Hats off to professionalism under less than professional conditions:

[Pilgrim]

Fantastic combination of musicianship, good humor and showmanship!

[TBird1958]

That's grace under a lot of pressure!


The ability to keep one's cool while things fall apart around you is indeed the mark of a pro - she's wonderful.

[Dave W]

Definitely a one-of-a-kind performance!

[Hushnel]

Thanks, that was great and inspirational.

[Rob]

Splendid!
