Andrea and scielle, I'm happy for you!

[Bud]

Sure hope you can both catch a concert!

Too bad there won't be a London concert in late Oct. Looking for an excuse to go to London for the San Francisco 49ers - Denver Broncos football (American-version) on 31 Oct...

Have front row centre seats for London this Sat. Will take my camera. I hope it doestnt rain like last time.....

[scielle]

I'll be there too. Not a fan of the venue, but guess it'll have to do!

[Bud]

Have a great time at the concert! Looking forward to any recap you can provide. Weather seems to be looking really good for you - especially compared to the heat wave we've been having here on the East Coast of the US...

Classical and Jazz: Preview - Diana Krall Kenwood Picnic Concert - July 10

A so-so preview of the Hampstead concert. But the author has nothing to worry about. As we all know, live in concert she swings hard. Really hard

Going by the blog mention of the Copenhagen show you might be in luck

"I have never seen her perform either live or on TV, but we own several of her CDs and I really enjoy her smoky voiced renditions of classic jazz and blues songs. Her CDs are usually 80% mellow and 20% high energy. At tonight's concert she opted to flip those figures around.

When the concert was over, we still had over an hour until our train left the station across the street from Tivoli Gardens back to Hässleholm, so we decided to walk around the park, people watch and grab a little dessert.

It was fun to hear several people, me included, either humming, whistling or softly singing one of her concert songs as we strolled Tivoli on another spectacular Danish evening.

"When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek . . ."

Thanks jampot. Pretty accurate observation, in my opinion!

[scielle]

Um... OK, except she didn't play Temptation. What kind of journalism is this?!

[jampot]

Scielle, set list seemd short to me. Can anyone list it?

[scielle]

I didn't write it down, but the show was less than 1.5hrs, including 1-song encore, and the unrecorded tunes were:
Jockey Full of Bourbon (Waits)
Wide River to Cross (Buddy Miller)
Cheek to Cheek
Twist of Fate (Dylan)

[Bud]

Thanks scielle and jampot!

Wide River to Cross is new for this tour, I believe...

I have just a few photos now. I wasnt able to take many as security spent most of the night stopping people....

Yeah, I saw some Twitter post from the venue (I think?) saying Diana specifically requested no photos, so security spent the night distracting everyone instead... A little surprised and disappointed to her that.
