Saw her new concert last night here in Los Angeles. It was wonderful. It started at 8 :10 pm and lasted well over 2 hours with no intermission. She sounds great. 8 costume changes. Lots of celebritis in the audience. I tell you; she tore the roof off from the theater. Amazing.

was she sober? (Oh my -- did I really say that...of course she was, she wasn;t in Arizona).

Really -- I do love me some Miss Ross....even if she is a convicted felon...

She was fabulous. Even though every time she went for a costume change we all joked that she was getting a bump.

I saw Ms. Ross LIVE! in Central Park back in the 70's . She was fabulous then and still amazes me today. She truly has a style of her own....and her wardrobe alone is worth a fortune!

K - I was there both nights, too. We'll have to trade stories.

Glad to hear about the concert, Iris. I saw her in a semi-private concert in CT in June. She still has it going on!

Addy -- yet another example of us being separated at birth..

Iris -- I'd love to see those sometime -- the night ot rained was so sureal -- thousands and thousands of people and yet in total control when things should have been pure pandemonium....

SHe was in great voice both nights...

If you love me -- leave the park!

LOL! I didn't think anyone would recall thatconcert in the Park. Yes, I was in town for both shows. Simply one of the most memorable solo concerts I've ever attended.
