Hi girl! I've just found out that you're "enjoying life" these days. I'm so glad you are and hey, I'm enjoying it too right now, 'cause while surfing, I've found two different versions of "Backroads of Georgia" and "Burn the Ships", in which the bass player Chet Gardiner played with you. And listening to them makes me SOOOOOOOO HAPPY! Well, enjoy tomorrow night's concert and please, let me know about it, ok? Ciao, ciao
