Hey girlie! Thanks! I haven't been up to much. Just gigging on Friday's and Saturday's at Chef's of NY...looking for new gigs or someone to perform with... :) What have you been up to? I had a baby and got married, so I haven't been out as much this past year.

Hey Mary Elizabeth Boutté, I just took this quiz, Which Oscar Nominated Film is Your Life?. Check out my result on my profile, then go take the quiz and then see what you get!
Having a b-day party May 17th ... hope you can come.
Mary, I just want to let you and Jazzoni know I once again was beyond pleased in your anniversary celebration last nite!
And kudos to Dale's debut of "You Pays Your Dues". Also, dear Mary, once again your charm, photogenic appearance and smile (matches your lyrical style) added delicacy and beauty to an already wonderful ambience.
Mary, I've been meaning to compliment you on your take on "Misty". I don't recall hearing it sung so beautifully at the tempo you do it in!
Who's on keyboard? You compliment each other exquisitely. Your smile comes through in your voice too. (I can visualize it). An unusual, wonderful blend. ~~Leo
Hey, Miz Lovely it was so nice to see you again this morning..."We" had been commenting just the other day that it had been a while since we'd seen you. I hope you are well. Hugs.
Mary, saw your bulletin about deleting expletives on MySpace, and I had to smile. Bravo to you for even EXPECTING such standards! (Don't know if you can hope to succeed, though. Such purity...)
On another matter, can we invite you to go see Kathleen's play at the Prospect? This Friday (opening night) with us or this Saturday with just me?
What a totally wonderful performance last nite at The Barking Dog Grill!! Keep that angelic smile, Mary. And those gentle salsa moves are a nice touch. Shows how much you enjoy what you're doing. And, guys, who wouldn't enjoy performing with you? You were all in the pocket. Well, most of the time. *smile* ~~Leo
