Hey Y'all. I had such a great time at the listening party for the record last night in my hometown! (I'll post pictures soon)
Michele and her husband and son came and tried to buy me dinner..I ended up just getting a cup of tea..(which i didn't even get a chance to drink)...Thanks anyway Michele and family.
I was running around so much talking to people( I know I m supposed to be on vocal rest)...and doing short interview live on the radio through the night...and I sung with the awesome band they had there called the Rollex Band. The female lead singer,Baretta..was so full of energy,and the the male lead singer Keith was so cool.
I really enjoyed them so much. I was supposed to sing some songs from the album in between their breaks,but after they finished their first set and there was so much high energy in the place..there was no way on earth I was going to sing to some tracks. So I asked them if I could come and hang with them during the next set and they called me up on almost every song...Miss Baretta says she turning 51 next week..but she has a whole lot more energy than I do!
She inspired me so many ways last night..she has a wonderful stage presence. When she took a break I told the audience that she was my new teacher.
LoLo,the Quiet Storm radio personality who gave me this party has reallyy supported me over the years,doing her best to help get me out there even when the station wasn't able to play my music.
She's like one of the old school DJ's who would just play what they liked...any way,Thank Lolo..I felt like it was my birthday party..I was really spoiled last night.
I got an idea.. i'm going to ask Shanachie if they would be interested in holding Sweet Classsic Soul listening parties all of the states..maybe 6 major cities...
Well I want to take Jazzy out somewhere fun,so i'll talk to you all later....
Maysa
