Soooo excited! Just got tickets to see Dionne Warwick in April.

Really good seats at a reasonable price, at the Lowell (MA) Auditorium. I never thought I'd see her before one of us died!

1. Hope she sings Alfie!

I’m very envious (in a good way). Yeah!

[Croney]

2. I predict she will. Now I can't stop singing Do You Know the Way to San Jose.

[MLAA]

5. You only have a couple of months to sing it over and over till the concert!

3. I would be too!

I saw her do a concert in her home. I think it was during the pandemic, you paid for a ticket and given a code to be able to stream, she is still kicking it!

[Croney]

4. That was nice of her!

6. I saw her with Burt Bacharach about 15 years ago

They played all their hits and if you psychically transport yourself back to the 1960s & 70s, it’ll be great fun. I was a huge fan of them both.

As a musician, I suggest you keep your expectations modest.

Have a blast!

7. I know that at 83, her peak performances are behind her,

so I'll be happy with whatever she gives me. You saw a great show!

[PJMcK]

8. We had a lot of fun

It was at the Westbury Music Fair on NY’s Long Island. The venue is about as suburban middle-of-the-road as you could find! But we had good seats and the sound system was pretty good, (a hallmark of Bacharach’s music). All of the songs were their classics and the audience loved the show!

The musicians were made up of two groups. The first was Bacharach’s core rhythm section of BB on piano, a second keyboardist, a guitarist, a drummer/percussionist, a bass player and I think a trumpet/flugelhorn player and a saxophone/woodwind player. The second group made up the rest of the small orchestra consisting of strings and additional woodwinds. I don’t recall any backup vocalists. Everyone played well.

I hope you enjoy the concert!

9. She just did "Finding Your Roots" the other night

It's probably on the PBS website if you missed it.

10. I did! Thank you.
