Re: Elvis & the Roots, Port Chester (NY), March 12, 2014

I did not make the Brooklyn show but travelled from Florida for this and was disappointed . Sound was poor upstairs and the audience particularly in the VIP seats not interested, at least one of the couples needed to get a room. I think Steve was in the upper VIP seats to the right of the stage . I...

So many German dates, I hope they don't get cancelled because of poor ticket sales. If this solo tour was happening in the summer, my wife and I certainly would have considered a citytrip to Dublin, Edinburgh, Berlin or Vienna. Now I'm only going to Brussels and Amsterdam.

Diana is playing the same venue on the same date.
