I’M ALWAYS looking for ways to reinvigorate myself when I’m on a performing spree. As I write, I’m in Southern California, getting ready to start hopping on tour stops until March 19. True, it isn’t a long touring period, and with planes, cars and hotels, each stop will feel like a blur.
AH, FEBRUARY, the month of love, is upon us. Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. Plans are being made for romantic dinners, bouquets of flowers, the works. My brother, sister-in-law and husband are planning, too, but not in the way that you think.
I PICKED my daughter up from school today. After she finished her lunch, she had a bath and then dressed up in her full-on ballet outfit—leotards, tights, a sheer ballet skirt and proper ballet shoes.
IT’S BEEN a relatively quiet 2011 as far as gigs are concerned. My next big concert won’t be until Valentine’s Day, when I’ll be in the beautiful city of Bangkok (at the Queen Sirikit Convention Center, performing with Gerard Salonga and the Bangkok Symphony Orchestra), so I’ve been busying myself with other stuff.
