"Unforgettable" Night

A friend and I went to see Natalie Cole in concert tonight. The night didn't start off too well.

On our way to the concert, we got caught in a huge traffic pile up. Then we got lost trying to find an alternate route. Then we got into argument.  By the time we arrived at the concert, over 45 minutes late, we were both pretty irritated. By this point, I thought the night was shot.

After another wait in the concert hall for a song break, we were finally led to our seats.  We sat down and upon seeing Ms. Cole and hearing her melodic voice singing a crowd fav, our irritation was immediately replaced by smiles.

"Unforgettable", This Will Be", and countless other classics... had us swaying, clapping and singing along with everyone in the intimate theater.  The 60-year-old songstress still had an amazing voice and looked stunning... even with her arm in a sling!















Oh, the power of great music... it soothes the savage beast... and the sulky, late patron.

It turned out to be a great night, thanks to an unforgettable lady.     Hat's off to Ms. Cole, a class act.

Stay Tuned :-)
