I saw her in Fort Worth last spring. She was amazing! I got to meet her afterward. What a generous and sweet woman. I love Audra.

I had always liked Audra but I never got why she was so special until I saw her last year at the University of Michigan. She blew me away! If I hadn't spent my night seeing Donna McKechnie at Meadowbrook(for free I might add) I would have totally been at Audra's concert. Glad you got the opportunity to experience of seeing Audra live.

She was to come to Austin two years ago and cancelled just a few hours before the show. I was CRUSHED. I keep praying she'll come back down this way.

Edit:
She doesn't have an official website, does she? Is there a place to look up her tour dates?

One of my best friends saw her last night, as well, and said she was astonishing. Do you go to Michigan State, theaterjunkie?

That McGriddle story was so funny I couldn't stop laughing all though When Did I Fall In Love. Her facial expressions were to DIE for! She told the group at stage door that she has never even had a McGriddle, and that its her goal to have one now.

HOSING THE FURNITURE!
I wanted a recording of that too!!!

She's definitely doing an American Songbook Conert at Lincoln Center next month.
and it will be broadcasted on pbs.
and on her new album...

she's definitely covering "Dividing Day"
and a rufus wainwright song.

i love everything she does.
it's kind of an obsession.
