Theatrical Thursday

Wednesday night I went to Slide to see the Nina Simone tribute show by Lias Schouw. Lisa I must say is a very talented performer and what a unique voice, and I would love to her more of her singing other songs.

Not being an afficionado of Nina Simone, or even being able to name a Nina Simone song, I was open minded yet unsure of what to expect of the show.

Although I very muched enjoyed the performance by Lisa, and was surprised at not only the variety of songs and indeed the amount of songs that I did actually know, just sung by other people, but - yes there is always a but - I will have to say that I am not a fan of Nina Simons style of singing.

Rick of course was pherklemp and n arriving home immedialty put on some real Nina Simone, but alas I liked that even less then the show. Still we can't all like the same things I guess.

I will say though that if anyone is a Nina Simone fan, then you really should go along and see the show.

Do svedaniya,
