We haven't heard a hit from Macy Gray in about nine years. So imagine my surprise when she arrived an hour late to her performance today. Sigh. And yes, I was supposed to introduce her onto the stage. So, I waited... and waited... and waited some more.
Truthfully, I felt sorry for her band, who went on stage at the appropriate time, only to find out she wasn't anywhere on the premises. So, like the amazing professionals that they were, they held a jam session for an hour, until their lead songstress could arrive. Truly, they were amazing! I could have listened to them all day...
But you know what they say: "Good things come to those who wait." And let me tell you... When Macy Gray finally did arrive, she sounded FABULOUS!! Her new album The Sellout just came out on Tuesday, so she performed some songs from it, and she absolutely blew everyone away. Worth the wait, totally.
And I'm glad I had my little orange Canon PowerShot on-hand to capture one of the most beautiful images of the afternoon. Of course, I did boost the color a smidge, only b/c the backlighting was so atrocious. But I think the picture turned out rather lovely. Don't you?
