I liked Feinstein’s and can’t believe it was my first visit there (or its predecessors). What did I like? The nightclub vibe. The gracious and accommodating staff. The intimacy with Ms. Buckley (we were in the second ‘row’ of tables). An appreciative and respectful audience with manners. I didn’t check the time but I think the show was about 45-50 minutes. The volume was just right; it was mic’ed but was not overly loud. If anything, it could have even been a tad louder. Her bass player is very handsome and great eye candy. : ) She sang all sort of unexpected songs (unexpected to me), some from older albums and some from her new Ghostlight CD. My friend who has seen her perform many times before, both cabaret and theater, adores her version of ‘Meadowlark’ and was a bit bummed that wasn’t included. No ‘Memory’ but I’m assuming she has moved on from these former standards of hers. She told a riotous story of being in Brigadoon in college and how she went up while singing ‘My Mother’s Weddin’ Day,’ and alternated between the story and the song. Wonderful!
