I know we all hang out at the Music Center, Disney Hall, The Broad and
the Geffen, but about an hour south of us is the extraordinary
Segerstrom Concert Hall. This is a new building that complements their
legitimate theatre. To say that it is gorgeous is an understatement. I
went down there with
Andrea Marcovicci and
Michael Karm for
Kenny G's
concert with the Pacific Symphony Orchestra. OK. I know what you're thinking about Kenny G. ... First) I wanted
to go play with Andrea and Michael; Second) I wanted to see the Hall;
Third) We were having dinner at the Hall in the Patina-owned Weatherby's
Rouge. The food and service were spectacular, and the Hall was
breathtaking. NOW--Kenny. MUCH TO MY SHOCK, I REALLY ENJOYED HIM. Yes,
his records are sappy white bread. But in concert, he's a brilliant jazz
musician, and he has a rhythm section that is HOT! What musicians! I
didn't want them to stop playing. So there. And, we met Kenny back stage
and he's a really nice guy.
