COME AS YOU ARE

first of all, i've never had so many emails welcoming me to a city prior to my arrival. secondly, i'm pretty sure it was also a record for the amount of audience members who sang the lyrics to my music. i certainly would have never guessed i'd receive all this love from PORTLAND, OREGON. the reception i got from the 1500 in attendance was out of this world! i was blown away.

maybe it's because tonight was only the second time i've performed in this part of the country. i did a show in SEATTLE about 12 years ago, and months later, KURT COBAIN told me by the time he and COURTNEY made it to the club, i had already done the show and left.

PORTLAND has a pretty hot club scene, with sweet unpretentious people. it's sad that everyplace in the world has a hotter club scene than what's currently happening in NEW YORK CITY. i have a feeling i'll be back in PORTLAND very soon. thanks, y'all... from the bottom of my heart.

here's a list of the used CD'S i bought in PORTLAND:

1. let your backbone slip...jayne county
2. city in the sky...the staple singers
3. victim of love...sir sharon aka elton john
4. no sound but a heart...sheena easton
5. the best of...andrea true connection
6. let's do it again...soundtrack/curtis mayfield
