So. Lou Rawls!

The seats were great, the company was perfect, and Lou was magnificent. He was charming and funny and his voice melts me even more in person. What's more, he sang "Fine Brown Frame," my absolute favorite song that he's recorded.

The night was everything I needed. Except, perhaps, for the drunk/high girl right by the stage doing her own obnoxious version of the seat dance. Her boyfriend (or brother, depending who's opinion you listen to) needed to tie her arms to her chair. I'm surprised Lou didn't whack her over the head with his microphone.

After the show, Cel and I went out for a drink with the percussionist in the band. He had some fun anecdotes but, other than an appreciation for Lou Rawls, we seem to have very different interests. And we need to let Kyan loose on his hair.

On Tuesday, when I buy Britney's album (shut up!), I'm also going to pick up "Rawls Sings Sinatra."

Okay. Bed. I'm exhausted.
