We are tonight, in Alabama, waiting to perform tomorrow evening for a crowd of loving and loyal fans in Birmingham. This place reminds me of a song by a wonderfully talented woman, that plays within my mind whenever I am near to this place. Just as I hear Elvis in Memphis, although I wonder if now I will also be unable to forget that there is a place left for Lisa Marie, there "in the damn back yard".
I do hope I hear both voices together when I go.
The tour is grueling for an old woman, such as myself and I must admit that although the reviewers speack kindly, saying we carry the show off without missind Christine at all, I miss Christine. Another female presence there to share energy, it is odd to have to flow alone. And for me, she is missed greatly, yet I am also enjoying myself. It's a rare thing to be able to go back and revisit a place you thought you had forgotten.
I am fortunate.
