    It's time to hand out some show tickets and a C.D.

    Angela — you've got it — two tickets for Thursday night's show are

    — surprise — Rachel, we have two tickets for Friday night's show for
    you as well.

    I'm going to send Wendy your email addresses and she will
    send you the details. If you don't hear from her right away, email me
    your contact info.

    By random drawing, the C.D. goes to… Elizabeth S. Email me your
    shipping address, Elizabeth, and we'll drop your present in the mail right

    As we wished—yay!—Wendy is game to offer two tickets to her show in New York City next week at The Metropolitan Room, featuring songs by composers as diverse as Cole Porter, Joni Mitchell, and Wendy’s collaborator, Michele Brourman. This exciting event celebrates Wendy’s debut album, Breathing, and is tied together with entertaining vignettes from Wendy’s colorful family—a fun and personal show.

    Wendy is my fiercely-fabulous sister-in-law. She is both a talented singer and a charming storyteller. She’s hilarious, in fact.

    …And it’s killing me that we missed her opening night last week in Los Angeles! Anyone want to go to the New York show in my stead? I’ll sit on your lap in spirit.

    As Mitch Ellis of the performing group Chambers, Herbert & Ellis
    put it, after seeing the Los Angeles performance last week, “Wendy Lane
    Bailey's show was truly grand… Under Michele Brourman's artful musical
    direction she put on a really terrific show. Beautiful song selection,
    sensitive phrasing, clear storytelling and a warm rich voice. Kinda the
    whole package.”
