I love your substacks -- keep em coming! Was nice to read more about your dad and your Chicago connections. One of first times I saw Ann in a solo concert was in Chicago probably 30 years ago. Am glad trip was a triumph for you!

What a great homecoming! You also have a fascinating schedule coming up. For years we have rented cars for long trips with Sirius. Spent many happy hours with Seth et al. Have fun!

I do! June- July is super busy. I’ll recover in August! Seth’s show on Sirius XM is perfect for long trips.

It’s wonderful to hear about your trip back to Chicago …. Memories of your dad, a fabulous event at a gorgeous venue, sharing with your son, your sister, and so many friends and supporters from your life in Chicago … I love that Toby was sitting with Ann … icing on an already scrumptious cake! Thank you for all your substacks … it’s a joy to read them.
