The concert was fantastic. Sheila looked wonderful as always. The crowd was in good spirit. Pete, Juan, Sheila and her mom craked a few jokes. Sheila played drums, congas and timbales. She sang Glamour life and Love Bizarre and even Get up from James Brown.

She signed autographs and allowed pictures. I love her.

If someone can tell me how to post my pictures, I'll do that right away.

Peace

And St. Paul sat in and sang on a few numbers - including some Family jams!
Really a great show!

oh Malbena, import pics from your camera to your photobucket account, if you don't have one, go to www.photobucket.com and create an account. then import them, then under each picture there are 4 lines. Start a reply here in another window. In the photobucket window left click on the window next to img code. that will copy the pic. open up your reply window here and paste the pic. repeat this process until all the pics you want posted are here. Preview your topic to make sure it worked. Hope this helps

peace, L

Thank you Cookie. I wish I had known you were there and could have met you. I was wearing jeans and a black lace top. I was sitting with three other cool girls in the middle booth.

I just return from the 7pm show and loved it just the same.

peace.

Sheila made an interesting comment tonight. She said she was working on an album including Gloria Estefan, Earth Wind and Fire and then she said:"Let's see who else...Prince (she sounded as if she wasn't sure)... if he doesn't change his mind." As the crowd started talking she went on:" I'm just being real here, come you guys, you all know what's going on" and then added "we love him though, we love him"

no clue what this mean...but I hope it is something positive. Sounds strange!

In regards to the new album, in the KTLA interviw on her website I think she said it would be called "All Around" and would be out in August. I just checked her dad's website and found the following info about the status of the album. He wrote:

Now here is the latest regarding the Escovedo Family adventures: I know I mentioned the new CD that the E Family has been working on. Well, it is finally finished. We had a short delay in getting all of the special guests on the CD, so the record company has decided to release it the beginning of next year. The special guests are: Earth Wind & Fire, Gloria Estefan, Prince, Israel, Joss Stone, and a host of great musicians that made the music come to life. We will let you know the exact date of the release real soon.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for posting that. It does help. Now the question is, if the CD is all finished, why did Sheila made that comment on Sunday???

malbena said:

She said the same thing at the 9:30 Sunday show (about Prince changing his mind) and the crowd cracked.up.

Genesia said:

I was at the 9:30 show too.

I think she made the comment cause even if the album is complete, Prince may always say, "nah, take me off." But she may have also said it just to get the laugh as we all know how whimsical he can be.

Seems like the family had a nice time playing The Dakota and they said they'd be back next year.

Ah! They're good friends. I don't think it's a big deal she said that after all. We all know Prince changes his mind very often and Sheila better than anyone.
I just hope he doesn't change his mind and stays on the album.

malbena said:

I agree. We are all accustomed to Prince's unpredictable behavior. It is just who he is.

There is an update to my comment about the album name. According to Sheila's official site, the album is named Love's All Around and will be relased next year. Check out her site http://sheilae.com to read the Smooth Jazz News interview.
