• "Ooooh, this lady is sooo sexy, & also a very talented Jazz singer. Should be well worth the probably extortionate ticket price. Dunno where I'll be in Feb, but definitely be attending the nearest concert to where I am. Now If they'll only bring over Norah Jones I'll really be in heaven!!!

• "Even though I've been listening to her music for 30 yrs or so, the song 'Killing Me Softly..." still always reduces me to an emotional 'mess', as does "The First Time..." Yes, Roberta, you "kill me softly with your songs"."

• "I went to this event last year. It was GREAT!!! Very informal friendly atmosphere, with some of Aussie's best Blues & Jazz artists. Dutch Tilders is a living blues man in the best traditions & partied with us all, into the all-hours. Phil Manning was one of the two vital members of Aussie legends Chain, (also Matt Taylor & Chain, also Matt Taylor/Phil Manning Band), and although he has mellowed out a bit in his middle age, is a truly amazing guitarist, and a wonderful personality. Last year also featured the amazing George Washingmachine, who will be sadly missed this year, also Wizard & Oz, a couple of colorful characters who also were the life of the after-concert party. This year will be even better though, with a bigger lineup, including Tauranga's own Righteous Brothers (these guys are a legend) & the fabulous Jan Preston. I can't wait to meet her!!! Also, tickets are HALF the price this year, so we'll all be able to take a friend. DON"T MISS THIS ONE GROOVY P"
