    She is one amazing bass player. I will never forget how we were - totally by chance - seated next to each other in the backstage area at some festival, like 15 years ago. I did not know who she was, she was all modesty and never even gave an inkling of a suggestion she was a bass player herself. A few years later I recognized her on stage, with Prince. Say no more :). It did give me kind of an inferiority complex that I have never really recovered from since. But everyone has to know his place on the ladder. Rightly so.
