    Man, I’ve seen Grace a few times over the years, but we just saw her show in Boston on Jan 20 and she is INCREDIBLE! One of the most talented, amazing, passionate, energetic performers I’ve EVER seen, and I’ve seen basically all the legends. I’ve always loved her music but hadn’t seen her perform in a while, and we walked away from that show realizing we just saw a living legend. Grace, thank you for taking that audience for the ride of a lifetime. INCREDIBLE.

    Grace IS the epitome of a Rock Goddess!!! Yet, she is so warm & down to earth!
    Grace IS The Best voice/artist of her generation! She ranks right up there as one of THE Greatest Rock vocalists Ever, along the likes of Anne Wilson, & Pat Benatar!
    I just saw her for the first time only weeks ago in N.Y. and she & the band were on🔥 FIRE!!!🔥
    I just could not contain myself, & had to leave my seat & dance my ass off on the level below! I had the BEST night of my life in AGES!!!!!
    I cannot wait to see her again the next time she comes around to my neck of the woods!
    Whenever I am having a shitty day/night, & feeling low, I Crank up her "Mother Road" CD and get transported back to that AWESOME Concert, & have my own personal dance party! It Always makes my day!!!!

    Kenny, If you want to live to 120 you have to loose the sunglasses outside ! The sun is your master clock and your eyes need to see unfiltered light to sync your circadian rhythm. You are a fantastic drummer and we don't want to loose you early in the set. Really enjoy your conversations !

    I've been going to see Grace since 2010, from little venues in CT to Radio City Music Hall. Even met her at the Vibes one year. She's a great songwriter, fabulous singer, and exciting performer. In any other music era she'd be a household name - but even so she has a huge and dedicated following. I saw both Kenny and Grace perform at the Love for Levon tribute in 2012, where Grace brought the Izod Center down with a soulful solo organ cover of "I shall be Released". If you haven't checked out her catalogue or her shows, do yourself a favor and dive in!!

      @@rickhimes Hey Rick.. yes 1998. I remember that show.. Performing at Radio City meant so much to me.. The Beacon and MSG also. I have performed in all those venues. My mom used to take me to Radio City to see the Rockets during X-Mas. so performing on that stage was amazing for me.
