TC in DC for XM

I got this e-mail at 10:39 last night, but apparently was in bed by then. I wish I could have replied sooner, because this is something I'd totally call in sick for (especially since tomorrow is just a library orientation day for my kids, and since I've taken something like 5 days off in 4 years, most for my eye surgeries.)

I sent an e-mail this morning. We'll see. I do have my fingers crossed, but I'm pretty sure it's probably filled up by now.

I haven't seen her live since 1996, my first ever real concert.



See Tracy Live this Thursday at XM...FREE!

Attention DC-area residents, XM Satellite Radio, America's no. 1 satellite
radio service, is pleased to invite friends and fans of Tracy Chapman to be
a part of an audience for a special taping with Tracy on the afternoon of
Thursday, September 15, 12 noon, at XM's Washington, DC broadcast
studios. We are very excited to have Tracy participate in this recording
session as part of XM's Artist Confidential Series, which are intimate
programs of talk and music with legendary recording artists, like Don Henley,
Brian Wilson, PhilCollins, Tori Amos and Bonnie Raitt.

The seating for this very special program is extremely limited and
approximately 30 people will be chosen on a "first-come, first-served"
basis determined by when their email is received at XM. So if you are
100% confident that you can join Tracy in Washington, DC on Thursday
afternoon, please send an email to live@xmradio.com and be sure to
include in the body of the email your full name, contact information (in
case the session is cancelled or is postponed) and the name of a single
guest -- if you wish to bring someone. Your subject line must read
"Tracy Chapman" or it will not be considered for this offer.

Everyone will get an auto-response to let you know that XM received your
email. If you are selected to attend, you will receive a second email
with the exact time and further instructions.
