This is my first long tour with Pink Martini since March 2020, when the SARS-COVID-19 Pandemic stopped us for good. I never imagined this human universal adversity would bring so much learning for me. Since chopping accidentally my index finger main tendon while camping the 4th of July weekend to seeing super healthy family members leave this world in the short time of a week due to Covid pre-vax. Imagine how grateful I am when I get to do what I love.
