Tammy and I enjoyed The New Standards Valentine’s Concert at The Woman’s Club of Minneapolis tonight. The emcee introduced this as a hopeful first show to become a tradition for Valentine’s day. We’ve seen The New Standards so many times and we’ve even seen them at the Woman’s Club, however it was in the theater and this was a more intimate setting in the dining room. The performance was good but the sound was a bit lacking. I felt the speakers and amplification was too small for the room, and I didn’t see a sound person working the dials. It also seemed like Chan was “off” in some way, he wasn’t his typical witty self.
