Aw, I am so so happy to be here I, I really am, aw, thank you Now, I, I, I don't assume you all even know who I am, okay I know some do, that's good But some are like, "Nah, I was doing other things at the time or something", you know, it's, so For you I just want you to enjoy the music I'm gonna, I put a, I put a special setlist together for ya You know, we're gonna do a couple of hits, but, uh I wanted to play some songs that That mean a lot to me and I thought they might mean a lot to you because you know? But let me give you a little bit of a background actually Like the mayor said, the mayor I grew up in Leavenworth, Kansas Oh yеah, born and raised in Leavenworth And I undеrstand Kansas Kansas has always been in my heart, you know, I, I lived in California for awhile but Yeah, California But Kansas is, is, is really right here so When I was young, you know, in Leavenworth, we have a lot of prisons in Leavenworth And when I was very young, I was about, uh, eleven or twelve I was in a variety show that used to go around and perform in the prisons And of course we had like four men's prisons And at the time, the Kansas State women's penitentiary was part of the men's penitentiary And it was in Lansing And I remember singing there and I, I felt I felt very close the time that I sang to those women, they were very very appreciative And um, since then, ever since I My dream's come true and I was able to, you know Do what I wanted, I have always planned to come back and do a show For you all, for the inmates of the women's penitentiary So, man, just, just enjoy this evening Tonight you are just, you are just women loving music, okay?
