Diana Krall stopped by Carillon Park before heading to Fraze

From Martin Gottlieb, Staff Writer

If you saw a striking blonde with twins toddlers at or near Carillon Park on Tuesday, feel free to assume it was Diana Krall. The piano-playing, combo-leading jazz chanteuse was appearing that night at the Fraze Pavilion.

Were you spotted at the Diana Krall concert?

At the Fraze, she drew a big crowd of people who apparently didn’t mind missing all the Michael Jackson stuff on television. She came on stage wearing sunglasses, but it apparently wasn’t a jazz thing, just a sun thing. It was beautiful evening. She said she and the combo weren’t used to sun. Ultimately, the shades came off.

She told the crowd that she had been in Dayton long enough to see “quite a bit.” When she had asked at the Marriott Hotel about a park to bring the kids to, she was told about the Carillon being “across the street.”

With some exaggeration, no doubt, she said that she was still looking a half hour later, having set out on a walk.

However, she was enthusiastic about Culp’s Cafe at the park, recommending several items.

Then, the Culps subject having passed, but the Dayton subject still being in the air, she said to the crowd, “I was going to tell you something else, but I decided not to.” Hmmm.

By the way, the kids’ dad, Elvis Costello, is appearing later in the summer at the Fraze - at EXACTLY the same ticket prices.
