Dino has such a sweet, tender, dreamy quality to him. Look at the warmth in his eyes and how it just emanates from his face [both photos here]. No wonder he and Leonard are so close. So strong; yet, that openness,vulnerability, and trust... an idealism still intact. That's how I read his face... those qualities unusually so. I love faces.

Thanks so much Linda! How on earth do you find out all the info that you have at your fingertips....amazing! However, as with so many of us, this year (actually almost 2 years now :roll: ), has been financially devoted to my one and only...Leonard! Next year will be the time to follow the others :D

Hi mnkyface!

YES YES YES! Isn't it wonderful :D :D :D Wouldn't it be fabulous if Dino decided to do this throughout the US tour! OMG, I was just watching it at work with a friend and we were both laughing! I think I'll have a smile on my face for the rest of the day...and for the next 2 dozen times I watch it! :D :D :D

Leonard is perfect...in fact they are all perfect...and funny...and it's all just so cool!

Diana

oh heck, this one deserves a couple more... :D :D :D

The same videographer, joshudog, had two other clips of Dino in performance with:

(1) Lou Rawls - saxaphone solo at .20
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iyQWtaS ... re=channel

-and-

(2) Vanessa Williams - flute solo "with hair" at 2.40

That is a very sweet video that Dino made for all of the world to share... a day in the life.

The ending of it reminds me of my earlier observations and comments:
Dino has such a sweet, tender, dreamy quality to him. Look at the warmth in his eyes and how it just emanates from his face [both photos here]. No wonder he and Leonard are so close. So strong; yet, that openness,vulnerability, and trust... an idealism still intact. That's how I read his face... those qualities unusually so. I love faces.
I enjoyed Dino's sweet, flirty, man-woman teasing and laughter on the bus.

So much warmth in Sharon's eyes, smile, voice, and expression. Leonard, as always, so sincere and sweet.

Sleep well everyone... other concerts soon.

I had a dream las night where I was in Mexico with a friend sightseeing.
We were going to see some famous tile floor and when we got to our car
that happened to be a white and mint green 1957 chevy convertible (top down), Dino was there waiting for us.
My friend had the car keys but we looked at each and both said Dino should drive this car!
And he got in to the driver's seat! :D :D :D

I'm just putting the link for Dino's new VBlog in this thread - a terrific one with Javier.

And I thought I should put these two nice pictures I have of Dino here as well. :lol: From after the Philly show -

Dino. You just got it goin' on. What can I say.

Haha. One of those times when truth is stranger [and funnier] than fiction. When I clicked on the link to see Leonard's intro of Dino [and his sweet smile], this is the message that filled the otherwise blank screen that filled up my monitor's space:
500 Internal Server Error
Sorry, something went wrong.

A team of highly trained monkeys has been dispatched to deal with this situation.

Tee-hee... I'M ELATED that I'm coming, Esther... and I'm really looking forward to meeting you! Thanks for your comments :D .
