Conversation about: Kenny G provides Hope in Harmony

I was in the audience for Kenny G. and wished I could have bid on the sax but i didn't have one of the VIP seats and couldn't get a bid card. Next time! I can't believe Kenny G came out early before the concert with the auctioneer. I have never seen any artist to do that before. I thought they were great, so cool for Sacramento! What generous man Kenny G is, he gave away 2 saxes that night. I guess they raised 50,000 with the angel wing thing, but thats just a guess.
