NYC: ERIC COMSTOCK AT CAFE NOCTAMBULO AT PANGEA
Eric Comstock continues his residency at New York's newest music venue, CAFE NOCTAMBULO AT PANGEA(178 Second Avenue, NYC - 212-995-0900) from 8:00 pm to midnight every Tuesday night. An acknowledged master of the American Songbook, Comstock has appeared at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and virtually every important nightclub in New York and across the country. He is one of only a handful of singer/pianists who can command a room merely by sitting at the piano, singing and telling stories. In addition to his extensive knowledge of repertoire, Comstock has a seemingly unending supply of anecdotes about the songs, the writers, and the stars who sang them. His unique combination of musicianship, history and charisma creates an experience that is as entertaining as it is musically savvy, and his audiences feel they've been to a terrific party where the music and the stories have been equally great.

Arnstein, a South Bend, IN native, moved to New York City where she began (among other things) singing in supper clubs and restaurants. After her life took a different turn, Diane put her passion for music on hold. After meeting her producer, Ralph Lampkin, Jr, during a summer visit to South Bend, she decided it was a good time to return to that passion. The material Diane has chosen, is a mixture of new songs mixed with classic standards Diane has loved for years. Songs include: "Can't Help Lovin that Man", "I Loved", the title song written by Amanda McBroom "I Love Men" and the classic comedic take on the opposite sex, "The Gentleman is a Dope!".
