I got there early and found people already on top of tables, bookshelves, vying for a good view. Lyle looked amazed at all the people who turned out to see him. Afterwards, he signed CDs and posed for pictures for the entire line (a process that took hours). When I got to the table, I blurted out that the day's concert had been a real celebration for me, as it was my last day on the job with a "boss from hell" - as of that moment I was unemployed, but happy. He opened his big blue eyes wide, and looked surprised - and on my CD he wrote, "congratulations!" Memorable personal moment:
