I don't think many folk realize how talented he is. We just had a 4 piece series on Dion presented by NPR radio. I don’t think many folk realize how talented he is.

Dion is one hell of a singer-songwriter, and your story illustrates the power and effect music has on real people. Have a great Christmas. Thanks for the great story.

He was with his wife and sister and he introduced me they were very nice, Dion was a very hip nice guy and i was wearing a baseball cap of The Band had I known just how much he had in common with them or had he asked I would have taken him over to Levon Helm's for them to meet..! At one point this girl I knew who read fortunes in Woodstock at a little stand for the tourists recognized Dion and asked me to ask him if he wanted his fortune read she said for free.. Dion said to me "I know my fortune.." A reference to his faith and he could see I got it too.. I have seen Dion doing some of his religious songs on EWTN and I can hear the timing and influence of Levon in the arrangement he is doing here of Nadine..! Merry Christmas this blog of yours is always a treat... TJ Colatrella aka TJ Cole.. I hung out for a few hours with Dion on Sunday in Woodstock NY..!
