Kim Vatis - NBC 5 News Chicago - Taste of Chicago - "Karen! You are all such a blast.
We had so much fun meeting you and rocking with you for NBC 5 News at the Taste of Chicago.
Not just a great band, but great people. You made our news show. The quick rocker lesson worked.
Some people thought I actually played your really cool heart-shaped guitar!
Rock On! My best, Kim Vatis NBC 5 News Chicago!"
