The Honolulu Star Bulletin reports -
Extract -
COSTELLO, who is accompanying Krall to Hawaii but not expected to play, suggested she not try to write lyrics per se, but feelings and the things she loved, imagistic phrases like "the perfume still on my mother's counter."
The Honolulu stop will allow Krall to relax in "my favorite place in the world."
"Hawaii is the only place I can really relax ..." she says.
She and Costello will vacation "someplace (here) where no one knows us." Krall is even considering surfing lessons.
