Piano bars . . . but not really that kind

Ok, I love the dueling pianos, say, at NYNY. But here in Memphis, I really enjoy going to Mollie Fontaine%26#39;s to hear Di Anne Price. There you can sit at the piano, and she makes an effort to engage everyone around her. She learns their names, makes conversation between (and sometimes during) songs, and just makes everyone around her feel special. She plays standards, with choice blues, country, and pop songs thrown in for good measure. Sometimes we even end up in a gospel sing along to end the evening.





Anyway, I fully well intend to have my fill of dueling pianos next month in Vegas, but does anyone know of a place that offers a piano bar experience that is intimate and a bit more grown up?

I was in Napolean%26#39;s (at the Paris) last weekend and it looked like we were the youngest people in there (early/mid 30%26#39;s)




You would probably enjoy Dian Diaz.

Its all about who pays the bucks to what tunes they play aswell!
