Day 5: Amsterdam

Today I did a house concert in Amsterdam which was around the corner from the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh museum, and Concertgebouw.

​At the house concert, one lady was particularly engaged and asked me to sing something so I played/sang "You've Got to be a Football Hero to Get Along with the Beautiful Girls." She said I was a good singer, which is a compliment I rarely receive, so I assumed she was just being extra nice.

​She introduced herself to me after the concert as Xaviera Hollander. I was told later that she wrote a bestselling autobiography in 1972 called "The Happy Hooker."  I thought back to how she complimented my singing. Perhaps she has a history of telling men what they want to hear?
