Portraits Of Boston: 'I Trust My Luck'

“I used to manage Ravi Shankar, and his daughter Norah Jones is playing here tonight. They told me that the show is sold out, so I thought, If I just hang around, somebody’s going to show up with an extra ticket.

So I was just thinking about my life philosophy: I never really take ‘no’ for an answer, and I trust my luck. I’ve traveled all over the world this way. I have no doubt that I’m going to find a ticket somehow, even though I don’t know how.”
