One of the benefits of living in New York is all the great shows, plays, music, and culture that abounds in the area. I got picked to see the show this evening. Took the day off and going to have some dinner and see Dave.

Almost thought the 10 inches of snow we had today was going to put an end to this.

Any Paul Schaffer fans out there?

Actually I went to high school In Port Arthur Ontario (before the name change to what it is today "Thunder Bay"), up at the top of Lake Superior.
Paul lived in Fort William which was the neighbouring city. Port Arthur & Fort William amalgamated to become Thunder Bay. I believe Paul went to Fort William Collegiate, while I went to Lakeview High.

My father actually did a short stint (substitutue)as a music teacher in his school.
...Enjoy the show....I'm envious!!

You're right about the singing, Tony...UGH!

And that James Brown thing....also UGH!

Another bright spot is Will Lee...great player and has a very profitable career as a singer and writer of jingles.

Well...it was VERY loud!!

We sat front row center!!! I guess they thought my wife and I were enthusiastic!

His Hammond sounds wonderful and he also plays a Roland JD-800 synth for his Brass sounds. I couldn't quite make out the rest of his equipment. I almost caught a pick from the Bass Player. Man that guy jumps up and down alot.

Guest was Kirsty Alley and Dave was non-stop with the fat jokes.

What an enjoyable time!!!

Sounds like you had a great time.
The singer, he had on, I don't recall her name, did some song that was very reminicent of Lucinda William's "I changed the Locks", especially the melody.
