It's been too long - and we got cheerfully reprimanded by Phil and Tony for being away. But it was fantastic to be back. The sound was incredible, the people were responsive and stayed for the whole show, and everybody had a fantastic time.
We had the pleasure of inviting Krissy Mathews and and lovely singer from Australia named Cloey (who did a great job on At Last), and in the second set Chris Sharley joined us for a BB King cover. But the regular band did a really outstanding job.
We did two sets, with a brief intermission. I gotta say - these gigs are TOO SHORT! I have to leave out half the set! The horn section has all these great parts worked out, but there are a couple of tunes that we just haven't had time to play so far. One of them is Streets Of Downtown, which (if I do say so myself) is a great song. But you can only do so many slow tunes in a set...
Anyway, it was a great gig, and we're going to have to figure out how to get back here next year or face the "wrath of Phil"!
