Hi Steve,
I second that. The energy in his show is absolutely amazing. Jill & I saw
him in Manchester's Broadwater Hall in 2004. For nearly two hours his band
( 2 drummers, 2 guitarists, 2 electric bassists, Hammond B3, two tenors and
a trumpet/straw boss) accompanied the man himself on vocals, grand piano and
gymnastics.
It's a salutary lesson to all. Keep the audience involved and happy!
Best
Louis

"Not specifically OKOM, but Little Richard's Act should have a lot of
influence on the way we musician's perform.
If you get the chance, see him."
