Then it suddenly appeared, a neon oasis in the darkness. I wanted to hear the excellent non hit cuts from his many many great albums but it was rare to hear them at a show until the day his Father died. Same with the third time. Why?

They were exceptionally good and DACs steel player sat in with them. N/A.

His band setup included two keyboards flanking him on the left and right, some weird percussionist guy, and struck the vibe of an underfunded and unrehearsed amateur church band that had set up in the food court of a mini mall in some forgotten region of scary, small-town USA preaching to inbreeds and introverts circa 1987..
