To Bobby for invitng me to perform. Also, the regular HARMONY patrons who come to see my gigs every time!
Greg Ranger, a New Zealand blues harp player sat in on a few blues songs:
Chicago and Mr Jellyroll Baker.... but NOT House of the Rising Sun [SEE VIDEOS]. Thanks, buddy!
Moray Crawford, who has his own band, also came to check out my music, and provided great positive energy and some fun 60s era dancing actions.
Fred Merz, one of my guitar and bass students dropped in to see his 'sensei' perform.
All 3 consumed large amounts of the amber ale.
Fred turned the lyrics cards during my performance of KAMA HEN KAMA HEN OSAKA BEN SONG.
Also, everyone used the QR CODE I provided that took them to my GCG website page for the OSAKA BEN SONG LYRICS.
My other original song OSOJI NINJAS gave everyone a laugh. Very pleased that Moray commented "That reminded me of a FRANK ZAPPA style offbeat comedy song." In fact, Zappa's song style influenced me when I created OSOJI NINJAS!!
Great to have so many requests for some of my regular cover songs:
HOTEL CALIFORNIA, COUNTRY ROADS. STAND BY ME. PLAY THAT FUNKY MUSIC, I FEEL GOOD, and, of course LONG TRAIN RUNNING.
LAYLA, FIRE AND RAIN, DON'T THINK TWICE, CAN'T FIND MY WAY HOME, BLACK WATER and RIKKI DON'T LOOSE THAT NUMBER added 'light and shade' to the HIGH ENERGY songs in the gig.
SWEET HOME ALABAMA finished the night on a high energy note!
