Fran, I'd buy you breakfast anytime. However, if your buddy joins us, he has to pay for his own . Look, you're right. I know for a fact that most of the casino acts ARE sequenced, but they don't have eight guys back there pretending to be an eight piece band. The audience KNOWS that the music is 'canned'. I think there is a difference. Hey, you guys are successful and have been for a long time, and that's the bottom line. Different strokes for different genre's and venues. Miles and Coltrane would go over like a lead balloon in a NH. Monk would probably get beaten to death with crutches, walkers and bedpans. You gotta give the audience what they want....or at least make 'em THINK they're getting what they want .

BTW, got any old videos of Donny doing the Electric Slide?......in his chicken hat.
