Dude. Seriously. Eevery song?
SHORT REVIEW FOR A SHORT SHOW >>>
Last night Daryl Hall and John Oates hit the Puyallup Grandstand stage with a five-piece backing band taking a bunch of moms and dads on a trip through their hits, including opening song "Maneater," which MTV played every hour from 1981-84. One by one, the band cruised through:
Encore One:
Encore Two:
One, two, three ... yes, a 12-song concert. The aged crowd finally slowly rose for "She's Gone," clapped for the saxophone player with the 4-foot long gray hair during every solo, and didn't start start dancing until the ninth song, except for the dude pictured above who danced every song. Hall still can hit the high notes at age 62. Oates has given up the goofiness. They turned "I Can't Go For That" into an extended jam, which worked. They tried to jam on "Rich Girl," which didn't work.
Being uncool for an hour, dancing like a dork to songs that marked major moments of my junior high years, was, well, cool.

Okay, Ron, you left out Maneater - it was the opener. :-)

Wade,
I actually mention it in my opening paragraph. I should have added it to the list. I'm "out of touch."

Oops, I forgot how to read. :-)
