Johnnyk scolding from Dineen...

Johnny K, you disappoint me so! Not a word about the Shaboo All Stars Reunion held on Saturday, August 18th in Willimantic! And your girl, Christine Ohlmann, was there together with the organist from Saturday Night Live!

The show opened with Jonathan Edwards being his folksy self...he now has a Jeep commercial! Following the hour of reminiscing with Jonathan was The James Cotton Blues Band which brought the "field" down. The show closed with David Foster and the reunion band (now known as the Mohegan Sun All-Stars). Cliff Goodwin, their music director, who spent many years with Joe Cocker, was outrageous as ever....David still has that rock voice, and he and Christine were great together. As a bonus Cocker's back up singers accompanied David on two of Cocker's hits. The crowd especially loved "You Can Leave Your Hat On."

You, my dear, missed the boat on this one!

(johnnyk note: I did indeed mention the event in my post of August 9, but I agree, it was a party not to be missed!)
