About My Shows
-I look for songs with huge mass appeal. Decades of experience has taught me which songs always work. Besides these time-tested songs,
I have a wide range of mainstream hits that are not the typical songs every band plays. Many guests have commented on the wide variety.
-Taking audience requests is a great way of interacting if the situation calls for it. I've found a good way to make it work is having song books of all my tunes to pass around. It gets the audience involved with myself and each other.
-Sometimes I will wing it and play a song even if it's not on my list.
-I'm always adding new songs to fit the venue, and to add variety.
