Huey Lewis and the News!

I saw Huey Lewis and the News in concert a day or two ago. Now that's real musicians. They wrote their own tunes, they play their own music and they sound phenomenal live despite their age. Makes today's pop/pop-rock all the more depressing. But oh what a great night it was.

 

Their drummer did a very nice drum solo. His sound was amazing, some Yamahas. And he sings while drumming, which rocks my socks because it's hard.

Yes, they are very under rated. I saw them years ago, early 90s I think and it was one of the funnest concerts I have ever been to. What is really cool is they all share the spotlight, everyone is featured sooner or later. I had no idea they were still playing...

Yeah it was nice to see every player (even the horn extras not actually "band members") get the spotlight. They put on a great show. As for them still playing, I'm not sure how often they play, but I know that every year at the Wolf Trap park near Washington D.C. they play a concert. Heard about it a few months back, knew I had to go!
