He is such a good singer. I have always been amazed by his tone, his range, his ability to blend, and his phrasing. He's a funny guy. We were playing... in Maine, .... as Hurricane Irene approached, he quipped "Why do I feel like the band on the Titanic?" ... he warned the crowd that they'd be finding lobsters in the trees over the next few days. His mind works in mysterious ways. But he sure can sing. "
