Couldn't stop listening to him. But it ended when he toured to the small town I am from and I drove up to take my Dad to see him and his repartee was verbatim from the show I saw him in 2 years before except that he went on a riff where he got angry at us, the audience, for being smaller than he'd hoped and probably not going to by any CDs and on and on about how he was really to important to be singing to us. Very offputting. Now I just can't even listen to him, not even Summerlea, without recalling his scorn.Betsy B.
