Got to see Cotton play last Friday night. As most of you know, he plays sitting down now. He was playing a vocal mic (SM58?) through the PA in a medium sized concert venue. Nice crowd. He was hampered in the first half of the show when his mic didn't work and he had to play thru a mic one of his band members handed him. He was better when he got his own mic working, but he's definitely showing his age. Man, though, what a hot band he's got. And people loved the show.
First harp show I've been to in quite a while and it was good to watch him. Seems to me that he plays a lot of things that include more than one note at a time and sometimes I was bothered by those choices. But who am I to criticize?
