Having seen John Doe in many configurations over many years, he never disappoints. Always has great musicians with him, songwriting & vocals always suck me in. Also, his off-the-wall chatting to the audience makes him seem so normal & accessible, which he is, since after his shows, he goes out to the lobby & takes time to meet & greet. Last nights show I especially appreciated this because I convinved my friend from Allentown to come see him with me. She was so thrilled, she went right up to him & said "This is the first rock & roll concert I've ever been to!" He cracked up. So did I. Memories are made of this.
