Patti Russo charged £18 I remember with part of the Spike Edney's SAS band.
Fair enough that was 8 years ago but even that was a huge struggle for her except for the London show.
And I would say that was far less of a tribute act!
Sorry to keep rambling on about it, I don't mind what Paul Crook is doing at all with the band and good to see him trying over here in the UK, but the studio stuff I just find wrong, wrong, wrong! To do the entire of Bat in that manner is just ugh...
Hopefully ticket sales will pick up closer to the dates.
Not sure if cost of living is having an effect on shows next year but it wouldn't surprise me.
Having said that Steve Steinman seems to be doing exceptionally well at the moment!
I think many have heard his name drop more in the UK than the likes of Paul Crook or Caleb Johnson.
