Festival First Nights at the Domain. What a great idea: Picnic. Drinks.Al Green. The Man. The Myth. The Legend. For his first ever trip to Australia.
And, in case you are wondering. He still has "It" whatever that is.
He may be 60 but he still jams like Smuckers(tm).
The Festival First Night is the kickoff to the Festival season in Sydney (January). Al Green headlined the First Night at the Domain, which sits just outside the Botanical Gardens. Oh, and did I mention, this was a FREE show. With blanket packed, Vodka, Wine, Beer, Cheese and Lindt truffles, we danced, sang and shimmied to Al.
How could you not love a guy who hires only his daughters as backup singers. Because, why else, he wants to keep the money in the family! The night was hot (and I mean hot like 85 for 10pm) and so was Al. Besides him whining a bit about not having enough time to play - he put on an amazing show to a sea of tipsy dancing Sydneysiders.
So Al, Lets stay together...
(tm) note: I cannot believe how many amazing sayings I am coming up with for this blog. I mean I thought "Schnitzeled" was good. But "Jams like Smuckers" - where do I get this stuff?!
p.s. you wont actually be able to see anything with this video I was too far back for the camera to capture it, but the audio is pretty good. You Go Al.
..."jams like Smuckers"...I'll try to use that at least 3 times this week. Let's see what kind of reaction will I get from it :) :) :)
