Well, I didn't remember the SNL skit, but everyone else did and said it was the funniest thing they ever saw. The concert was really great- I had not been at all excited about it, my idea of a good concert being Kiri te Kanawa or Pavarotti, but this was very good. I'm sure any teenager seeing us would have been embarrassed and horrified by the spectacle of thousands of creaky 40s and 50s boomers dancing and cheering and waving lighters as if they were still alive. Joe Cocker looks a lot like Redd Foxx now, but fatter and whiter. He screams a lot; I can't believe he has any cords left after doing that for so many years. He did You Are So Beautiful (a song I despise, She Came in THrough the Bathroom Window and Unchain My Heart. The Guess Who, a band I had no memory of, was fantastic. I realized I had heard many of their songs after they played them. They're a Canadian group-- all of them looked 40s and 50s, too. There was no gyrating or silliness, other than by us, just really excellent musicianship. Well, Joe Cocker did jump, with enormous effort, two inches into the air at the end of every song. Other than that he looked pretty much like his feet were superglued to the floor. The Guess Who were wonderful showmen, and the lead singer endeared himself to the audience by saying how much they loved America and supported her and they had American flags on the slides for their last number. Don't tell anyone, but Dan did the moonwalk.
