Both shows Harry had incredible energy but I felt the audience in St. Louis was more in tune with Harry and his new funky side. He performed "America", "Eyes of the Seeker", "Fire", "Whisper Your Name", "Mind on the Matter", as well as the ballad of "Danny Boy", and other New Orleans tunes. He mentioned that at the moment his favorite song was "Drift Away" where he had the crowd singing and swaying along. He did encores to Sly and the Family Stone's "Thank You". In St. Louis Harry and Jonathan had a contest: Harry sang the note... Jonathan did it on his guitar... Then Tony and Harry had a match off to see who was the better guitar player. We all know who won...

During one song in St. Louis the croud was clapping and started stomping their feet to lead the group into their funky next song. It was very cool to see everyone enjoying him so much. I thought that maybe the older crowd that came would not like the guitar playing and rock songs Harry performed but Harry gave a nice balance of the two. As I have seen him do on several occasions he jumped upon his Steinway and started "tap dancing" with boots on. Towards the end of the show Harry did some cartwheels and rolled around stage. Then he did a kung-fu, karate impersonation on the mike like you see in a dubbed movie. It was hilarious.

After both shows you could find Harry and the guys out by their busses signing autograhs for everyone and Lucien with a camcorder asking everyone what they thought of the show. They are all amazing.

I admire Harry and his band and have a great deal of admiration for their ability to put forth so much energy every night on stage. They are awesome! I can't wait for the chance to see him again.
