SOo...

I saw 10CC last night on the last date of their "Ultimate Ultimate Greatest Hits" tour. I don't know exactly what I expected, but...these guys were way more AMAZING than they had a right to be. Graham Gouldman, the last of the original members, is 79, but front and center throughout and much, MUCH more than an oldies presence. The drummer and lead guitarist have been with him (on and off) for about 50 years. But titles like "drummer" seem weak, since they all played multiple instruments throughout the night. Heck, they sang an a cappela version of "Donna" as part of the encore that was absolutely stunning. The level of musicianship was off the charts.

They were technically excellent (duh!), energetic(!) and FUNNY in ways that many more "popular" acts will never accomplish, or even aspire to.

I hope they tour forever, knowing they can't...

Too many guitars (is that a thing?)
