Florida Theatre
Jacksonville, Florida
My seat wasn't that

As you can see, I recently saw them again, except for Mike, of course. Third show in the tour...They were better than I ever could have expected. And someone just recently pointed out that they didn't get much rehearsal time. Coulda fooled me. They were GREAT!!! They got a little older. Not as old as I got, but they got older. And better.

I know Davy has a few wrinkles (who doesn't?) but as soon as I heard him sing, and talk to the audience, it was like I was back at that first concert. He sounded exactly the same. Since his voice has gotten deeper, that's a pretty good trick...And he's STILL adorable.
They charmed me all over again.
