The Guestbook Archives
This archive begins on July 1, 1997 and goes up to Sept. 27,
1997, 3 days before the release of Marigold Sky.
Check out the "Let it Out" discussion board on the RSI web page, it has
a brief post by the man himself, Daryl Hall. Is it really him, I don't
know, but the post got plenty of responses and if it was him, it was nice
of him to post. Also, look for they guys on the Rosie Odonnel show on Oct.
2; the today show, twice rescheduled, now on Oct. 3rd; Regis & Kathy Lee
on Oct. 6th and look for DAryl on the Charlie Rose show oct. 9. Note,
dates subjuect to change, so keep checking to make sure dates are the
same. Either Marc or the RSi web page will have the latest info. Finally,
i don't know if Marc added the 2 other songs on Marigold Sky: they are
"hold onto yourself" & "I Don't think so". So Marigold sky has 12 tracks.
One more thing, Check out the reviews of MS in next week's issue of
Billboard Magazine & Entertainment Weekly. EW was negative but Billboard's
was positive.

Just 3 days until Marigold tuesday: 9/30 when Marigold Sky comes out.
If ordered it thru J&R music, you should be getting it now, as some people
have. Alas, for most of us, we've got to wait until tuesday. 7 years is
just too long.

I have been "Out of Touch"!!! My husband just showed me the Adult
Contemporary chart and H&O were on the list! I just about fell out of my
chair! I've been surfing trying to get new info (concert dates, album
releases, etc.)....Can someone point me in the right direction about tour
dates?!?!? It's been over 4 years since my last H&O concert and I need a
fix BAD!!! I was a die-hard during their reign in the 80's, but
post-college reality took over and my Possession Obsession had to take a
back seat. I hope someone Along the Red Ledge can help out of my Abandon
Luncheonette. Thanks!!! :-)

From the very first time I heard one of their songs, I have loved H&O!
They have great music and I could never get tired of it, ever! I could
listen to it for hours and hours and never get sick of hearing the same
songs over again. Love you guys! Keep making great music! S.H.

Has it really been that long since "She's Gone" started the meteoric
rise of Hall & Oates? I was a senior in high school when I first heard
that wonderful song. Anyway, I just want to tell you, you have a
wonderful web page. My all time favorite song is "Some Things Are Better
Left Unsaid." Thank you for your time.

I remember seeing Daryl and John for the first time in 1981 in
Cincinnati, Ohio when I was 5 years old. Their music has been a constant
in my life. Thier music has helped save me on many occasions. I'd just
like to get to thank them for doing what they do

WOW! This is sooooo great! I recently saw Hall & Oates at Ravinia (in
Chicago). They ROCKED! I must confess I'm obsessed with listening to
their CDs -- in the moonlite, under starlite, in the morning (my stereo is
my alarm), while I'm driving, ... Daryl's voice is sooooo smooth &
soulful. I'm anxiously awaiting Marigold Sky!

More than 10 years ago, there was a book written about Daryl & John
called "Dangerous Dances". Would anyone know if that book was ever really
printed...and if so, would they know where I could purchase a copy. I
tried Barnes & Noble...and no luck :( HELP!!! Thank you =]
[Ed. note: Yes, it was printed in 1986 I believe, but is long since
out of print. Your best bet is to scour used bookshops, or check the
Rocktoys! web site (under the "Possession
Obsession" page.)]

When i was 14, I went out with a guy that looked exactly like
Daryl...and needless to say, we went out for over 7 yrs! But, I wanted to
say that I did go to the H&O concert at Jones Beach on Aug 10th...and may
I say it was awesome.. Daryl looked excellent! His voice was in top
shape...they opened up with "Method of Modern Love" And they had 3
encores!!! The weather was beautiful and so were they. But I did get a
handout that allows you to pre-order the "Marigold Sky" CD and of course
the following day I did so...so if anyone is interested...e-mail me.

I'm a long time Hall & Oates fan checkin' in to leave my comments! To
all who would like to know,I've learned that the CD "X-Static" will be
coming out on CD in the next month or so. If you want the Long version of
"Wait for me", have patience,you should be able to purchase it soon. I
work as a music retailer after many years of being a radio announcer,so I
usually have a better idea of what is and isn't available. I've been a
long time fan of Hall & Oates, certainly since Casey kasem counted down
"Sara Smile" into the Top 10. Am interested in hearing from any other
fans to compare notes! Am waiting for the new music to be released! Their
best LP: H20 Daryl's best: "Can't stop dreaming". What are your Top 5
singles & LP's???

Saw the H&O show here in Poughkeepsie, NY tonight. WOW! Just awesome!
You tend to forget just how talented they really are. It was great to see
and hear such a tremendous performance in a small venue like the
Mid-Hudson Civic Center. I will be humming the tunes for days! Great
site - glad I found it tonight.

Seen Hall and Oats At The Canadian National Exhibition Aug. 20. It was
pouring rain that night and there was no cover, but I waited for four
hours under a umberella and plastic poncho for the show. Hall and Oats
were under the bandshell but still got some of the drizzle. I was taking
some pictures of John Oats about three hours before the show when one of
Hall & Oats management told me and another lady that we couldn't take
pictures. He said that we had professional cameras. Meanwhile it was
only a 35mm camera with a lense of 28-70 lense. Boy was I upset. We got
first row seats then the security from the Ex said anybody could stand up
at the stage. Of course after that I was leaning against the stage center
front about 8 ft from Hall & Oats. I took about 5 or more pictures FORGET
WHAT THE MANAGEMENT SAID and then my camera malfunctioned due to the rain.
It was unbelievable to be so close to my favourite duo. I doubt if it
will ever happen again. The show was shorter than the others, they didn't
sing Me and Mrs Jones which is what I really wanted to hear. Yes Kelly
they played the song you inquired about but I don't have my email infront
of me to mention what it was. Phyllis

I just want to say that I have been a fan of Hall and Oates since I
was about 13 or 14, and I am still blown away by their music. I
especially love their live stuff. I recently saw them at the PNC Center
here in New Jersey and I just fell in love with them all over again.

Saw Daryl Hall and John Oates last night at Wolf Trap in Vienna,
VA...the show was incredible though a bit short. I loved the new band
members. Does anyone know where I can get a tee-shirt or tour book; they
didn't sell any merchandise? I have been a huge fan for as long as I can
remember. This was the third time I have seen them live. I hope they
will continue to tour after the summer. Also, does anyone know if you can
purchase a copy of Mrs. Jones? This web site is great! Thanks.

CONCERT REPORT! My girlfriend and I saw H & O last saturday August 16,
1997. The show was at the Ravinia Festival in Chicago. It holds about 3400
people in the pavilion and there were about 1000 or so sitting in the
storm filled lawn. Everybody had to fight a severe storm to get to the
venue. It is a very nice place with a lot to do and eat before the show.
I'm sure without the rain we could have enjoyed all of it. This was a very
exciting show. The crowd was really into it and everybody had a lot of
fun. Daryl, John and the boys took the stage at about 8:10 p.m. After
opening the show with "method of Modern Love", Daryl promised "we're gonna
make it worth your while" Obviosly refering to the storm. then continued
to say "we're gonna play a lot of songs for you (16 in all, set list to
follow). The guys were in top form and had a great time as well. The whole
band sounded great. The new guitarist, Paul Pesca, even played the solo to
"Kiss on My List" with his TEETH!!! When the band broke into "she's Gone",
The girls started dancing up to the stage hoping Daryl Or John would give
them a look. Later in the show when the crowd recognized the intro to
"Maneater" a lot more of us joined the girls already standing right in
front of the stage. after ripping through a couple new songs that would
make anyone who heard them buy their upcoming new album "Marigold Sky"
(Sept. 30) and closed the set with an accoustic "so Close" we would not
let them leave until they did, count 'em, THREE ENCORES!!! During the
second encore Daryl said "you're really makin' us feel good tonight thank
you". All in all it was a great night and I look forward to seeing them
again soon. SET LIST: Method of Modern Love, Out of Touch, Marigold
Sky-new, Say It Isn't So, She's Gone, How Does It Feel To Be Back, Sara
Smile, I Can't Go For That (No Can Do), Maneater, So close. ENCORE 1:
Romeo Is Bleeding-new. ENCORE 2: Rich Girl, Can't Help Falling In
Love (first few lines) "That was for Elvis", Kiss On My List. ENCORE 3:
Me and Mrs. Jones

I have been developing the web world's first exclusive Daryl Hall
sites. Stop by and sign the guestbook, send me your comments and what
you'd like to see. I'd like to keep it as interactive as possible. I've
seen Daryl with John MANY times and am looking forward to the August 24th
show in Poughkeepsie. I went to college there-so I'm looking forward to
it! There's never a dull moment on the trails of Daryl Hall. It seems he's
always got his hands into something! By the way-Marc this is a great
sight! It's truly inspiring and I always look forward to your updates. You

kicked ass!! What was really neat was pulling up to the front gate 2 hrs
before the show and accidently catching some of their sound check. That
was cool. my fiance and i fell in love to "sara smile", in fact, it's our
"song". daryl and john, you can play at our wedding if you want
to...lol!

Hey everyone! Am rediscovering my H&O 'roots' after catching them at
Jones Beach. Have to admit, I've seen them do better, but maybe that's
'cos I wasn't on the floor (but still had good seats). My fave concert
experiences were the Liberty Concert, July 4, 1985 (I'm featured a few
times with my sign during 'Method of Modern Love'), then 9 days later at
Live Aid (they were fabulous with the beloved- late-Eddie Kenricks & David
Ruffin), and even 1988 for 'Ooh Yeah' at Radio City, when Daryl 'sang' the
first line of the second verse of 'Sara Smile' to me (I was right up there
singing the song, and he caught my eye! It was to die for!). Well, now
at 31, I don't go to concerts as much as I did at 19 and 20 (money's
tighter now, too, and the ticket prices have SKYROCKETED!), so seeing them
again was a real treat. Anyway, any H&O fans want to e-mail me, please
feel free to reply. I can also be found on AOL as bchbumm24, for any
fellow AOL'rs out there. Just wanted to say I love the band, this website
is GREAT, and long live Hall and Oates!! (By the way, if the dynamic duo
ever read this, I love you guys tremendously, and hope to meet you one
day!!)

Having just returned from vacation in Seattle, I am still floating from
my experience at the H&O concert at the St. Michelle Winery. It was my
second live concert and they just get better and better. I don't care how
many times I hear the same songs over, they are great! But the clincher
had to be Daryl's soulful voice on "Me & Mrs. Jones." Anyone know where I
can get a copy of that? Also, I would like to get my hands on an
Unplugged CD.

Saw Daryl and John live five times so far. Once in east Texas, twice
in Tulsa, OK, twice in the Dallas area. Got backstage once in Tulsa when
I was 18 on their Big Bam Boom tour. Had the priviledge of meeting John's
uncle who was visiting from New York. Sweetheart of a man. Got to talk
face to face with my heart throb John for what seemed like eternity -
frozen in time! Incredibly nice. Then in Dallas on their Ooh yeah tour I
handed John a note explaining that I'd met him and his uncle in Tulsa four
years prior and he remembered. Next thing I know I'm being handed a
backstage pass. Met them again but this time there were way too many
people back there to get to really speak to them. The most recent concert
I attended was at Six Flags on July 5th. Absolutely could not believe I
didn't get backstage again! Am still upset! Anyhow, they're still
awesome after all these years! Saw them for the first time on late night
tv when I was 13. They were singing Kiss on My List - and I fell in love
with John. Thought he was the absolute sexiest man I'd ever seen. Still
do! Uh, by the way, WHAT HAPPENED TO JOHN'S MOUSTACHE? Never liked one
on any man ever except him!! Hopefully the guys will tour again to promote
Marigold Skies. I will hopefully get backstage then. (I can dream!) I'm
so excited to find that there are other serious Hall and Oates fans out
there. I figured I was the only one since I'd never met another. I'm new
to the internet and forgot my stupid password so I'm online using my
husband's name. My internet name is MrgldSkies. It was the only thing I
could come up with that wasn't already in use! Thank you John and Daryl
for your wonderful music. Keep making albums!

I have followed Hall & Oates since 1974. Saw them for the first time
in Memphis, Tn at Cook Convention Center when Sara SMile first hit it big
on the radio. I have seen them all 7 times they have been in Memphis.
Daryl and John, please tour in Memphis again and promote your new C.D. so
I don't have to go to Atlanta to see you!!

will be released to AC stations on M:8/11! Some stations are playing it
now!! The song won't be available for sale but they do plan to release a
single for top 40 & sale called "Want to", I think. My source as always is
Lori and Diane at RSI, where would we be without them. Check out the RSI
web page,for the latest and see they new pictures for Marigold Sky!!
You'll be seeing them everywhere you look come september.

I have a ton of questions to anyone who can help answer. Will there be
a video for the upcoming single--"Promise Ain't Enough"? Will we be able
to buy the single in stores? And how did the concerts go in Atlantic

After many years, finally saw H&O in concert at Ste Michelle Winery.
Great venue, so-so show, contrary to another guest's views. Have to agree
completely with Scott Pottersmith of Boulder. The concert was short,
their best works were pretty much ommited, and Daryl just spent too much
time overacting on stage instead of just getting down to business. John
just looked left out of the scene. As with most groups, their earlier
works are more creative, and soooo good. The later music becomes less
original and more predictable. This is not to mean that they were not
enjoyable, they certainly were; however, almost everybody was there to
hear their great hits, not so many new songs or undistinguished songs from
their lost years. Just about the time the concert was starting to roll,
oops, thats all folks, see you next summer. Sure, there were several
encores, but quite frankly, I thought that I had paid for more than 80
minutes of half unfamiliar and unsophisticated songs. It also took quite
a while for the techs to get the sound levels figured out, as the
instruments were far too loud for H&O's voices. And finally, what's with
all of these showoff dancers, blocking the view of the stage. They were
so full of themselves they kept looking around to see who was watching
them. I came to see the act on stage and listen to the music, not to be
annoyed by adolescent showoffs. Granted, H&O don't care about that.

Summer in Aspen has been beautiful. How's the family holding up to life
on the road? Sorry I missed the Denver show, that would have been fun.

I just got back from seeing Hall n Oates in concert at the St.
Michelle Winery here in Washington State. The concert was awesome. I
have never seen these guys live, but they blew me away. Daryls voice is
still there and even sounded better that the album cuts alot of the time.
I am the one who posted the question regarding whether these guys sign
autographs. Well now I'll answer it. They do if you figure out where
their staying and wait around for two hours. To make a long story short,
my brother and I got away with Hall n Oates autographs on my H2O cd cover,
4 guitar picks, and the set list they were using on stage. I still can't
believe I met these two living legends. They have been such an
inspiration to me. If anyone has any questions give me an e-mail! :)

Just saw the July 18th concert at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles.
Great Show! Hadn't seen them live since 1983 at the Universal
Amphitheater. Amazingly, Daryl & John looked and sounded almost identical
after all those years. Both T-Bone Walker & "Mr. Casual" provided tight
support, but G.E. Smith's flashy licks and showmanship were sorely
missed. The crowd loved every minute and even got three encores! Can't
wait to see them at the L.A. County Fair in September!

Hi all,
I've been asked for a description of the photos from the Denver show, so
I put together an in depth account and figured I post it as well. If
anyone else is interested, email me.
here is a list of the shots 2. closeup of Daryl side shot left hand on
mike stand. blue stage light gives it a intimate effect. 6. pulled back
shot of Daryl on left and John on right, both w/ acoustic guitars. Half
shot of the new lead guitarist just behind John. John has his eyes closed
and Daryl was moving and is a stop out of focus. A big control amp w/
green and red lights side stage makes this a great concert shot. 7. this
is a similar shot to 6. but is focused on daryl, his mouth is on the mike
and his face shows vocal rage. 10. Tight closeup of Daryl w/ acoustic
guitar, he is in mid vocal,eyes open. Blue stage light on cymbals of drum
set add nice contrast. Daryl has a brown, suede, short sleeve shirt on.
looks very electric in the pictures. 11. Pull back of Daryl mid song,
John is on the mike, they both have acoustic guitars, the drummer is
framed between the two. 12. Full stage w/ Daryl the main focus. John is
way on the right particularly cut off. lead guitar, drummer and key boards
visible. Audience silhouettes visible at bottom of picture. 13. similar
to 11. both mid vocal and eyes shut. sax and drums and keyboard visible.
crowd silhouette visible at bottom. 15. My one and only closeup on John.
He is head is slightly down, eyes closed, wedding ring visible on fret
hand. strum hand hidden behind mike stand warm reddish glow. Great shot,
in my opinion. 16. Closeup on Daryl, fret hand on neck of acoustic strum
hand bent and up by shoulder, eyes closed. Very passionate feel. 21.
similar to 16. fist clenched, eyes open. 23. My favorite shot of Daryl.
right hand clenched on mike stand, other hand on mike, hair flying. His
body and the mike stand in perfect focus, head, hair, and face a little
out of focus. Great effect. He was jamming!
SECOND PICKS
3. Daryl looking right into the lens, sax player very visible. Very cool
lighting affect to this shot. 4. closeup of Daryl and John. John on
electric guitar. Daryl W/ hands on mike and mike stand. A bit out of focus
but still a good shot. 5. Heavy red glow with sax player in background.
This shot is out of focus, but I kind of like it. It's a close up on
Daryl. He looks a little like David Bowie in this one. 9. Daryl on
acoustic guitar, looking down w/ side shot of base player. John is cut out
mostly. 14. similar to 10. Daryl's face a tinge out of focus. 17. A
strange picture w/ Daryl on acoustic guitar, right hand up in the air with
middle finger pointing sideways.(I don't recall why) It's a pull back shot
with a couple of Audience heads in strong view but not blocking D or J.
18. A very cool picture of Daryl w/acoustic guitar, head tilted, mid
vocal. John with acoustic guitar pointed up in the air. a little out of
focus and audience head visible but not blocking D or J. It's a pull back
shot. 22. Close up of Daryl w/ hands on either side of his head, mid
vocal. A tinge out of focus. Very serious look on his face. 24. Closeup
of sax player. a little out of focus. Audience head blocking bottom part
of sax. 25. A very cool half shot with Daryl in perfect focus, mid
vocal,very animated, John on electric in background. Sax player visible.

Who said white boys ain't have no soul? Somebody lied!!! Daryl Hall &
John Oates are the best white band to walk the planet and since I'm
African-American I can go so far as to say they're better than some of the
R&B groups to come out lately. After 7''s remake of "Sara Smile" proves
that H&O have had the stuff great bands are made of all the time. I
started listening to them back around 1981-82 when I was in 3rd or 4th
grade and haven't stopped yet. And will not, unless my CD'S melt. Guys
keep doing y our best. bECAUSE THE BEST IS YET TO COME. Awesome

I, like many others, became a fan in 1980 with the Voices album. I was
15 years old. Daryl and John's music has kept me going over the years.
Their voices and music has become a friend to me. I have seen them in
concert many times over the years and never miss them when they come to
Atlanta. I have never met them, but sure would love too! If anyone has
tips for this, please let me know!! Kristi M.

To the "Keepers" of this page, I thank you for cleaning up the
multiple post. OK, I waited a couple of days before I posted my review of
the show. 7/8/97 The Grizzly Rose in Denver CO. As stated in my last post,
I’m not very familiar with H&O post Abandoned Luncheonette except for some
of the main stream hits. I’m writing this as A/L spins on the cd player.
That was when John Oates meant something to H&O. John has an amazing
voice, and was a critical ingredient in the H&O recipe. Although John’s
guitar playing during the show was enjoyable, he never seemed like he was
close to being anything more than one of the supporting musicians. The new
material sounded interesting, but less than what I regard as true H&O. The
chemistry was not there. As for Daryl, he was trying to stay involved in
the show. His voice showed noticeable wear and tear from the tour. It
wasn’t until the final song of the third encore that I glimpsed the former
Daryl. He just blew away the crowd with a explosive version of Mrs. Jones!
For me it was worth the price of admission. I was disappointed that they
chose to completely ignore the first three albums. It was such a small
venue; that material would have shined. I guess I understand why they stay
away from that music; it is the most demanding material they have ever
done. With that version of Mrs. Jones, I just know they could pull it off.
If for no reason but to say we remember the past and honor it. I’m looking
foreword to the new album, hoping that a well rested voice, and a little
more vocal participation from John will make it a worthwhile buy.

This site I have just discovered is so pleasing to my eyes, to view all
the e-mails from other fans who know there is something unique about Hall
& Oates that make them the greatest musical act EVER! Nobody can claim to
match the strength of Daryl's voice, his vocal range seems greater now
than ever after buying "Can't Stop Dreaming" from Diane at RSI (THANKS
AGAIN). Let's not forget John Oates; his presence in the duo is just as
important. John's vocals are very impressive as well,whether providing
background vocals, harmonizing with Daryl, or singing lead vocals; just
listen to "Possession Obsession" or "Starting All Over Again". Without
John lending his vocal and songwriting ability, they would not have the
same incredible sound. I have been a fan myself since I bought their 45rpm
of "Kiss On My List" in 1980 at 8 years old! Since then I have purchased
EVERY single, 12" (and most promo 12"s), and album they ever released in
the US and have every CD of Hall&Oates and Daryl Hall solo EXCEPT
"Livetime" and "X-Static" on CD. By the way, if you have these on CD, I
have extra CDs of Daryl's "3 Hearts" and a few duplicate 12"s if you wish
to trade; will also sell to fans who may want these (only because I have
extras!!). I have been to only 3 of their concerts but I am going to 2
MORE in AUGUST. One concert in Savannah on August 27 and back to my real
hometown of Virginia Beach on August 30!!! I'll be taking lots of photos
and hopefully videotaping the Va. Beach concert, if allowable since it's
outdoors. Anyway, Daryl and John, if you ever see this, I will always
regard your music as the smoothest, most soulful, and most memorable music
I have ever heard, OOH YEAH! Any fans of Hall&Oates who want to talk about
their music and concert experiences or want to talk about our personal
collections just e-mail me at hughesbret [at] hotmail.com!

GREAT PAGE! I was searching for reviews on the tour and found this
page. I can’t say how good it is to find people that can put War Babies
and Hall and Oates in the same sentence. [by the way, if anyone can tell
me where I can get a copy of War Babies on CD I would be extremely
grateful. I’ve been looking for 10 years with no luck] Anyway, I was
turned on to H&O when my brother special ordered the Whole Oats LP from a
small record shop in Oyster Bay NY in 1973. I was in 9th grade and
instantly hooked. My brother played "I’m sorry" and pointed out the
amazing vocal technique that Daryl was using, and from that point I don’t
think that disk left the turntable for days. We just waited for tour
information and in 1976 it came. H&O would play the Calderone Concert Hall
5/1/76 Everyone was phyched (I never tried to spell that word) We had been
turning every person we knew on to H&O for 3 years. It was a major event
and one of the top 5 concerts of my life! The Calderone was an old movie
house and the acoustics were amazing. Daryl knew it and proceeded to
demonstrate it by doing a good portion of one song (and for the life of me
I can’t remember which one it was, it might have been "You’re Much Too
Soon") without the aid of the microphone. It was spectacular to hear the
power and range of his voice. I’ve never seen anything quite like it
since. If anyone was at that show and can remember the song, please let me
know. The show was a collection of songs from Whole Oates, Abandoned
Luncheonette, and War Babies LP’s. (In my opinion, the best work they ever
did) It was very soon after that show that Daryl came out and said he had
to change his vocal technique to save his voice from being destroyed. That
is the way I remember the story. However it came out, the result was a
major change in the music. I lost touch with their new music and continued
to enjoy the old music, and to turn people on to the first 3 LP’s. There
wasn’t much in the way of new things that appealed to me until I listened
to Robert Fripp’s Exposure CD. It wasn’t new, but it was new to me.
Classic Daryl singing lead on "Burn Me Up I’m A Cigarette" and one or two
others. Boy have I been in the dark! I just went to look for the Exposure
CD to get the name of the other songs, and I read from the liner notes
"This album was conceived as the third part of MOR trilogy with Daryl
Hall’s solo album 'Sacred Songs' and 'Peter Gabriel II' both of which I
(Fripp) produced and to which I contributed." I had always thought it was
pre H&O stuff. WOW!! I really owe a debt of gratitude to this page for
this. Can you believe I’ve never even tried to get "Sacred Songs" I’ve
seen this Title mentioned on this page included with the disks that are
not available in the US. if there is any other news about this please let
me know. OK thanks for listening, that was 25 years of H&O that I needed
to get out. I can’t believe I’m going to see them tonight at some little
country western bar. I almost blew it off. Thanks to this page, that’s not
going to happen.

RE: my review of The Concert at The Amusement Park In Arlington.
Actually, I have no idea what "dash rip roarin', rootin' tootin' Texas
fracass" means... Really, those of us in the big cities (D/FW) don't talk
like that. It's amazing what your mind will come up with at 3:00am CDT in
the morning after you go to a fantastic concert, spend the rest of the
night record shopping all over the metroplex, and top it off with
breakfast at Denny's. By the way, if you ever happen to read the Dallas
Morning News, don't get too worked up when you read a review of your
favorite concert written by Mario Tarradell. This guy's purpose in life
is obviously to dig and scrape for SOMETHING to bitch about. He gave The
Concert an overall good review, but said Daryl was "trying too hard to be
soulful" on "Everytime You Go Away". Last year he did a review of
Lucero's (my favorite singer from Mexico) concert at the Coca-Cola
Starplex Amphitheater, saying that she should "just chuck all that pop
nonsense" (i.e. four fifths of her career's work) and stick with her
ranchera (mariachi) songs, forgetting that many of us gringos like her for
her pop work. Thankyou!

July 5, 1997, Daryl Hall and John Oates come in and KICK MAJOR ASS at
the Music Mill Theater in Six Flags Over Texas (aka The Amusement Park In
Arlington). Overall, it was a different kind of show, with lots of
acoustic guitars. Daryl easily spent twice as much time on the guitar
than he did on the keyboard, taking a seat (see what turning fifty does to
you?) for "I Can't Go For That", "Rich Girl", and "Kiss On My List". The
two new songs are excellent. "Margold Sky" is a vaguely Mellencamp-ish
acoustic rock ballad, while "Romeo Is Bleeding" is more the all out
rocker. HIGH POINTS: 1. "Everytime You Go Away" started with just Daryl
on acoustic guitar, Bobby Mayo on organ, and Mike Braun on drums, then
continues with the full band through verse two. There is a nice a capella
chorus, a blistering sax solo by Charles DeChant, and a funky-sounding
blues bridge near the end. 2. The "dash rip roarin', rootin' tootin'
Texas fracass" reaction from the crowd entices the band into THREE
encores. LOW POINTS: 1. John's only lead was in the co-vocals for "She's
Gone". 2. I showed up at the concert with US$100.00 in my pocket, but
there was no merchandise (t-shirts, programs, posters, etc) to spend it
on. THE BAND: Charles "Mr. Casual" DeChant - sax, keyboards, percussion;
Tom "T-Bone" Wolk - bass, mandolin, guitar; Bobby Mayo - keyboards; Mike
Braun - drums; Paul Pesco - lead guitar. SONG LIST: "M-e-t-h-o-d O-f
Modern L-o-v-e", "Out Of Touch", "Say It Isn't So", "Marigold Sky", "She's
Gone", "One On One", "Everytime You Go Away", "Sara Smile", "I Can't Go
For That (No Can Do)", "Maneater", "So Close - Unplugged". FIRST ENCORE:
"Romeo Is Bleeding", "Adult Education". SECOND ENCORE: "Rich Girl", "Kiss
On My List". THIRD ENCORE: "Me And Mrs. Jones". TIME: Approximately two
hours.

I just got back from seeing "the boys" at Station Casino in Kansas
City. It was so wonderful ("Me and Mrs. Jones" - wow!!) and I felt
restless afterwards, so I just wandered about the casino complex. Then
BOOM, I practically run into Daryl Hall on h is way to one of the
restaurants there. Okay, do I follow or not??? I had to. I get to the
place and start chatting with a woman named Stephanie. We finally convince
each other to go in and say "hi". He was very nice, shook our hands, and
gave us both autographs, And ladies, he looked great, even better than on
stage. But, I babbled inanely. So, Daryl, if you ever see this, I was the
girl all in black and what I meant to say was that I could not allow
myself to pass up the opportunity to meet you , be cause I have loved your
music for so long. I had a crush on you at 16 and I think I could all
over again. I can hardly wait for the new album. Please come back to
Kansas City soon.

Just in case Daryl and John see this, I think it would be nice if they
would record the old Motown tune, "Baby, I'm for Real". I belive they
would sound great! I can hear Daryl's voice ringing already!

Hey, just came back from seeing the boys do Pine Knob up in Detroit
area. Semi-covered amplitheatre and some people got wet, but we've been
waiting for these guys too long to be detered. So how did it sound in the
middle, cuz I was the stages far right half way up and that turbo sound
system was messy. Had to put my fingers in my eras to wash out the high
end noise and get some mids. But other then that; you got to admire the
talent on stage. Pure and refreshing are only two of the words that jump
to mind. Sure, there were typical screw ups, a bass level or a voice crack
or a timing or cord flub, but never twice, and it had to be looked for.
They gave us what we wanted and more to the tune of fresh new material
too. I love the "B" heart-feltly used and the drummer was majestic. Good
to hear "T-bone" , and when they did the three acoustics, it was a kodak
moment of sound. Let's not forget the new guy; delicious. The dynamic
duo, were just that. Each flavored the performace with his own special
herbs of polish, presence, and talent. This made the night a feast for my
ears and it's recommended dining for the musically starved. Lauren
Evans.
