Thanks for posting this Dan.
It just shows that even the big guys have moments like this.
Vince handled it exceptionally well.
Pappa John had me shedding tears at the end.
Best regards
Billy

The surgery quip must have been true. Notice vince was doing "Look at Us" in C rather than the recorded key of Eb.

I was at a Time Jumpers performance at the Station Inn little over a month ago and they had sound system issues at that performance. Feed back all night. Made for long gig for the musicians. Vince was there at that one and was trying to sing. He wasn't real happy about it at the time.

As stated above, shows it can happen to anyone.
76 Emmons Push Pull, Williams 600, ShoBud Pro I, MSA Classic, Remington SteelMaster dbl 8, MSA Super Slide dbl 8, Gold Tone 6, And other instruments and equipment I can't afford.
