Blown away!
by Sporty Spice on 2019-07-11L'Olympia - MontrealLoved every minute of the Little Steven show. From the moment he stepped on stage, it was non-stop energy what with the his women back up singers, his horn section and his very tight band. I missed an opportunity to see him many years ago with the original lineup of the Disciples of Soul so I did not want to miss his appearance this time. I was not disappointed. Garland Jeffreys, however, was a major disappointment. Not sure what was going on there, whether the years have taken a toll or whether there were extenuating circumstances. Considering his legacy of music including 'Spanish Train', 'Matador' and 'Wild in the Streets' he could have killed it with his set. I had to convince my friend to join me for the concert as he was not aware of the Little Steven dynamic but was all in when he realized that Garland Jeffreys would open up the show, so that was a major bummer. He was, however, blown away by Little Steven, as was I.
