I took my wife to see Tom Cochrane as she's a big fan. I like Tom Cochrane but I'm not a big fan. Having said that Tom gave a great performance on Saturday night, playing all his hit's and fan favorites. His 3 piece band was tight and rocked the house. A special shout-out to original Red Rider Bassist Jeff Jones who was joined by guitarist Bill Bell and drummer Davide Direnzo. It's nice when all three band members supply backing vocals - it fills out the sound. Tom is now 70 so he doesn't hit all the high notes anymore but he more than made up for it with spirited renditions of Mad Mad World, Boy Inside the Man, No Regrets, White Hot, The Race, Lunatic Fringe, Sinking Like a Sunset, The Untouchable One, Good Times, Victory Day, Big League and of course Life is a Highway. He also played a short acoustic set which included a version of Leonard Cohen's Bird on a Wire. He played a 75 minute set plus two 15 minute encores. Tom seemed to like the smaller venue and almost hometown crowd and provided a lot of banter between songs. The venue was great. The sound was great. I'd go again and I'm glad I saw this Canadian icon while he still can rock.
