Yet another Barney Bentall show

Just realized i forgot to blog about the concert we went to on March 11th. My mom was kind enough to get us tickets for Christmas to see Barney Bentall and Kevin Fox. The cool thing is the concert was the day after our anniversary so we had a nice dinner out at wimpys with Diana. We dropped Diana off at the babysitters and then traveled to Brock University for the show.

We'd seen Barney many times before. It was our 6th time seeing him together. It was my 17th time seeing him since 1990. Yeah i'm a big fan what can i say. Kevin Fox we had seen as part of a band called Shaye.He's a really good guitar and cello player. Yes he plays cello in a rock band.

The show started around 7;30 and we were really surprised that Barney played first. He was featured on all the advertisement for the posters so we figured he was the headliner. He played about 12 songs including a really cool piano and harmonica version of one of his hits- Come Back to me. He was solo and acoustic like the last few shows we had seen. Kevin Fox came out and jammed for a few songs. Following a short break Kevin came back out and played about 12 songs--Barney came out for the last 2. He was really awesome as a solo peformer and we were impressed. We kinda wish they would put out a cd together. During the encore they played a kick ass version on the Beatles Norweigan Wood. It was a really cool show. Afterwards they did a q and a in the hallway that was pretty interesting. Thank you mom for the tickets we had an amazing time and it was an anniversary to remember.
