We Three Kings

[David C.]

Well so much for lurking. This thread means it's time to pop in and tell this community that Scott is telling it like it was. I was there. Klein Auditorium, Bridgeport Connecticut. I was BLOWN AWAY by WTK. It was amazing. And while I'm at it, as a "used t be" naysayer of Mike's shows, I have made a complete about face and really warmed up to them. Last night's gig as well as the July 3rd in Danbury proved to me that the band is doing a lot of work to create just the right sound. And yes the audience LOVED it! You couldn't keep me in my seat. And while I'm at it I'll just say that Warmth, DWB, THWFOS and Betsy were totally awesome!

A hearty thank you Scott and all the guys for all the effort. It is definitely paying off!

Serious?! Now that's pretty cool... never thought that uploading that video on YouTube 2 years ago would result into this.

Thanks for sharing with us.

Hey thank you!  I sent Bruce the link and he was knocked out by it.  I taught Mike his part (or reminded him I should say) on the bus ride to the gig, he really is a quick learner.  He seems to really like the arrangement.  So did the audience.

Makes me wish I was a Smiling Californian instead of Dutchman te see and hear this .... if you ever consider a X-mas tour in Europe....

I've always loved Three Kings, it's easily my favorite tune on the Christmas album ...

How's this for useless trivia?  "We Three Kings" was written in Williamsport, PA, the same location of a university called Lycoming College where Bob Moog received a doctorate degree -- & I think Mr. Moog was somehow involved with building the fake Theremin used on "Good Vibrations"!  See, it's all connected!   

According to Wikipedia, the guy who wrote We Three Kings, John Henry Hopkins Jr., was a clergyman in the town where I go to college (Plattsburgh, NY).
