    This was at Chastain Amphitheater in Atlanta, summer of 2018. Was there and this was literally their second song. They opened up with Ship Ahoy, followed by Living For The Weekend. Walter Williams and Eddie Levert have been childhood friends since about 8 years old if I recall correctly from what I read. The show went on unlike entertainers of this day who will simply leave in the middle of a concert for any given reason.
    And they sang all of the rest of the songs without missing a beat.
    Eddie Levert was transported to a local hospital and it was found that he was dehydrated. This was my 3rd time seeing them in concert and I saw them again last summer. They always, and I mean always put on a great show !!! ❤❤❤❤

    • @fostermac7170

      That "keyboard player" is non other than Dennis "Doc" Williams, who is the Ojays vocal/musical arranger and musical director for the Ojays since *1972*. The way they sing their songs live, and the musical accompaniment is all HIM. He does this for a few other artists, as well as T.V jingles, musical scores and the like. His work on the Ojays "Live in London" album is unparalleled in the music business.
      You did notice the band or the artists didn't miss a beat didn't you? Outside of perhaps New Edition, I don't know of any act in the last couple of decades that can parallel them.

    It's easy to get overheated onstage with the lights and dancing and singing at the same time. The suits were nice but probably all of them were sweating. It got to him. It was so loving how they looked after him and fanning him and putting the cold towel on his head.

    It was a blessing to see how Walt and Eric never left Eddie's side. Now that's called love and caring. With the help of the crew the show went on as if Eddie was singing with them. But then the O'Jays are seasoned and professional entertainers and they know what it takes to perform and deliver under extreme conditions and circumstances. Love the O'Jays 💖

    When I was a young kid my mother took me to so they Ojay's at Radio City music Hall in New York.I got to see the original group,they gave an electrifying proformence. I remember dancing
    in the crowd in my polyester suit as a little kid. soul music was all we had back then, it wasn't any Hip Hop then. all we had to listen to coming up was mom's and pop's music or young groups like the Jackson Five which was a beautiful thing; long live the Ojay's.

    Man what Brotherhood. That's makes me love them much more. So grounded in heavenly harmony.. True entertainers. I've seen them live in 1972, 2009, and again 2009 . Great great performance. Eddie talks to the audience and brings you in closer, like you're part of his family. And that bad is kicking. Great musicians, great choreography, just a great show.

      If you knew the song and what parts were sung by Eddie and Walter, then you would know that if Walter sung Eddie's parts, then he *had* to know that there was a problem with Eddie. Some of the examples is Walter sings Eddie's part @ :56 thru 1:13 and 1:33 thru 1:39. Eric Grant sings Eddie's parts from 1:40-2:06. Of course, there are points throughout the song where Walter and Eric sings Eddie's parts, but the reality is that they are such professionals, you didnt miss Eddie. BTW, if they need to stop the show, the musical director (Dennis "Doc" Williams, who plays keyboards/piano) is the one that will stop the show.
