    My wedding was 9 days before this show. It was on Long Beach Island, NJ. Jonny Rosch's band played. I asked him to bring a saxophone player. He brought the sax player from Southside Johnny's band. For almost 2 hours nearly every person at the wedding was dancing. Amazing experience.

      @@jonbon8598 Hi @jonbon8598. I've only just noticed your comment and if you think Southside is better that's fine. Just listening to music is the real winner. From the personal side; my first Four Tops record was 'Baby I need your loving' and they have been part of my life ever since. I think only Jackie Wilson gets anywhere close to Levi Stubbs.
      As for Southside etc I have their first LP and first three UK singles. Their first 45 'I don't want to go home' is, in my opinion, brilliant and I play it a lot. I'm not someone who automatically thinks the first is best. For example Springstein's version of 'Any other way' is just as good as the original.
      Take care. I wish you well.
