They both point out that you have to be ready to improvise every second you're out there with Mr. Berry. It's at the heart of what he does. Looking back at a bunch of shows, I saw him first with a scared band, and he just took over; then with a bunch of really good bands, and he had fun. (At two of those shows he played for hours). And then with a casino band at Tahoe that didn't quiite work. The arrangements were set. It was like a television show where the band rams through a written arrangement and leaves CB 12 bars or so to solo. And then a couple of times with a local band that, while competent, seemed stiff. Those two shows got stiff, too. And then, finally with the St. Louis band. And as you say-- they are ready for whatever comes. And they like him-- or more.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16028212499171228040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676806289104794676.post-54663443955031784012010-04-13T10:34:52.478-07:002010-04-13T10:34:52.478-07:00Peter,

The St. Louis band does a great job going in any direction Chuck wants to take a song. Wing It!!! I love it.....<br />Doug<br />CB Forum member - BusseybootleggerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
