B.J. Thomas charmed and captivated us from the moment he stepped onto stage! His inimitable voice, stage presence and natural entertainment approach were all we expected and more. The venue lent itself to a feeling of intimacy and friendliness, but it seems like it's just his style and would have been the case wherever he performed. The audience responded to his humorous anecdotes, which were informative and engaging. He can certainly reach the high notes, but his notes in the lower register were like being enveloped in an audible embrace! "Mama" never fails to reach and touch people and from the reactions by the audience, it still holds its magic. It was great to hear our favorites and it's easy to see why his songs crossed over the lines of Pop, Country and Easy Listening genres - songs that are memorable and unique! What an unforgettable performance by a warm, charismatic, talented man! What a showcase for great songwriters like Burt Bacharach!
