The best concert ever!

Picture the scene:

The band have just finished a fairly slow song. The lead man puts down his ukulele and the lights go out. In the near darkness we can see him pick up his violin. He starts playing a steady note. Slowly it builds, an extra bit here, a flourish there. In a short while it has a beat to it and the lights start flashing in time.

By now the audience can see what is coming. A ripple of excitement passes through them as a the riff they all know begins. It's one man on the stage but it counds like four, the violin, the bass, the precussion, the singing, it's all him and now the lights are on him. The crowd go wild.

Last week I went to see Seth Lakeman play live and it was amazing, and what I just described was but one song of many.

Awesome!
