Denny Laine in New Jersey - a photo slideshow

     Denny Laine (Bob Gannon)

This comes from Bob Gannon, who's on a break between McCartney shows in Europe (thanks, Bob!). More photos can be found in the slideshow at the bottom of the page:

Hi Guys,

 

    I got to check out Denny Laine at the Monmouth Academy of Music. He played with New Jersey's own The Cryers. The Cryers started out with a 10 song set of songs from their last album and upcoming album. Songs were all pretty good and had a nice sound to them. Cryers will be backing Denny on a short tour. Denny came on stage and started out with a rocking "Time to Hide"

 

Set list:

01. Time to Hide

02. Say you don't mind

03. No Words

04. Deliver your children

05. Mull of Kintyre

06. Again and again and again

07. Ghost of the scrimshaw carver

08. The shades of Artic Blue

09. Food for all

10. Go Now

11. A blues song I did not recognize

12. Wish you good love

 

13 . Live and Let Die

14. Band on the Run (dedicated to Paul & Linda)

 

Although at times Denny's voice was a little strained, he more than made up for it in enthusiasm! He tells the stories behind the songs as well. Denny is a total sweetheart as he meets and greets all of the fans. He signs and takes picture as well. It was a very nice night for an area not known for it's entertainment and it was a fun set to listen to. He will be back with The Cryers in February in Freehold,NJ. December 11th they will be playing the Knickerbocker Cafe in Westerly Rhode Island.
