I saw him a few years ago when he was just getting started. He opened for Dave Koz but his horn mic kept cutting out during the first song! Bummer. I saw him last on A&E special with Sting. The two work magnificently together! The other night, I heard Sting singing on one of his songs. He is going to be around a long time!
