I make it no secret that I am a HUGE Joan Osborne fan. I first saw her at the Hard Rock in the French Quarter in New Orleans. I wish could remember what year that was but I just can’t put my finger on the date. It has been a few years. She blew me away. I stood in the front row of that place watching her tear up some vocals on her original material.
I remember being on my feet for several hours waiting for the show and the crowd in that place. It was sold out and very hot.
At the Christmas Jam Joan was not rocking as hard as she used to. A bit more laid back but the vocals were still great. She was all over the stage singing with everyone and she did a set each night by herself…very cool.
