Hello, two absolutely wonderful shows by Bill in Paris and Brussels,
different settings, different audiences, different set lists but equally
powerful and brilliant performances.

He has performed a bunch of new songs,sometimes even for the very first
time, which proves how good he was feeling. These new songs are great, like
Kansas City. Can't wait to hear them on CD!

I knew Bill was a talented songwriter, I now know he's a wonderful person.
Hangin' out with him was a treat from A to Z. Never a dull moment!

I can't access my web site these day, and pictures will be posted later
