Bill went someplace very unexpected with this show - and he nailed it! His particular talent for storytelling songs dovetailed with the spoken narrrative. Not once did my mind wander. I heard singalongs, too - and at one point the audience broke out into spontaneous (and appropriate) clapping on 2 & 4....
