  • Toots Hibbert may be a living legend, but Anders Osborne may well have been the main draw on Saturday night. He was the one we went to see, and an audience member shared that same thought during the set. When Osborne was talking about what an honor it was to be sharing the stage with one of his idols, someone yelled out, “Where here for you Anders!,” and although it may not have been appropriate to shout that out...we agreed.

Both singer's had thick accents when they spoke, and their vernacular added to the authenticity of the night.
