Caught Melvin van Peebles at the Metropolitan Room in Manhattan last night with his band “Laxative”. It was really great to see an old friend doing what he does very well…entertaining…and loving every drop of it!! Melvin was truly great …and having a lot of fun at the same time! And so was the band. Obviously highly tuned to Melvin’s iconic style they seemed also to be intimately familiar with Melvin’s musical tastes. Familiar melodies and hilarious moments from some of Melvin’s Broadway Shows delighted the audience and proved as timeless as the old guy himself.
Thanks for a wonderful evening.
