IMHO...

RE" "Rock Star" comment-- I see how you could get that impression, but MS has the chops his attitude suggests and he is the front man for the band he has crafted. I do not see how they could squeeze so much music into the 1/2 hour without his big-balls presentation style.

When you see the old YouTube videos you also see that back then he was clearly less confident and that he was trying to form, then, the band he has now. The old instrumenation and sound-mix is much the same as now, but the skill and punch are not quite there, in the old videos.

This is a new show that he is just now learning how to "lead." TV hosting is very different from big-arena stage MC presence just as stage acting (large proscenium) is different from movie acting (large screen) which is is different from TV acting (small screen). So I hope you will continue to look in.

Cannot get that music mix anywhere else I am aware of, all in a neat 1/2 hour package.
