Christopher O'Riley

[Alan Barnard]

I also love that show except for three things:

1. Hearing the fabulously talented youngsters he has playing the piano and classical guitar (my instruments) makes me want to hang myself. The only thing that prevents me is lack of a convenient hook.

2. I envy, nay covet, nay nay would kill for, that special talent Mr. O'Riley (and other great accompanists I have known or known of) have to play amazing music, remarkably well, with only sight reading or minimal rehearsal.

3. As for the show, itself: More music, I say; interviews are good, but fewer silly skits would make me happy.

List,

Sounds like a fun one coming up for me.   Christopher O'Riley...his show "From the Top" is a lot of fun.   Anyone worked for him and have any insight?
