Funky and tight, Marcus' band tore through 2 sets that had everyone in the audience smilin', clappin', and rockin' in their seats. As a musician, writer, arranger, and producer, Marcus has made us smile from Michael Jackson to Herbie Hancock to Wayne Shorter to McCoy Tyner to Aretha Franklin to Elton John to Luther Vandross to LL Cool J to Me'shell Ndegé Ocello and indelibly gracing Miles Davis last several recordings. This night was no different. Bravo, Marcus, I wish you a speedy recovery from the November 25, 2012 bus accident in Switzerland and hope to see you back in the states soon.
Regarding the venue - I prefer assigned seating, but it was great to see the band in a small theater.
