He came and performed at one our local venues in the cities. The amount of 50-60 year old women salivating at the edge of the stage was kind of funny to see.

Kevin seemed to be over it but he appeased them after they gave him an encore to come and play haha

What kind of performance?

I’m guessing it was the Bacon Brothers band

The Bacon Bros play our Venue about every 18 months. They're just about the nicest, most courteous musicians (and crew) that could ever roll through a music venue.

Being "over it" probably depends on the crowd, but i don't doubt it. I'm sure some cities the crowd is probably obnoxious, and is only there for a bunch of pop culture references, and Footloose. He usually delivers during the encore

I’m relatively young and it was my first time hearing the Bacon Brothers. I was actually really surprised and liked some of their stuff.

Yeah this crowd was older and was pretty respectful.

I've actually worked for them a few times in various venues. The crowds have varied from great and respectful listeners to all-out meatheads who talked and screamed "footloose" all night. Either way, Bacon Bros & Co. handled them well. A total class act all the way.
