@R-L I will always remember a very young (must have been 18 or 19) and unknown Bic Runga opening for the Finn Brothers in Christchurch back in the mid ninties. It was just her and her acoustic guitar playing songs that would be on her first album. The innocence of Sway and Drive were gorgeous. She also described how Bursting Through was written while she was in her bedroom feeling bad after being told off by her parents. You could get a real sense of the audience being blown away by her. It was like we were all transfixed by this beautiful young lady with a beautiful voice singing songs she had written from the heart. It really was something special.
The poor guy who played after her wandered on to stage, shook his head and said "How the hell can I possibly follow that?"

I love both those bands. Hughie Lewis is awesome.

@mariner4life He also included a Megadeth and Judas Priest guitar solo in that video/mashup.
I saw Huey Lewis a few years ago in Taupo. He looks old but still put on a good show.

don't remember ever seeing her perform. lovely voice though
Saw her opening the Finn Brothers either at New Theatre Oxford or the Royal Albert Hall a few years back. She was really good.

"Mistaken Identity" is one kick-ass album.
The opening track "Draw of the Cards" is production perfection on anything more decent than a laptop or phone. -
