The excitement in the air was palpable as drummer Will Calhoun, lead vocalist Corey Glover, guitarist Vernon Reid and bassist Doug Wimbish of LIVING COLOUR took no prisoners at the Highline Ballroom in New York on October 30, playing to a sold-out standing room only crowd of more than 700.
With the release of their 2009 critically acclaimed CD-Chair in the Doorway (Mega Force Records), they have been on their first North American tour in four years, and are back with a vengeance.
They did not disappoint their hometown audience, playing selections from The Chair In The Doorway including the title track and Behind the Sun, as well their classics Cult Of Personality, Love Rears Its Ugly Head and Elvis Is Dead, featuring Jeff Smith on saxophone.
LIVING COLOURs set at the Highline Ballroom was an electrifying evening of rock n roll. Drummer Will Calhoun was on fire, and when Doug Wimbish jumped off the stage and into the audience, not missing a note on his bass as he got up close and personal with a few lucky fans, I was stoked to be a foot away, documenting it and experiencing it live.
After the performance, the band members were inundated with fans who lined up to meet their favorites, pose for photos and get autographs.
LIVING COLOUR is currently touring South America and Europe.
