I am very pleased with my situation now as I sit upstairs from the “video-bar” owned by generous Natalino – my brother.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Centobuchi, the city of Natalino\u2019s video-bar, is east of Rome and the coolest show of the tour. Better still the next day will be our day off here. We arrived around 8:30 to a full house, kind of an odd piece of theatre to set up the show in front of the crowd. A scrunched tiny space that doesn\u2019t accommodate my video screen but we make makeshift solutions.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Coolest part is the French guy asking if I parlez-vous and realizing I can communicate more things in French than in Italian and successfully inform him about the lights, about being vegetarian and about the draft from the door. He’s on the case.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The audience freaks out, the Italian subtitles are working, they laugh they cry. I do 2 encores – we\u2019re definitely not in Hamilton. When it is over and I\u2019m packing up some people buy cds each asks same question – \u201cweach juan ease bitter?\u201d Natalino waits patiently to ask. \u201cCan I ug you Bob?\u201d Sure you can hug me Natalino\u2026brudder.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
