Right where he should have been all along, working the suburban Southern rock bar circuit. No matter how high he placed, Bo Bice was never a great American Idol contestant—he never really craved the approbation. A few drunks shouting "Freebird"? More like it. Guaranteed that this show will be light on Bice "originals," and heavy on the tribute. — JON CARAMANICA

I really would like to read your review after you hear Bo perform live. He has released a new CD "See The Light" (available at WalMart). All of the songs performed on this CD are orginals which he wrote or co-wrote. It is a great southern rock CD.

I hope you plan to go to the show and will revise your critique afterwards because I think you will find that most of Bo's set list will be originals off his new CD.

I went to see Bo last night at BB KINGS and he sang almost all originals from his new album "See The Light", and a few from "The Real Thing" album, and just a couple of covers that were big hits with his fans...."Vehicle" and "Can't You See"" The crowd LOVED it and he looked and sounded fantastic!

Actually, Jon, Bo sang all original songs save for 2 covers that he has recorded previously. He recorded "Can't You See" recently at the invitation of Steve Gorman. Oh, and he sang it alongside George McCorkle on what was to be his last album before his death last summer. So if you'd like to write that off as a "tribute" performance, be my guest.
