"Feels like Stevie Ray"
verse 6)
Lovin it in the Quarter, man it's really loud,
See the ladies on Decatur Street, look at all the crowd,
Goin to Pat O'Brien's for one, maybe two or three,
They call us Double Trouble, and that's just fine with me,
(chorus faster)
So we're layin down the beat, We just arrived today,
down here on Bourbon Street, feels like Stevie Ray,
In this Crescent city, we been longin for this day,
in the Big Easy,
We're playin the blues all night, layin down the beat,
We just arrived today, down here on Royal Street,
feels like Stevie Ray, out in this swelterin' heat,
In the Big Easy,
(SRV rippin guitar solo)

"Yea, hanging at Henrietta' cold barq's rootbeer, is in my hand."
"Watching all the "hot cars and sexy ladies" and list'nin to the band."
"Cruisin" a few verses.....
I am an experienced singer that moved here from Atlanta and sing Michael Buble' tunes, and I am looking for some musicians to play these beautiful "standards" that play very well to the younger Buble' fans as well as the older crowds with many "additional gratuities" from country clubs, parties, weddings, anniversaries, Gulf Coast clubs and casino's. Songs like, "You don't know me" made most famous by Mr. Ray Charles, and re-recorded on 42+ other famous singers albums, "Song for you," written by Leon Russell, also made most famous by Mr. Ray Charles, and re-recorded on 72+ other famous singers albums, "That's Life," re-done on 24+ other famous singers albums, "Summerwind" at least 10+ other famous artist's albums, "I've got you under my skin" re-done on 37 other famous artist's albums, "Feeling Good" re-done on 43 other famous artist's albums, "Come fly with me, "Home," by Michael Buble' and many more, again, these timeless Vocal Jazz, Standards, Lounge and Big Band tunes bring back wonderful memories and why these songs play so well to the masses and book gigs. If interested or have any questions please email me at aneveningwithmichael or gomikelong or call 228-447-1579 Thanks, Mike
