American Idol brings his infectious style to the Genesee Theatre

Taylor performs at 7:30 pm, July 12, at the Genessee Theater in Waukegan, IL (between Chicago and Milwaukee)


Quote:
WAUKEGAN -- Taylor Hicks says he has enduring memories of being just another club musician hoping he wouldn't have to sing in the corner of an empty bar.

"Oh yeah, I definitely played to nobody," he said, recalling a life not too long ago when he sang in "little coffee houses and clubs, little-bitty theaters, anywhere I could."

You beat me to it Grin

think those days are behind him forever  - - suspect we have only begun to see what Taylor is capable of as he continues to grow as a musician - - always smile when in an interview he refers to the years before the show as time spent learning his craft and then almost always follows with a version of "I still am "

to me that is the sign of a true artist - the humility to realize you never "know it all" and the desire to never stop growing - - someone who will one day make it onto the "legends list"

OK - - enough with the pontification over coffee  Tongue

on to a fun bit in this article - -

"You never knew with him ... After I won, I had a chance to sit down and talk with him at length, and he's a pretty nice guy -- wink, wink,"

hmmm - have we heard about this chat before ? ?
and that's three interviews in a row with a "wink, wink"   - - seems Taylor has found a cute way to express his feelings regarding Mr. Cowell  Roll Eyes
