However, it\u2019s hard to be any sort of sad when you\u2019re talking about Daryl Hall &amp; John Oates. Merely the visual of the duo brings to mind perfectly positioned blonde locks of Daryl\u2019s hair and John\u2019s enigmatic, happy open-mouthed face while bouncing around in back playing guitar. At least that\u2019s what pops in my head. Am I alone here?<\/p>\n<div>\u00a0 \u00a0 I grew up on Hall &amp; Oates. In fact, at the ripe age of 12, my very first concert was at a North Carolina amusement park palladium, and it was none other than these two. What is NOT to love? Who doesn\u2019t love Hall &amp; Oates?<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Terrible people.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0 \u00a0 I mean- there\u2019s an actual Hall &amp; Oates emergency hotline. If you NEED to get your fix, you can dial the number and pick a song to hear. This is a real, legitimate thing. (Really, Google it.) At any given time in life, if you\u2019re feeling a bit somber, they are there for you. Also, they taught me the correct pronunciation of the word \u201cJAG-U-AR\u201d. Who doesn\u2019t need to know that?<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0 \u00a0 A pop duo of exponential class; other pop duos could only aspire and fail to be anything as amazing as this pair. Everyone remembers the hits <em>\u201cSara Smile\u201d, \u201cPrivate Eyes\u201d, \u201cManeater\u201d, \u201cAdult Education\u201d,\u00a0<\/em>and the list goes on and on. However,\u00a0did you know, that Daryl Hall is a bit of a bad ass? Besides being the first white man ever inducted into the R&amp;B Hall of Fame, Daryl Hall has a monthly web series\u00a0called, \u201cLive From Daryl\u2019s House&#8221;, this series is\u2026 well let\u2019s just say\u2026 hilarious. Dedicated to all things music, it\u2019s a one stop shop for Daryl to get together with his rock and roll buddies. His buddies are people like:\u00a0Smokey Robinson, Rob Thomas, and Patrick Stump just to name a few.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0 \u00a0 Daryl has not lost an inch of his edge and talent. It\u2019s as if God himself said \u201cLET THERE BE ONE MOST PERFECTLY TONED KICK-ASS POP VOICE ON THE PLANET\u201d. He created Daryl Hall, although a\u00a0bit unfair for the rest of those aspiring singers, but whatever. God gave us Daryl Hall, and for that we are eternally grateful.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0 \u00a0 We aren\u2019t done there. John Oates is more than just a pretty face with a set of guitar strings as well. For you kids out there, this man is no stranger to asserting himself. John has a number of projects including: The R&amp;B Foundation, the 7908 Aspen Songwriter\u2019s Festival, and providing influence to fan favorites Gym Class Heroes and The Killers.<\/div>\n<div>This year we are fortunate enough to see them ON THE ROAD!! Live and in your face, Hall &amp; Oates are touring again. Be aware, this show is a get-out-of-your-seat-and-don\u2019t-pretend-you-don\u2019t-know-every-single-word-to-every-song phantasm of an event. I\u2019m not ashamed to say that I\u2019ve seen these men perform seven\u00a0times in my life!\u00a0I hope I\u00a0haven&#8217;t\u00a0seen the last of them.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Daryl and John, we\u2019re watching you.<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fans of my columns should know by now that, as the song says, I\u2019m only happy when it rains.
