KC and the Sunshine Band

I’ve never been much of a follower of KC and the Sunshine Band, but after seeing them perform live 30 years after their prime, I can certainly see why they were so popular back in the disco days. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the show turned out to be quite entertaining and hearing the old songs also brought back feelings of nostalgia. I am amazed that even at age 57, KC – whose full name as I just learned is actually Harry Wayne Casey – was able to keep such a high level of positive energy during his entire performance. Given that he is now the only original member of the group, the band still put on a great show. Of course, what would KC and the Sunshine Band be without the backup dancers who were probably the core entertainment for a lot of the guys in the room…
