Thanks to Michelle (@ATLRio on twitter) for the photo of Michael and Brian Wiltsey.
Michael treated his friends and the packed Tin Roof Cantina on August 20, to an amazing evening of music! He sang so many fabulous classics and took many requests during the evening. Brian Wiltsey, MJ’s very accomplished guitarist from his Tin Roof Days accompanied him and they did some singing together as well..it was fabulous! He also had a few other friends come up to sing a song or two! What a night to remember and listening to MJ’s killer voice for at least 4 hours was just outstanding and a dream come true!! WTG MJ and thanks for such a wonderful time!
Michael singing Bohemian Rhapsody..thanks Michelle!
Rodney Ho from Access Atlanta wrote a great article about MJ’s Tin Roof gig.. he includes a video too Read it HERE.
MJ met up with tennis greats, the Bryan Brothers to do a gig at the Ansley Golf and Tennis Club on the 23rd.
Here is a tweet from Bob Bryan @Bryanbros
BTW- @michael_johns killed it on Monday night…..but I’m sure that’s no surprise to you guys!
Here is a short clip of them definitely rockin’ out!
Michael killed it at Molly Malones this past Saturday night!! His setlist was just to die for..According to the LiterateGal’s tweets Michael sang “Statues”, Roy Orbison’s “Crying”, “Redemption”, Adele’s “Someone Like You” and “Taillights” (the one that is named as “Redemption” on The Rising Myspace).
We were so lucky with tweets, twitvids, pictures and videos from fans that attended and I know I can speak for all of us who weren’t there….a HUGE thank-you to everyone who shared!
MJ’s song choice was spot on and I think that “Crying” and “Someone Like You” showed off his voice to perfection!!
Thanks so much to Nicole (@iluv2seeu) for her fab little twitvid of “Taillights” (partial)!
Many thanks to @livehead16 we have Michael’s absolutely amazing and goosebump making rendition of Roy Orbison’s “Crying”
Many, many thanks to Youtube Ninasfeet for the breathtaking Adele cover “Someone Like You”
Then there were the gorgeous photos from @livehead16 …
