It was a beautiful night for a concert at Pier 6. An earlier storm knocked the humidity down and it was a beautiful night for music - Daryl Hall & John Oates were in town. Out promoting their recently released box set the tour was named Do What You Want, Be What You Are tour.
Here's a duo who ruled the pop charts in the mid-80s with hit songs such as ""Rich Girl", "Kiss on My List", "Private Eyes", "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)", "Maneater", and "Out of Touch" - all of which hit #1 on Billboard's Top 100. Here we are many years later and they are still giving it their all to a packed house.
Young and old combined to fill the pavilion and could be heard singing along from the first song of the set to the last. It was great to see young kids with their parents enjoying great pop songs. These are songs that have lasted through the test of time. They don't need flashy videos or anything else to popularize them either. A great pop song is just that, a great song. This is what pop music is all about.
