"Asleep in the Deep" was played on what they announce is the largest saxophone in the world. This is about the fifth act with that claim. "Love Me and the World is Mine," on the bamboo chimes is enough to make anyone yawn. Even a medley of more or less patriotic airs failed to arouse the house after that.
The brothers did not do very well Wednesday evening. They can hardly expect to do much better without improving their selections. Both men are good musicians but they are simply holding themselves back. The one who announces should not be allowed to talk at all.
