Is this the band for the eBay Live Gala?

by Sue Bailey

A sharp-eyed poster on the eBay Live Discussion Forum spotted this concert schedule, which is the night and place of the eBay Live Gala.

In a hasty attempt to look like I know what I’m talking about, I’ve discovered that Musiq Soulchild was nominated for three Grammies last year. He is labelled “a soul artist whose unique style blends R&B, Soul, Funk, Rock, Blues, Jazz, and Hip Hop, creating a sound unlike any other”. Something for everyone then?

If it’s correct, this is a big departure from previous years which have booked bands that middle-aged ladies like myself have heard of: Kool and the Gang, Huey Lewis and the News, the B52s, and so on. Perhaps Mr Soulchild is opening for another Eighties band?
