Roast Beef ’N’ Small Fries Gatlin ‘polished’ despite problems by Patrice Koranek Battalion Staff Despite recurring problems with the sound system, Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers Band showed Thursday night’s audience in G. Rollie White Col iseum that little problems can’t stop a veteran act. Playing to a house that was about two-thirds full, the Gatlin brothers showed that they had a polished act. Throughout the performance, Larry, the leader of the group, interjected com ments about the whooping and hissing of the Aggie crowd. Sev eral times during the evening he stepped back and clowned with the audience, giving the crowd a feeling for the people behind the music. The group started the even ing on a mellow note with “She Used to Sing on Sunday,” and worked their way into fast-paced hits like “Nighttime Magic” and “All the Gold in California.” But no matter what kind of song the group was.doing, the harmony and balance between the brothers’ voices were great. In slow, haunting melodies like “I’ve Done Enough Dying To day” and “Midnight Choir,” Larry’s voice seemed to make the crowd sit up and listen to the poignant words. And in the fas ter songs, the backup from the band and harmony from his brothers kept the songs moving. About midway through the performance, the band and brothers Steve and Rudy left the stage. Larry pulled up a stool and after bantering w ith the au dience and telling Aggie jokes, he did a solo — a nonsense song called “I’m Just a Mannequin.” Trying to end the perform ance with “All the Gold in Cali fornia,” the band left die crowd excited instead of ready to leave. Realizing the audience’s mood, the group came back and sang N. ’ U A - /"k >» 1 .L ... ‘We’re Number One” and then left the audience in silence as they sang the gospel song “Alle luia.” The Gatlin Brothers’ stage was simple compared to that of the opening act, the Bellamy Brothers, who also were enter taining. Hits like “You Ain’t Just Whistlin’ Dixie,” “Sugar Dad dy,” “Let Your Love Flow” and “Reggae Cowboy,” set the mood for the rest of the evening. DIETING?
