I was taken along to see Gus Meeuwis perform live by a friend of mine, and I was a little apprehensive that I wouldn’t understand a lot of the show and might get bored because of the language barrier. If anyone else is worried about that when going to see him live, don’t be. His expressions, intonation, and body language are universal and he’s so dedicated to every phrase of his music and discloses the narrative precisely.
Although he’s been performing since the early 90s, there’s no sign of him slowing down or his performance weakening, and he put on a fantastic show with incredibly strong vocals. He was great at interacting with his band, and when he was going to improvise a section that they hadn’t rehearsed, Gus gave a nod to his bassist who was leading the band, and he then lead the rest of the band around the new sections of music.
He was wonderful at engaging with everyone in the audience and getting everyone to sing and clap along, and although I didn’t know the music, he taught us all a section of a chorus to sing along to, and it was awesome to be involved in that way.
