Say what you will about John Oates, but it's a pretty classy move to go to all that trouble when you know you're not the first choice.

The Mustache! It's GONE!!!

I admit to always wanting to ride it...

Agreed. And he did a good job, despite the lack of mustache.

I think that's a pretty nice rendition. Helps that he's a hometown boy.

Totally agree. I'll take his rendition over the previous night's LaBelle train wreck any day.

There wasn't room in the stadium for Daryl Hall's ego.

/Oates rules.

OMG! I had a dream as a child that I would, at one time in my life, read this very text. All of my life I have lived in fear of seeing this comment... every forum visited would fill me with panic and tremors and dammit, here it is finally. The most horrible sentiment I have ever thought possible. And you know what? It is worse than I thought, who the hell thinks something like this about someone like that!!? At least I never have to worry again about stumbling upon a thread where someone talks about wanting to ride that strange soul hobbits mustache again.

Big improvement over that POS Patti LaBelle spewed out Sunday nite.

Considering he doesn't seem to have much of an ego, he's alright with me. He's quoted as saying "I'm probably the world's highest paid back up singer."

She's not coming back for Oates

We knew Daryl Hall was supposed to perform last night at the game, but were very suprised when they announced John instead. I think it was really classy for him to invite the fans to sing along too.

So Daryl Hall was all laid up and Out Of Touch?

He was stuck at night school trying to get Adult Education?

He went to the beach and had an encounter with a Maneater?

He's being hunted down by Private Eyes?

I guess the carbon and monoxide got to Daryl.

Was Andrew Ridgely not available?

1. If you have a band with two singers that could sing the National Anthem at the World Series, consider yourself extremely lucky.

2. If your wife kicks you out of bed, you jump on a plane to Philly, in a middle seat at the last minute, to sing at the World Series, and you pull it off, consider yourself the ultimate professional.
