Will Lee, probably best known to most people as the house bass player for the David Letterman show, flew into town immediately after finishing taping the Friday show. He did a lot of playing and singing as well as answering a few questions from the crowd. He's one funny guy, I'll say that much. After the Q&A session, he invited Chuck Rainey up to play with him. They did a rendition of Steely Dan's Peg, complete with Lee mimicking the trumpet line with his mouth.
Will then invited Victor on stage, and they played together for about twenty minutes. The most amazing thing about their duet was how they completely controlled the entire crowd, even though they never played above 10 dB or so. Now, that's showmanship.
