I saw him live in Honolulu in November 2004. I was there with my husband and my parents celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary. Don put on a great show in a small venue, probably only 100 or so patrons. He sat up front in a big rattan chair with a keyboard in front of him that had two old school telephones on it. One was red. Between songs he kept chatting on these phones and I swear the red one was the direct line to the bar to bring him another drink. He was hilarious but totally sauced through the entire show.

After the show he went into the hallways to greet everyone as we left. My Mom got a couple of free cassettes from him and I believe he autographed them for he rand her sister.
