Friday’s cool, Cee Lo says, but there’s just somethin’ about Saturday night – especially late Saturday night, apparently.
The Grammy-winner closed the second night of the Riverbend Festival by taking the stage about 45 minutes later than the 9:30 p.m. scheduled start time.
As a jam-packed and antsy crowd griped on the lawn in front of the Coca-Cola Stage, Cee Lo finally did emerge, opening with his song “Bright Lights, Bigger City.”
“I come from down the road in Atlanta, Georgia, so I’m kind of like your cousin,” Cee Lo, wearing a black tank top, black shorts and two arms full of tattoos, told the crowd after the first song. “This is like a family reunion. I love reunions. I love cold beer and good food. So now that we’ve become acquainted, let’s dance.”
