    Wow! Amazing! Talent!

    It's disgusting to think that Ashlee Simpson makes a lot more money than him, isn't it?

    There are lots of amazing musicians who never make any money. That the nature of the music industry.

    The dude is awesome.

    There's a link on the front of his website to a Kennedy Center concert. I highly recommend it.

    That was a nice performance. It reminded me of him being the John Mayer of the inner city.

    Midon has Mayer beat on the guitar, but Mayer knocks Midon out with his lyrics.

    Anyways, I'll be looking for Midon's cd very soon.

    Thanks for posting this, along with any musical info.

    I picked up his CD and it is pretty good (hard as hell to find, though). It's a little more R&B than I was expecting as I thought every song would be him showcasing his blazing chops but it is good stuff nonetheless.

    Sweet. He's playing at the Montreal Jazz Festival on Saturday night and it's free. Sweet, I didn't even know the Jazz Festival started already.
