The biggest selling instrumental musician of the modern era dropped into the Peoria Civic Center Theater last night.Kenny G, the Grammy-winning jazz saxophonist, performed a mix of his hits and Christmas favorites during the nearly 2-hour show. Near the end of the concert, he made sure to invite fans to meet him in the lobby to buy a CD and get an autograph. In fact, he said not once, but three times, that he'd much prefer hanging out with fans rather than returning to his hotel room at the Holiday Inn City Center. Apparently, Mr. Gorelick was not too fond of his accommodations.
He quickly worked his way through signing for about 300 fans in less than 15 minutes. The man was a machine! He then took a few minutes to pose for photos with those who waited until the signing ended.
Oh, by the way, if you had some extra jingle in your pocket last night, a Kenny G saxophone could have been yours for a mere $1,200.
