The Wiggles • Continental Arena, Meadowlands, NJ 7/29/07


A good friend of mine once said "The Wiggles ceased to exist once Greg Page left the group. Now it's more of a Jefferson Starship without Kaukonen and Casady, or a Van Halen without David Lee Roth. Sam Moran is nothing more than Sammy Hagar in a yellow t-shirt. " While it's true some consider Sam Moran a "Poor Man's Greg" (even harping on his "weight problem" which scared some kids on the latest tour), lets not forget the 150 times he valiantly stood in as Greg's understudy, before taking over the ownership of the coveted yellow skivvies...

That "Wiggles ceased to exist" comment is unusually articulate and insightful to be uttered by one of your friends, Kenny. Just which one was it?
