The show finished at 2.15pm and it was an FANTASTIC show which both Ezra and Louis were FANTASTIC playing great as well as entertaining everybody doing great songs including an version of Great Balls Of Fire, I Ain't Got You and Rocket 88. Ezra Lee who along with Lance Lipinsky and Jade Hurley is one of the best rock and roll piano and singers I have seen live. Ezra will be at Greazefest at Redlands Showgrounds next month and to those who want to see him there go and see him as he puts on an FANTASTIC show. I Hope he comes back to Cooly Rocks On next year.
