Review
I feel very privileged to have seen and enjoyed this show.   One guy sits on the side, playing moody acoustic guitar.  The other – Joe Bone – with only his body and his voice (note – no microphone) brings the story of gun slinging super sleuth Bruce Bane alive.   He depicted all the larger than life characters superbly, painted wonderful word paintings of all the action in all its gory detail and ! 

A great understated relationship with the audience was established.   Joe draws you in to the story.   Quite luminous.   Great writing and equally fabulous storytelling.  

Suitable / ready for rural touring?
yes
Would you book them ?
yes
Would it be worth pursuing this company to consider work in the future?
If they are up for it.
