We love all three bands....But idk. Hootie was out of it as went on. Could tell later in evening...and maybe everyone else too high and/drunk to tell. We drove 10hrs to see. I was going to cherish every moment. Last saw them 20yrs ago in SC at house of blues. I hav seen as just Darius in past few yrs. Only time felt as nite went on he was getting a little sloppy. He knows the words. And his voice is spetacular. But we noticed the tone off n slur a bit. So didnt stay till end. Not wanted as our memory. But he is still the showman.

Hootie & the Blowfish Biography
The quartet met when they were freshman at the University of South Carolina in Columbia. Mark Bryan heard Darius Rucker singing in the showers of the dorm they shared and was impressed by his vocal ability. Bryan and Rucker began playing cover tunes as The Wolf Brothers; eventually Bryan and Rucker hooked up with Felber, a former high school band mate of Bryan's, and Jim "Soni" Sonefeld as Hootie & The Blowfish. (The unlikely moniker was borrowed from the nicknames of two college friends.)
