GODFREY JOHNSON LIVE will feature songs by Supertramp, Billy Joel, The Boomtown Rats, Stephen Sondheim, Joe Jackson, Tears For Fears, Noël Coward, Harry Chapin and many more. Musical comedy at its best with a dash of pathos!!! There will also be a chance for the audience to request a few songs. Hopefully the performer will have his wits about him.
