Photo Coverage: Pelican Cabaret Cafe Features Rob Russell

Pop up Cabaret Rooms keep popping up across the country. New York City's Beach Cafe may have some cold weather now, but the Pelican Cafe in Palm Beach County is hot on all levels. Sunday's featured entertainer Rob Russell is not just another "pretty voice" singing a bunch of great tunes. Mr. Russell creates a party and he makes sure everyone in the audience gets an invite. Likewise, Mark Frangione, owner and executive chef does not just create the wonderful dishes. He sounds like a museum curator explaining the masterpieces in the building (and they are) as he takes you on a tour of the menu.

Kim Forman was on keyboard and vocals with Rob and was very agile in her ability to accompany the spontaneous members of the audience who decided to join in. Legends 100.3 FM was in the house and who knows, it's world wide audience might even be hearing about the party with Rob Russell.

No “spoilers” here, but if you want to learn how it’s done, go see Donna McKechnie. She has information we didn’t even know we needed and I would like to be at the head of the class. Awe-inspiring.
