                                                           Supply  songs  are  being  played  or  our  neighbor’s
                                                           karaoke machine on  high  volume during  our  town’s
                                                           fiesta, where, of course, Air Supply songs are highly
                                                           requested. From televised singing contests, movies,
                                                           commercials, online video trends, and now memes on
                                                           the internet, Air Supply songs are definitely everyone’s
                                                           favorite.

                                                           Being able to cover one of their shows for their “The
                                                           Lost  In  Love  Tour  2022”  was  such  a  nostalgic
                                                           experience. Best friends since 1975, Graham Russell
                                                           and Russell Hitchcock, along with the band, gave such
                                                           an outstanding and memorable performance!

                                                           The show gave me constant chills just listening to the
                                                           distinct voice of Russell Hitchcock -- he never missed
                                                           a note. He possesses the same powerful voice I heard
                                                           on  the  radio  decades  ago  when  I  was  still  a  kid.
                                                           Graham Russell’s iconic guitar parts remained smooth
                                                           and  melodic  as  always  and  he  still  has  that  same
                                                           contagious  energy  today  when  he  performs  on  the
                                                           stage.
