At Somerville Theatre, Jonathan Richman is his unique self
As I watched Jonathan Richman perform at the Lincoln Theater Friday night, it struck me how he has much in common with the late comedian Andy Kaufman. To be sure, Richman doesn’t share Kaufman’s penchant for playing games with and “working” his audience
But when Richman and drummer Tommy Larkins walked onstage at Off Broadway last Friday night, looking almost small under the white lights, I was reminded that Jonathan Richman is only mortal.
