Sam and Dave did not send a crowd into a frenzy, they led them there. Theirs was not a calculated and choreographed effort designed to hit all the right emotional buttons. Rather, it was raw energy, from the heart, from the feet, from the spirit, and like Moses leading the Israelites, like a preacher before a congregation, Sam and Dave didn't send their audiences anywhere they wouldn't go first. Their excitement parted the waters, and everyone waded in.
