  1. Great photos Tim! Marred only by the terribly written review. Better to look at your photos on Flickr and not have them polluted by that writing and (lack of) editing. I got to play "Where's Waldo" and found myself in the crowd.
  2. Just got to say I am listening to the first Branford show for the first time in a while. Reminding myself what a masterpiece this second set is. Assume everyone posting here has wrapped their ears around this show once or twice, but if not don't delay. Nassau 1990-3-29. Sent from my Windows Phone using Tapatalk
  3. That may be, but I love Hickman's playing. And I prefer the Cracker songbook. Not that I'm knocking on CVB... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  4. Love Johnny! Big reason I always prefer Cracker to CVB. Hope you get some lessons, and make some good Johnny beer.
  5. New song http://www.jambands.com/news/2014/03/27/medeski-martin-wood-nels-cline-premiere-a-new-tune
  6. Never listened to that first show before. Love that they started it all with I Must Be High-my ringtone!
  7. Right. I stand corrected then, I was referring to the Bottom Line shows in July 1974. Those were the shows I passed on, 2 nights in a row. My brother was clued in, I was clueless. All for what turned out to be a lousy girlfriend, what a waste.
  8. Actually, the shows were right before Born to Run was released. Ten shows over 5 nights. I think these are the shows that led to the famous line "I've seen the future of rock n roll and his name is Bruce Springsteen." The thing is I liked Bruce at the time, listened to The Wild The Innocent... all the time, I was just too lame to leave my girlfriend for the night and go with my brother. BRUTAL is right.
  9. Here's my small club musical regret. August '75, living at home on LI before going off to college. My brother, 6 years older, tries to get me to go with him to the Bottom Line to see this guy Bruce Springsteen. I'm more interested in hanging with my girlfriend and friends and blow him off. Next morning he tells me what an idiot I am, and he's going again and this time I should go with him. Again, I take a pass. I haven't been into Bruce for years now, but i still regret those 2 decisions. Sent from my Windows Phone using Tapatalk
  10. Tinariwen, at the Paradise Rock Club. I'm kinda tired, but my friends are telling me this is a "must" show.
  11. I will second and modify "he said hopefully" to that!
  12. That sucks. I was planning to drive down from Boston in about 2 hours, so I'm staying put at work. As JW Harding noted, I would have been happy to go even with Gregg being ill. Sure, he's a central figure with his singing and B-3 playing, but I know I would have enjoyed it enough with the players they had filling in to make it worth it for me.
  13. Small venue! Two nights. Great news! My prediction: you will be more of a Phan by the closing notes of the second night encore.
  14. Damn, I was all set to head down tomorrow. I would have been OK if Gregg was too sick to perform given the reports I read about the weekend shows. Hope for a quick recovery. http://www.jambase.com/Articles/121141/Allman-Brothers-To-Reschedule-Rest-Of-Beacon-Run
  15. Well let's just say I disagree. Maybe I can live with the post-'92 qualifier. But having grown up in the Keith and Donna era, it took me many years to attune my ears to Brent's playing and singing. I'm sure there were plenty of clunkers during his tenure. And I thought there were some fantastic shows Fall '90 and Fall '91. Yes, Hornsby was a big part of the reason, but still...
  16. Voodoonola has struck again. posted full show video to MSG 9-20-90. I was at this show, it's a monster. Particularly the second set, which I call the single best GD set I saw. The China/ Rider is off the hook. If nothing else, check out set 2, either this video or audio. Trucking starts around 58 minute mark.
  17. I don't know about that DBoon. Bronchitis in a 70 year old with a liver transplant just might be something you don't screw around with.
  18. Philadelphia Folk Festival, same summer as first Solid Sound
  19. Has anyone heard any pono music? Is it released yet?
  20. Having beers with a buddy this week, and we remembered probably the most significant "small" show I saw was The Cure at the Underground in Boston, in front of maybe 50 people.
  21. I've got tickets for the 25th. Driving down from Boston, Between the weather forecast and Gregg's bronchitis, wondering about this.
