Venus. Said he wrote this one with jay just up the road from here .

highlight for me. either way as well.

we were front row, Jeff commented on how we were an exemplary crowd.

was super quiet in there , like pin drop quiet.

was a good liquer store cocaine story about him working there in bville, before empty corner.

was in a good mood, talkative, tons of wisecracking and humor, 

 everything very well played , seemed to be playing for keeps tonight .

 

opener was good, better than expected.

Via had a flub, other than that was flawless night .

how many shows are you doing on this tour ?

 

I actually requested Jeff do this song, and dedicate it to Jay specifically, on the Request feature on the website.  Unfortunately I was ultimately unable to make the 2+ hour drive with my vehicle, but I was absolutely there in spirit.  I know Jeff & Jay is much bigger than just myself, and that their bond meant a ton to everyone.  Also, that there was a heavy Jay theme to his show there in 2019 with a heckler.

Can you please elaborate on what he said exactly?  Everything you can remember!  Thanks!

Hello!  I was a VC member here from years and years ago so I'm sure we interacted at one point.  I'd just like to ask...

Could you help me find an audio copy of Jay's PALACE 1919?  I know you are a big Jay fan, and I've seen your posts and stuff over the years.

Jay and LeRoy are huge inspirations for me.  I've taken lessons from LeRoy years ago and recently re-connected... very exciting.  Jay was a myth, a legend that I got to contact, see live, interact and talk with.  He talked to me about some guitar questions years ago, and at his show supporting The Magnificent Defeat in 2006 at Fitzgerald's in Berwyn, I finally got to meet and talk to him... he signed my poster, personalized it and drew a caricature of himself!

I've been digging back to gather all his solo material I can find but... PALACE 1919 is the one that is most elusive.  I had it physically in my hands like 20 something years ago!
