TimmyB Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 CHRIS HILLMANHUGH'S ROOMTORONTO, ONTARIOWEDNESDAY APRIL 11 & THURSDAY APRIL 12, 2007.$38 ADVANCE $42 DOOR For ticket reservations please call: (416) 531-6604 Hugh's Room is a warm, spacious and inviting 200 seat music venue located in Roncesvalles Villagein Toronto, featuring exceptional local, national and international musicians. Tantalizing salads, appetizers and lovely main dishes. I am very excited to be seeing Chris Hillman again, being an original member for my favorite American band the Byrds. And to see this Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee for his work with the Byrds and former member of the Flying Burrito Bros., Manassas and the Desert Rose Band in such an intimate venue makes it all the better.

M. (hristine Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Funny you should mention this, as recently a friend and I had a long conversation about Byrds/ Poco/ Flying Burrito Brothers/ Loggins & Messina / Crosby Stills Nash/ Desert Rose Band/ Emmy Lou etc, etc. Gave me a big hankering to update my CD collection.

(Loggins and Messina though...you should really think twice about that.....)i saw chris back in 1993 and he put on a great show. i have no idea what he's like onstage now. ...and that's all i've got to say about that.I saw him with McGuinn, Hillman and Clark way longer ago than I would like to admit.

It's interesting the way all of those people came together, and the direction they all went in the subsequent years. From the sublime to really cheesy. Also, I think Chris Hillman and Randy Meisner became born again, didn't they? (Good to see you around too, Lou.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This makes perfect sense, since I am sure Jorma and Chris know each other well from the old days. LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
