Doctor B Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Just bought tickets for Bryan Ferry at the Ryman for August. Never had a chance to see Roxy Music. Never thought I would have this opportunity. Should be excellent, as almost all things are at the Ryman. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chuckrh Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Cool venue to see him. His voice isn't what it once was but he still puts on a good show & always has a stellar band. I was lucky to see Roxy on the "High Road" tour. 1 of my all time fave concerts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doctor B Posted August 3, 2016 Author Share Posted August 3, 2016 Saw the show last night at the Ryman. Very rowdy and happy crowd- I don't think I was the oldest there. Great band: 3 guitarists, bass, drums, keyboard, violin,, backup singers, and the best, a striking lady on sax , other horns, and keyboard. Ferry seemed thrilled with the crowd. Very little talk between songs. All performed wonderfully. Highlights were of course, the older songs: Slave to Love, More than This, Avalon, and my personal favorite, Virginia Plain. Encore included Jealous Guy. I never had the chance to see Roxy Music and last night was wonderful. I took my oldest daughter who is familiar with the songs and she also loved it. Great night. Jeff Tweedy introduced Nick Lowe at the Ryman as the world's coolest guy. My opinion only, but Bryan Ferry is so cool and debonair that he makes Nick look pale in comparison.

chuckrh Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I saw RM several times on that tour. What venue ?The old PNE arena in Vancouver, BC. I remember being shocked that we couldn't score beer at 7-11 on the way to the show. At that time there was no point to 7-11 without beer! Younger, wilder days...

What purpose did it serve, other than beer. ;-D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
