^^^very cool. Love Allen Toussaint. Also I haven't seen Los Lobos for years, I'd like to see them again soon.
edit: Just looked Los Lobos up, they're not coming near me but they are doing some CA, WA, OR and AZ dates with Los Lonely Boys and some with both Los Lonely Boys and Alejando Escovedo, those would be fun.
i'm not a huge fan but kraftwerk (3D) was really impressive in concert. definitely a don't miss.

Tye did you get to Jazzfest this year?
I am such a fan of Anders live, his recordings are good but dont tell the story of his live playing.
We'v seen LL a bunch, the last time Cesar got pissed and left the stage in the middle of the last song and didnt come back for the encore, (Cinnamon Girl). The show is memorable because my wife's ex jumped onstage and tried to sing at one of the mics, the drunken idiot. David Hidalgo is a nice player, love that band.
I have been to a few music festivals and High Sierra is definitely the best by FAR. I mean what other music festivals can you bring cans and bottles to two of the stages and then bring alcohol to the main stage as long as it isn't in a can or bottle!!! Even at the main stage I have seen people wheel in kegs and coolers full of cocktails. And yeah it is so chill no one ever has a bad time and everyone looks after each other. Lastly the drugs are really high quality and cheap because they aren't your typical dealers to make money they are there to share their stash at cost!!!Quote:

Not a ticket I would think to buy, but the missus came through, the weather cooperated, the La Crema flowed like, well, wine....
Beck was pretty good last night at Harborlights
although you really cant go wrong with that venue
Wolfmother at the BUT in SB Was ripping. Then Pimps Of Joy time to end the week was fun to bogie to.
Just got tickets to the Bend show; can't wait!Quote:

Ten Years After ended with a nice tribute to Alvin.
^ that looks awesome.
in that vein caught The Guess Who a few weeks ago in a small 1500 seat venue. all of $20. Sure its only two original members and thier old as fuck but they did do EVERYTHING they were supposed to. And if you were around in the late 60s early 70s, that's quite a catalog.
Got got got no time...
Trying to mix a ski trip and concert for the last weekend of August. Flying out to Portland for Aug-Sept turns. The Breeders are also playing that weekend and the show is sold out. Anyone know of anyways of getting tix without paying more 3x times face value with Tickets reselling sites?

We saw Max Creek last night in Ludlow, MA at the fish and game club. I took my son and wife's cousin (they're 19). My kid has seen the creek before (he was a child) and was rightfully blown away by scott murawskis playing. He is just ridiculously good. I've been seeing them since I was younger than my kid. Kinda cool for me to go creekin with him.
Headed to Tanglewood again monday, some friends invited us to see Grace. Love Tanglewood, the weather is going to be awesome, and while the Nocturnals arent exactly my cup of tea musically, i always like to get some pictures of GP. Anyone else going?
Wife's cousin saw Todd Rundgren Friday and said he was fantastic. Not surprising at all.
PSA for you Bluegrass folk...

Queens of the Stone Age at Red Rocks was amazing. Loved them since the beginning, and in between.
After that show, Jam bands and Techno sucks.
Winwood supporting the Allmans in Hartford Saturday. Both bands were great but holy shit are the brothers firing on all cylinders. Decided to road trip to winnepesaukee to see them again tomorrow (and drink and ski and whatnot). They just jam ridiculously hard, like usual.
They put blue sky back in the lineup after not playing it for years after booting Dickie. Fun times at the Brothers. Go see them. .
Caught World Party Thursday night. It was so good that we came back for seconds Friday night. Great venue to see anybody on your list, City Winery in NYC. High end bar restaurant with a stage. Got to hang with the band after the show.... Super cool guys. Much fun was had... Paying dearly for it today.
Johnny Lang rocked the house last night!
Saw these guys at this crazy little festival on a farm by the ocean in Mass. this past Saturday.

Nikki Glaspie plays drums for both. Had a nice chat with Ivan Neville, cool guy.
But probably the highlight of the festival was these guys, Dynasty Electric:

"Chrissie Hynde on acid" was the best description I came up with. Outstanding.
About 20 other bands too. Cool event.

Went to the Bridge School Benefit last weekend. It ranged from a serious meh in Elvis Costello, to fantastic, with sets from Tom Waits (Les Claypool on the bass!) and My Morning Jacket - including a Neil Young appearance to sing Oh Sweet Nuthin' in memory of Lou Reed. Neil Played a few songs with Heart, who was also a pretty good show for as old as they are.

It was fucking good all around. Great day, I suggest you go see it if theres a good lineup.
That looked like a great time Brice, thank you for posting that up.
Finally got a chance to see Zakir Hussain the other night at the KKL in Luzern with "Remember Shakti". Four incredible musicians with vocalist. Definitely worth a look if they come near you.

nice, paxti! they played in GVA the other week but a tuesday night and too busy with work. i saw them in zurich in 2000. they were incredible. i've never seen an audience with more smiles that than show.
on the other end of the spectrum, i saw deafheaven last night in a farmhouse in a cow pasture. mesmerizing in its own way.
caught Phil & Phriends at at the Capital Theater. Anders Osborne, Luther Dickinson, Jason Crosby, Phil, .....all i can say us that i look forward to what these guys will create together live if they continue to explore and enjoy playing together like they do. Great night. Trying to move the schedule around to get to the Nokia in the city next weekend.

you and I both know it isnt about the vocals, they get those out of the way so they can jam. Did you see phil signed on to play the cap and brooklyn bowl for 45 shows in 2014. that and TXR. as i age, band residencies and VIP packages are the order of the day.

Next week the thirteen I'll be on the road to see Airbourne in Lyon, France.
My fourth concert this year after Gojira in april, Roger Waters in september in Paris and the Sonisphere Festival in june where I was with a bunch of known ski people.
Saw the black crowes at a small club in St. Paul on Saturday -- great stuff, all standing room but that was just fine as those guys are perfect for shufflin to
I saw Built To Spill @ State Theater in Ithaca on Sat.
The highlight of the evening was how fucked up I got myself. First time in years I've had to abandon a freshly poured beer...had to pull the chute.
Acoustics weren't fantastic and I was a mess, so not the greatest experience. Last time I saw them they blew the roof off the joint (different venue with great acoustics)

America this Friday night, Robert Cray/Gary Hoey Sunday night.
Saw Gary Clark Jr. last night. This guy is getting labeled as "the future of texas blues" but I don't really get it. Talented, sure. The guitar work was flashy in spots but mostly when there was a break he could run with, he didn't. To me the show was unfocused and self-indulgent. Plus he played his guitar through a synth most of the time, I like the way guitars sound personally. He does have a really good voice for soul though. I'd give it a B, the wife really dug it though so what do I know?
He's playing here next week at the Vic, which is a decent venue. They're really pumping him, backing up the Kings of Leon in March at the United Center, which it much too big for either of them.
Los Lonely Boys had 14 year old Tallen Latz playing with them and he's the future of Texas blues. That kid can rock.
D'oh......
Chris Cornell acoustic at the Calvin in Northampton MA. Excellent show. Exceptional talent.

America. I know, but they were actually very good. Plus we were entertaining and they ate that shit up. Gotta play to the audience.

Robert Cray Sunday night was more like it.

I saw America about 2 years ago and thought they were great!
