I saw The Platters, The Duprees, last weekend. Awesome show
Jerry Blavat puts on every yr.
Dont get me wrong, i love Clapton and Charlie Parker too, but i had never
seen the early groups, and the acoustics were awesome.

tix start at 900.00, prolly sold out by now, it went up 2 days ago.
2 shows, way past my means, 13 yrs ago i would be there.

I saw Starship last month with my girlfriend and her parents. Great time. It was at a casino so free drinks and a semi-small venue. My girlfriends parents actually got the spelling of her name from the song Sara so it was cool to see it live in concert with her.

I saw that as well in Dallas, what a show!
[Reply]

Periphery, TesseracT and Monuments.

If you've heard of more than 1 of these bands, I'm gonna be impressed!
[Reply]

Don't get your hopes up James :-)

I saw Jeff Daniels Saturday before last.
[Reply]

Dave, if you know ANY of those bands, and I'll be uber-impressed!

Is that Jeff "Dumb & Dumber" Daniels? What are his live shows like?
[Reply]

Yeah I loved it and have been looking forward to seeing him forever.

I wanted to see John Gorka when he was in Tulsa this past week but the snow storm sorta put an end to that little adventure >.<

What did ya think, Tom?
[Reply]

Show was outstanding Lumpy....Slash can rip, and Myles Kennedy is much better than Axl at this stage of the game.
[Reply]

Same guy yep.
He is a pretty good musician and performer James.
A buddy and I went for our birthdays in January.My friend is an accomplished guitar and banjo player himself,so musically I follow his lead lol.
Reasonable ticket price at a beautiful venue,it was worth it.Jeff writes some good stuff,blues mostly.He's good for some good belly laughs too.
A bunch of his stuff is on youtube if you're curious. :-)
[Reply]

Always thought Slash was xcellent,is this show on tour?
[Reply]

To be fair, Myles only has to be awake at show time to be better than Axl :-)

Will do. He seems to have potential when not with Jim Carrey.

I don't know if Australian comedian Tim Minchin has made the US yet, but for funny songs, give him a listen!
[Reply]

These days, sad but true. To give Myles his due, he is one of the better rock singers I have seen live in many years.

looking forward to Bon Jovi tomorrow

Mumford and Sons, New Orleans, Nov 5th. I will see them again, along with the Avett Brothers, at Jazzfest April 29th.
