Bob Gollihur Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Enjoyed the crap outa Tower of Power complete with Rocco last Thursday, they put on a great show, tighter than a {insert your own obscene reference}. Drove down to Alexandria VA for a long weekend, they played a neat little venue, The Birchmere. Highly recommended, excellent food and many beers, but get there early for the best seats! 1000 Upright Bass Links, Luthier Directory, Teacher Directory - http://www.gollihurmusic.com/links.cfm [highlight] - Life is too short for bad tone - [/highlight] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wally Malone Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 A friend of mine, Jerry Cortez is the guitar player and I've been following their travels on FB and they've been keeping up a really heavy touring schedule. He posts some great photos from around the world. They've always been one of my favorite bands. Wally I have basses to play, places to be and good music to make!

Richard W Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Always loved that moment on "Waiting for Columbus" when, as "Spanish Moon" is fading out, Lowell George shouts "Tower of Power horns!"

Saw them a year or two ago at Yoshi's in Oakland, and, man, did they ever deliver! Gives a whole new meaning to the word "tight."

SteveC Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 It's been a few years since they've been anywhere close to me. I saw them at a casino show by Minneapolis a while back and they were great. Rocco was inspirational and friendly to chat with for a couple minutes after the show. I wish I didn't live so far away from live performances. They really fire me up and I could use it right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed them last year I think, even though Nancy told me about them playing less than an hour from where I live "I'm a work in progress."
