I'm still avoiding large shows because of COVID, but I may break out to see Steve Hackett on his Foxtrot at 50 tour, at a lovely historic theater nearby. I also just got a ticket to catch a livestream of Shakti (John McLaughlin, Zakir Hussain, etc) with John Scofield(!) on Thursday, looking forward to that. 1 Quote Turn up the speaker Hop, flop, squawk It's a keeper -Captain Beefheart, Ice Cream for Crow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tu-Ner was amazing, especially the improvs. Blessed to call these guys friends. I hope they keep this project going. 1 1 Quote Editor - RECORDING Magazine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nursers Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Saw Postmodern Jukebox night before last, first time I've seen them and was amazed at quality of whole band - but the singers in particular were stunning. Effie Passero I'd never heard of before, but I'm one hello of a fan now.

Doerfler Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 saw Peter Gabrial last week with Manu Katche and Tony Levin as the rhythm section and a selection of other very acomplished musicians including David Rhodes on guitar. Words will not do justice. Red Rain did bring me to tears. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Bryce Posted September 28, 2023 Author Share Posted September 28, 2023 I had a killer concert weekend. Saw Hiromi with Stanley Clarke on Saturday night (probably the single most masterful performance on an upright bass I’ve ever seen), then Snarky Puppy (with Cory Henry showing up for the encore) on Sunday evening. 😎 Can’t remember the last time I saw so much good music in such a short period of time. 🥰🥳 dB 1 1 Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Quinn Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 My wife and I saw the Average White Band on 9/16 at The Suffolk Theater. As many likely know, fellow forum member @Reezekeys (aka Rob Aries) plays keys (and bass on a few songs) in the band. The band was awesome and Rob played great! It was wonderful to finally meet Rob in person after the show. 4 Quote https://alquinn.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RABid Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Last good band I saw was Oak Ridge Boys with an old friend and ex bandmate as music director and playing lead guitar. I look over this thread and think about how little new music we absorb. I need to get out and see some teenagers play. 1 1 Quote This post edited for speling.

jerrythek Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I’ll add my voice to those who saw Peter Gabriel. Magnificent. Sublime. Artistic. I could go on and on. PG was in fine voice, the sets/lights/projection were just beautiful. Of course the band was great, with special recognition to the woman who played cello and was Peter’s vocal “foil”. Saw brother Jim Alfredson last Tuesday at the same theatre Al saw AWB. Jim was his usual tasty self, and the band is good, if a little guitar-loud (to be expected?). Second time I’ve seen him with Larry McCray and thoroughly enjoyed it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Bryce Posted October 9, 2023 Author Share Posted October 9, 2023 Way psyched to see the Gabriel show this week. We saw Sting at the Hollywood Bowl last night. Outstanding performances all around. Killer set list as well. dB 4 Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Motif Max Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I don't get to a lot of big name concerts partly due to a lot of the bands I like not touring in my region much and ticket prices. I did enjoy catching one of my favorite modern rock/metal bands, Halocene, live on tour a few weeks ago. Saw they were coming to town a few months ago and didn't think I'd actually ever see them live, so I just had to. Sweet performance - their music blends elements of metal and electronic/synths with a strong lead singer. Had to rep MPN at the show of course . There were a few other bands in the lineup too including Hooked Like Helen, who had a great keys player with a Yamaha slab of some type.

GovernorSilver Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Sofar Sounds is an organization that aims to put on concerts at intimate venues like someone's house. I typically don't like that you do not learn who the performing artists are until you buy a ticket. However, the Sofar shows in my area take place at a cider bar close to where I live. It's a lower risk investment for me because if I don't like what I'm hearing, I can be home in a few minutes. This was the best Sofar show I've been to yet. All 3 acts were solid. The 2nd act was selling a self-produced photo magazine printed on surprisingly high quality paper. My favorite was the 1st act, Kimaya Diggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
