I'm jealous. I used to lust after a Neal Schon sig, it's a freaking beast of a guitar. https://prsguitars.com/privatestock/gallery_guitar/neal_schon_limited_run
August 13, 20232 yr Hello Sonoma ! Swing daddy! , With the Alpha Rhythm Kings. They moved one couple enough to leave their blanket and dance. Edited August 13, 20232 yr by Grahame
August 14, 20232 yr Good afternoon Yountville But first we'd like to thank our sponsors, Sotherby's International Realty, so don't forget to rush out and buy a house after the concert. Now some classic rock, with The Fog City Swampers (And the good people of Yountville) Who were also moved to dance by the end. . Edited August 14, 20232 yr by Grahame
August 15, 20232 yr ^Guitar Nerd Observation. You'll Notice that the Guitarist doesn't have an amp / stack, unlike the Bassist. That's because he had a Line 6 Helix on the floor, direct into their Behringer PA (with stereo subs) system. It worked and delivered all the required tones.
August 25, 20232 yr https://archive.org/details/billystrings2023-08-24.4017vl Saw Billy Strings last night at the Knoxville Coliseum. Crowd was obnoxious but the show was brilliant.
August 26, 20232 yr And as the sun went down They played on into the night (But not too late, this is San Anselmo, after all)
August 26, 20232 yr Is the lady in the straw fedora a groupie of the keyboard player or band security? She never moved through your first shot to the last.

August 28, 20232 yr Hello Corte Madera! Rounding out the summer season with Danny Click and the Hell Yeah's (He has some groupies who know all the words!)
August 28, 20232 yr Diet Coke and The Beach Boys 5th row center, but the bloody chairs were aligned wrong to the stage, so it was just a hair left of center, but still, not too shabby. The Beach Boys obviously had to give it up to the greatest Beach Boy, Sir Uncle Jesse. Sadly, he wasn't there this day, but they're playing Vegas in a couple weeks, and I wouldn't be surprised...

September 9, 20232 yr Danny Click and the hell yeahs, but this time under lights in Fourth Street San Rafael. Some of his groupies from Corte Madera are here Edited September 9, 20232 yr by Grahame
September 10, 20232 yr Ciao Novato! Opera at the Hamilton Amphitheater. We arrived early to secure a place in the shade at the Amphitheater during set up / sound check There was added drama, as their headlining baritone Richard Rittelmann was flying in from Paris that day, had been delayed in customs, was hiring a car, and was in the process of driving up, so would he make it for the big performance or not? In the meantime, they rearranged the program on the fly, and apart from a few teething troubles with their wireless sound system put on quite a show. Richard arrived And delivered. Thanks Novato. Back/Side-Stage with the stars (note the Ross goodie bag!) Edited September 10, 20232 yr by Grahame
October 12, 20232 yr Peter Gabriel last night in SF. I’m glad I got to see him while he is still doing his thing. With the same warhorse band he has been with for damn near 50 years at this point, no less. He can still hit the high notes, but his voice is more fragile now that gives the songs a different feel, appropriate for a guy who is now 73. The new songs are pretty good!
December 5, 20232 yr No more KISS live shows as they now get the ABBA treatment thanks to ILM. https://www.theregister.com/2023/12/04/kiss_are_now_immortal/ https://ew.com/kiss-use-abba-avatar-technology-become-immortal-8410355 https://gizmodo.com/kiss-digital-avatars-hologram-abba-ilm-tour-1851070285 https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/dec/04/kiss-digital-avatars-final-show-madison-square-garden-tour https://www.theverge.com/2023/12/3/23986652/kiss-final-show-farewell-tour-digital-avatars (You can see the immortal version of the band from the 28-minute mark.) https://vimeo.com/890053166/432d6a9749?share=copy or cut to the chase
December 5, 20232 yr Their longevity is amazing, almost like the Rolling Stones. All the above makes me remember when Gene Simmons was on the Howard Stern show. He readily admitted that everything Kiss did was carefully planned and crafted, and no amount of merchandising was too much. I seem to recall a phrase "Pennies and nickels, Howard....pennies and nickels" (meaning it ALL makes a difference and ALL adds up)..... But I still fondly remember my Kiss Alive cassette tape, and am still working out issues from having it stolen (by a counselor no less) at Summer camp back in 1977 😄.... And making out with a girl from the next year's camp after slow-dancing to Beth....
