The Poojer Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 if you are going to one of the TX shows, most of them are not unknown artists, or country....head and the heart are a great singer songwriter group, edie brickell....still have a major crush on her, even if she does beat paul simon on a regular basis, Ryan Bingham is awesome and Lukas Nelson and Promise of the Real are really hot...oh and he's Willie's kid.....too bad you aren't getting Van Morrison, he's on the Philly bill. 2 hours ago, The Real Buffalo Joe said: Fiance just bought be tickets for the Outlaw Music Festival tour. Willie Nelson headliner. Sturgil Simpson. (Look him up, sounds like he came right out of the 70s.) And a bunch of other unknown country artists. Looked up the lineup. I thought good country was dead. It isn't. It's just not on the radio anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 19 minutes ago, The Real Buffalo Joe said: Did he play mostly solo stuff, or Aerosmith? 90% Aerosmith, with a few excellent covers (Whole Lotta Love, Piece of My Heart, Come Together) and two songs from his latest album, which were much better live than on the recording. Going in, I was worried about the set list being "country-fied" but it was a straight-up rock show... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read rumors that he was gonna tour with the remaining members of LZ a few years ago, but I guess it never came to fruition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Aerosmith's going out again this fall, but mostly outside the U.S. They played the New Orleans Jazz Festival in April, so they're still keeping active...

Augie Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 A buddy called me with an extra ticket to Sheryl Crow at the Botanical Gardens at Piedmont Park, Atlanta last week. Not exactly my thing, but I was shocked at how much fun I had. Great venue, good music, selling wine by the bottle, and I didn’t get arrested when I accidentally wandered into the unmarked but restricted area where the band busses were located waiting to head out. When they threatened arrest, I said “well, maybe somebody should have stopped me then! I may be a bit drunk, but I’ll be sober in the morning. Will you and your people be competent tomorrow? Or more of the same?” Or...something like that. Good times. I’m usually much more gentle, but she was not a nice person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Berry, REO Speedwagon Creedence Clearwater Revisited (original bass player and drummer. More than a tribute band, less than the real thing) and George Thorogood. As long as the saw the record and sharpie in my hand, they didn't have a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuvian Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 saw Judas Priest in March (excellent) and Bettye Lavette a few weeks ago (good). Seeing the Proclaimers in September and John Mellencamp in October. Might take in Chaka Khan in a few weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I looked up user reviews of Willie Nelson on Ticketmaster to see what people think of how he sounds in his old age. One user wrote "It seemed like Willie was high on pot the whole time. 2 stars." Honestly, if he doesn't seem high when I go see him on Sunday, I'll probably ask for a refund.

section122 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Thursday I'll be making the 2 hour trip to Buffalo Canalside for Umphrey's McGee and Big Something. If you love guitar work you should be there as well. It's only $5! Beth Hart will be playing in July and she is an amazing female blues singer. Any of you Buffalonians have any advice about parking/what to expect/ etc? It says it goes from 5 to 10 but what time do the bands usually go on?

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Also just found out Chubby Checker is doing a free concert on the 3rd. Didn't even know he was alive, let alone still performing. Willie on Sunday, and Chubby Checker on Tuesday. Two living legends of their respective genre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I skipped a Jerry Lee show and stil regret it. Saw Chuck Berry a few years back. Got his autograph. He wasn't what he used to be, but he was 83 years old, and a living legend, so I'm glad I went.

The Poojer Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Chubby lives very close to me in Paoli, I've seen him taking his garbage out...nearly ran off the road trying to call my Mom to let her know I just saw him 54 minutes ago, The Real Buffalo Joe said: Also just found out Chubby Checker is doing a free concert on the 3rd.

Also Slayer/Anthrax/Lamb of God in August. They put on a fun show. Nothing computerized. Nothing but four guys, granted with two synths when they get into the later stuff, for obvious reasons. One of the best tribute bands I've ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 (edited) Saw Rosanne Cash in Cooperstown on Saturday. Excellent as always and the Glimmerglass venue was great. I hope they have more one-off concerts there in the future... Edited June 26, 2018 by Lurker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
