I only own his Comes Alive album, cause, you know, I went to college. But that's probably the only tunes of his I know. I wouldn't want to take up a seat from someone that may be more of a fan of his. Edited February 24, 2019 by Just Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy the ticket, show up two hours early outside the venue. Look for the person with the sad face. Sell them the ticket, or even better, give them the ticket.

I wouldn’t worry about it, there should be plenty of seats available, especially if he’s playing bigger places like the Garden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Beard Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 I was in college in the late 1970’s. Frampton Comes Alive was pretty popular. I always liked the start of Do You Feel.... Well woke up this morning with a wine glass in my handWhose wine, what wine, where the hell did I dine?Must have been a dream I don't believe where I've beenCome on, let's do it again Do you, you, feel like I do? When he talks through that air tube thing, he said “I want to thank you” and people tried to believe that he was saying something dirty. I never thought so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) I've seen Frampton three times at Artpark and he's always put on a great show. Set list highlights for me are always great versions of Black Hole Sun and While My Guitar Gently Weeps. He's still a great player but his voice is starting to go, so It makes sense that he's calling it quits... https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/peter-frampton-degenerative-muscle-disease-ibm-797556/ Edited February 24, 2019 by Lurker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T&C Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) I did get to see him once, back in the late 80's at the old Tampa stadium... he was Bowies guitar player. It seemed like a month after Frampton Comes Alive came out everyone had it... it was alright I guess but that was the highlight of his career imo, although I do like Humble Pie. This was before Humble Pie... I've had it a couple of times but it really isn't my style. Edited February 24, 2019 by T&C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turk71 Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Saw him a couple summers ago with Steve Miller, they were great. He only played a few songs from 'Comes Alive' and mixed in a lot of great classic stuff. I hadn't seen him since the Rich Stadium show in the 70s. I would recommend going to the show while you can, I think Jason Bonhams Zep band is opening. 5 hours ago, Rico said: I will always remember him most as Billy Shears in the Sgt.
