Thanks to all for the input. Historically, he hasn't played in the US much. He's playing the symphony hall in Seattle which would be cool but is on a bad night. I might go see him at Pearl Theater @ the Palms in Vegas. Good venue, I saw Jeff Beck & Brian Wilson there. It's a little sterile but the sound is excellent.

Has anybody seen Bryan in the last few years? I'm thinking about going to see him in a few weeks. Hesitating because last time I saw him, he was kind of mediocre. This was several years ago though. I saw Roxy Music on the High Road tour & that was amazing.

I don't even want to look at those pictures. I remember the day he died vividly. I was working in Seattle music biz at the time. In the middle of the Seattle heyday. Things changed for me after he died & not for the better. RIP Kurt.

Went to Las Vegas. It was pretty good. I'd give it a B grade. The highlight for me was Midnight Rambler. Was a little disappointed they didn't use Mick Taylor for a few more songs. Unless they play near where I live, probably my last show. I'm good with that, as the show was decent.

During the year I don't watch a lot of college basketball but the tournament is fun. Luckily, I get to work virtual today & can get fully into it. They blocked video feeds at work yesterday but I could get score updates. I did 7 brackets this year & took a new approach. Ignored the experts & just went by gut feeling. Got interested by the Warren Buffett contest. Anyway, I kicked

Quotetreaclefingers Quotebv I don't want to be a party killer, but before they did the Brooklyn/Newark and half a year later summer US/Canada tour, how many years was it since they toured North America? I think it was Nov 2006, Vancouver, right? It took them six years to return. They have a "missing link" with Miami, Atlanta, Houston, Seattle, Vancouver, so I would not be surpr

I really enjoyed most of the show. Couple of misfires (Imagine Dragons springs to mind). Joe Walsh was on it. "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" was stellar. Was nice to see Peter Frampton in the band, too.

On west coast, so just starting show. Not reading spoilers above. Stevie Wonder was really good & "Something" was phenomenal. Dhani looks & sounds so much like his dad. Joe Walsh & Jeff Lynne were really good, too.
