Regarding Midnight Rambler having worn out or tarnished without Charlie’s drumming, the subtle nuances he delivered etc. — that doesn’t bother me, this more than casual but less than hardcore fan, that much TBHWY. My first show sans Charlie, Hyde Park 2022 #1, was one of the greatest RS shows I had ever attended. Steve’s ‘power drumming’ certainly worked under those circumstances.

Quotesyrel But I agree - the setlist just took a notable turn for the worse. (Don't want to start an argument/spoil anyone's fun, but I lost a lot of enthusiasm I had for the tour with that rehearsal list.) Yeah, me too. The HD songs are not enough to save the day — even if they were more than four on offer. As for warhorses, I’d take MR over MY, YCAGWYW and Satisfaction any day.

So you are already there. Passion and enthusiasm…indeed. YCAGWYW rehearsed, after all. Hopefully the new setlist won’t be another warhorsefest (I’m not holding my breath, though).

One thing I noticed is none of the reports of the rehearsed songs so far have listed YCAGWYW. Taken over by SSOH perhaps? Good sign if true. Still too many usual suspects. I wish they nixed MY as well.

Regardless, I enjoyed both when they played them on stage, and hope they will revive them on the future performances. And Mixed Emotions, Rough J

It doesn’t work, the opener should be fast tempo and go with a bang, you may say? Basically yes — however, as an attempt to deviate from the norm, it might be interesting to see the band gradually building up the heat and t

Another supergroup that failed to fulfill the promised potential. However, their one-off album has stood the test of time despite the largely disappointing voices that greeted it when it was released. Eric’s initial intention of forming Blind Faith was the English version of The Band, so to speak, with emphasis on the organic music rather than the fierce interplay between virtuoso players a la

Been to and back from the aforementioned Wilco gig. They were ASTONISHING. They smashed it and tore the house down. So brilliant. Absolutely. I saw them once long time ago, in 2010, but had somehow forgotten what an incredible band they were. Nels Cline is an underrated axeman who deserves more credit to him. So original. He turned the guitar into a magic wand.
