I ordered Lowell Rat dog on Nov 10. I'm also buying New Rider tickets for the lebanon opera house for Nov 17 Friday. 30 min from K. Two great dancing and skiing weekends to get to going. Who wants to get out?

OMG....you're going to see Bobby???!!!???

You must be hard up for a show...

 

[maineskier69]

Thinking the plan may be to see Bobby in Lowell on Fri night, stay there, head to Manch Vegas Sat AM catch a flight to Baltimore to visit (overdue) grandparents (grandads 92 b-day). So if SR does in fact open 11-11, I may not be attending the festivities. Still sticking to my 11-18 opening day predicition.

To much tech for me. www.phillesh.net He has some sound boards up. MY wife not (no big surprise here.) me, did it for me. Did about 10 shows off that.

Anyone want to go to Wide spread Panic tomorrow in manchester NH. I have an extra ticket. Very cheap. Jimmy Herring is playing lead guitar. (For 5 years Phil's guitarist.) send me a pm. ckofer do you exist any more? I'll be at Fridays show in Bost if anyone wants to go of grab a pre show beverage. Working my way around this scene. Kind of a newbie here.

 

[BeanoNYC]

Check This Kid out!

Next, Billy? Mickey? Keith Moon? Steward Copeland?

Went to panic on Wed and Friday. Had a great time. I was tired on Sat so I skipped CT. Jimmy still smiles the entire time. Very small crowds. Nice to have all the space I needed. I think I'm out of the concert going gig until RatDog in November.

Saw Bobby at the old Westbury Music Fair. The venue is "in the round" but the show was not...they had a few sections behind the band blocked off. Sound was very good, a bit on the loud side. (and I'm always complaining places should turn it up!). Great venue. Intimate, good views everywhere. Our seats were good, maybe 8th row, to Mark Karan's side. (which wasn't great, was unable to see his or robin's finger work on their guitar/bass). Bobby sang every song, I think. Most of the time he was singing (as opposed to his screaming falsetto, which is tiring). He sounded good and looked good. I just wish he'd let Mark Karan go off a bit more; imho, he is very good and has a melodic sound as close as anyone'es to jerry's.

1st set was better than 2nd. Persuasions at the end was kind of silly, they didn't really know the words, and the guy couldn't read the prompter. Bobby also seemed to miss a verse or two. Decent show. I miss Jerry. Here's the set list.

I: Jam > Help on the Way > Slipknot! > Big River > Queen Jane Approximately > Brown-Eyed Women > Loose Lucy, She Says > Liberty* > Might as Well*
II: Blackbird@, Fever@, Masters of War@ > Jus' Like Mama Said > I Need a Miracle > The Other One > Stuff > Standing on the Moon > Two Djinn
E: Slipknot! > Franklin's Tower
