Got tickets to see Steve Vai 8/17 at House of Blues.  $28 (plus $10 *service charge*).   It's going to be awesome.  I've never seen a Vai show before, although I did attend his "Alien Guitar Secrets" masterclass a few years ago.  He's one of my favorite players.

July 3rd - Joe Walsh - Milwaukee Summerfest

I've been listening to a TON of Joe Walsh lately.  His new album is fantastic.

See you in Manchester and London, Ian.

Re: My Next Concert (s)

Thinking about a last minute jount to London on Thursday - missing Kenny Wayne Shepherd unfortunately.  A mate is heading along to a Gabrielle Aplin gig at Dingwalls so will give it a look - acoustic folk/pop i'd say but she sounds good.

Got an eye on Mick Taylor / Matt Schofield on friday though if there are tickets available.

Re: My Next Concert (s)

Jim Suhler and Monkey Beat tonight in Oxford (along with Icon) and then Gov't Mule on Wednesday in Chelsea - not a bad week really (apart from tomorrow's root canal treatment that is sad  )

Re: My Next Concert (s)

Ian Siegal & Mississippi Mudbloods on Thursday, Newcastle
Jim Suhler & Monkey Beat on Friday, Penrith (no "spoilers" please Curryman & Icon..)
Larry Miller on Saturday, Sedgefield

Burton Cummings on what's billed as the "Your Backyard Tour".  July 7, 2012, Lake Superior Big Top Chautauqua | Washburn, WI

Definitely not my backyard, though.  Still, I'm headed up to do some fishing at a friend's cabin on Moose Lake in upper Wisconsin (about 9 hours north of my locale).  So the extra 4 hour round trip (approximately) from there is doable.  If I wasn't heading out Tuesday, I could've caught him closer, in Arlington Heights, IL--and that for FREE.

Been a while since I've seen Burton, so looking forward to it.

Play like you've worked at it, and don't worry about sounding like your influences.  You can't cheat on them, or your practice, anyway.  If you've worked hard at your skill, your audience will know it.

Would love to see a reunion of as many original Guess Who members one of these days. They were a big favorite of mine and a special g-friend in high school.

Re: My Next Concert (s)

Zappa Plays Zappa, 7/15, in Merrillville, IN.  If recent setlists are any indication, this is going to be nearly as good as seeing his Dad was, back in the day.  I'm hoping some of the recently mentioned covers of other bands show up, too.

Enjoy! They are on my must see list whenver theyre around. Seeing the Grandmothers in August, but Im not optimistic that they will capture Frank as well as ZPZ.
