My husband and I were very lucky to get added to the M&G list at the last minute due to a cancellation. This was our first time to meet Joe and it was such a thrill! He was warm and gracious. With everyone, he truly personalized the experience...not easy to do night after night with so many strangers, I'm sure. Wish the "official" photographer had snapped at least one more picture 'cause our one shot is extremely blurred...better luck next time, right?
This was our second concert of Joe's, having seen him in May in Springfield, MO. Last night's show was so varied! There was something there for anyone and everyone. Going into the night, I was most looking forward to hearing him wind it up in the middle of Dislocated Boy. So I was almost---almost!---disappointed. But the acoustic version with Tal on congas was truly unreal! I can't say how much I loved that song done that way! Loved the Chuck Berry tunes. Another highlight of the night for me was Mountain Time...I've heard that song a thousand times but last night's rendition was something special. My husband and I both felt that Joe's vocals were particularly spot on last night. Thanks so much, Joe, for another great show. Your concerts become wonderful memories for the fans that love you and your music.
