Stamford CT Nov 12th (Page 1 of 2)

Tried that last night (not) - but I did see it happen once and Joe actually cracked up and had to stop - too funny.  I'd also like to hear someone yell "Play it again" when he's done.

Have fun Bill - you will be blown away tonite!

Sandy

Great show - totally rocked!  Can't wait for Westbury...

Ben

One of them taciturn Nor'easterners.  I think it's a regional handicap. 
Rick

Yep, that San Diego friendliness is contagious. We even say hi to the next door neighbors, (except for the !@#$%^ to the west!)

Hey Ben - sorry I didn't get to meet you! I got to meet Gloria at the show, she was very nice.

The show was outstanding. I say this over and over, but every time I see Joe he gets better and better. The back lights added a nice look to the stage presence, they really looked good during Just Got Paid when the JB logo was shown the background. Joe started the show off with Cradle Rock, it was my first time seeing it live. What an intro, he did a nice little jam into the song. Joe then finally got to Slow Train, which is my new favorite song. The cool part about this song is the opening, its like the opening of Just Got Paid. He gets the crowd going and rips right into the song. This song though has the most insane soloing I've ever seen from Joe. He plays so frickin' fast it is unbelievable. Another highlight for me was Never Make Your Move Too Soon... that's another tune that I've never seen live before and it's from the so called vault.

I also was lucky enough to hang out with Joe before and after the show. Joe was more than nice to the fans and the meet n greet was great. I got to meet some really cool folks - don't know they're on the forum yet though. I was also able to chat with Roy, what a great manager. Was nice speaking again with you! Rick you too are great, was fun speaking to you. Thanks for standing up to those security guards! Thanks again Joe, it was a blast.

Bill

PS - The venue security was a bit overbearing, they kept busting people for taking pics / video - they didn't understand that it was allowed. I was able to get a video of Just Got Paid using my iPod and put it up on youtube here:

The show is up on dime, thanks to joebeacon and the quality kicks @$$! 

How long has it been since you've seen JB Roy?

I will be seeing him in March too. 

Bill

On March 8th Bill, it will be two years; that's what I call a serious Joe-drought! I'm well beyond withdrawal now after being admitted to the hospital several times with what my dosctors referred to as (JDS) Joe-Deficiency Syndrome and Bonalackitis. However, with the proper medicine and oitments, I seem to have made a full recovery.

That was a heck of a day back on March 8th, 2009 with Joe first putting on an excellent guitar clinic around noon... http://www.flickr.com/photos/8384830@N0 … 055923441/

And then a full show at Turner Hall at night... http://www.flickr.com/photos/8384830@N0 … 141468078/

Really looking forward to the Pabst Theater show in Milwaukee on March 12th. I think that's going to be a very classy place to see Joe. Actually, it's not all that far from his old stomping grounds at Shank Hall. I'm sure I'll make both that one and the Green Bay show the night before.

Roy

P.S. I stand corrected. There was one other show after the March 2009 show in Milwaukee. It was the RAH show in London! How could I ever forget that one!! Maybe old age is creeping in?

Thanks Rocket! I was about to start getting the shakes again until I realized I forgot to include the RAH show! I better get some more medicine before March, just in case.
