Joe Bonamassa - Koninklijk Circus Brussels 1/03/2014

Here's my review of this gig. It was my 1st time at one of his concerts. I hope Joe will read this.

When i arrived it was crowded. Of course because the show was sold out. I went straight to the merchandising and bought myself a cd (Joe's CD's are very hard to find in music stores in Belgium) and a box of mediators. Maybe he put a little bit of his magic in them....I could use a little help to learn guitar faster The shopping finished i went to my seat. It was 19.45 so 15 minutes before the gig. The show started right on time: 20.00 sharp . It was a surprise 'cos' in Belgium, shows always start with at least a 30 minutes delay.
the gig started and the magic started too...Joe in a circle of accoustic guitars for the 1st part of the show and them, joe in a suit  changing electric guitar evry song. from the beginning 'til the end i had stars in my eyes. How can someone play like this...Geee. between the amazing guitar solos and the beautiful lyrics of some of his songs just like sloe gin...You were carried away by the show. I liked his generosity in the way he treated his musicians giving them space to express themselves with their instruments. The solo drums - percussions and the keyboard solo were also amazing.
It's probably the best gig i've seen in a long time.

I came back home with stars in my eyes, stars that i still had when i fell into morpheus' arms...

I've been able to take a lot of pics and videos (repsecting the pics policy: it was taken with a phone so no lights...and no disturbances for anybody...). So i have souvenirs.

I wasn't able to meet him but i hope i'll have a chance one of these days. 'cos something is certain. I will go back to one of his gig.

I must admit though that since i've seen him on stage i don't know wether i must go on with the guitar lessons or drop it right away! :emb
