Different 2015 Tour- Summer (Page 1 of 2)

Hmm, I am very intrigued.

sounds like a Blues tribute tour with horns and play

Albert, B.B. and Freddie King

That's what I was wondering. Since they supposedly invited him back to play there again. This sounds like a really cool tour.

Thanks Lee. Honestly, the question of whether he would ever play another show or series of shows like the Muddy Wolf shows in Colorado and Wyoming had been on my mind ever since Red Rocks ended. I LOVE Joe playing the blues! I think he is the best blues guitarist of all time and when people see him play an entire concert of blues classics they will see for themselves.  That show in Beaver Creek will stay w/ me forever. I could easily have sat thru the same show again and again it was so good. Obviously others thought so too. It is a marketable idea and I am glad he and his management are running with it. I suspect his popularity will go up exponentially as it did after RAH when many fans get to see the Red Rocks show on PBS.

Somewhere after Red Rocks ended there was a poll (from the email on The Pickup maybe...I don't honestly remember) from Kevin Shirley asking fans who they'd like to see Joe do a similar show on. (I said the 3 Kings and SRV..but would have thrown Luther Allison in there too if I was thinking) That poll got me wondering whether it was being seriously considered or just a throw away question to his fans. When I saw Joe was taking an hour of questions on Twitter yesterday I decided to ask. His answer shocked me and made me incredibly happy at the same time! When I looked at his response saying it would be a TOUR (not a show or series of shows) I got to wondering how many and where. I'm all in! Please just let it be in the US and let me get tickets!

.

I'm glad he can't! It lets me get excited and start saving for it. Jim, can you at least tell me if it will be in the US?

That band was soooo good and Joe was so fired up for it, it would be a shame if he didn't take it on the road. Joe's playing adds a LOT to the catalogs of the legends. His interpretations are wonderful and his energy and that of his band was enormously powerful. You could see, especially at a small venue like Beaver Creek, what a blast they were having. At Red Rocks, you could see what a blast 9,500 people were having!

i was gonna post exactly this, Joe show do a BB Albert & Freddie show and would be the only way to top MuddyWolf, and he already had it lined up lol

I think we may see Joe cry on them shows, they are truly 3 of his own music idols and it will be the greatest honour for him and fun choosing their best songs, that will be hugely emotional for Joe

But im predicting these will be Joe's Greatest Performances Ever, he wouldnt do it unless it was 300%, they will draw large Audiences, be great if he plays the grand old historic theatres across USA that these legends graced

Sure he had the best fun with the MuddyWolf band, and wants to top it, this is basically the ony way in tribute to 3 Legends and 3 Kings of Blues

This will be one of Joe Career Highlights for sure

im sure Reese will be there plus the same band from Red Rocks

That's fine. Good things are worth waiting for. I just don't want to be asleep at the switch when he announces it!

i hope joe slips in one of those MuddyWolf tunes, OMFG

maybe we need a fan poll
