davidbeinct Posted May 16, 2016 Author Share Posted May 16, 2016 ^^^ Looked around to see if Gregory Porter is making any east coast stops. Due to the nature of connectivity online, wound up clicking from link to link and finding out Richard Thompson is playing 15 minutes from my house at the Katherine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center in Old Saybrook, CT (aka "The Kate") on June 1st. An Evening With Richard Thompson in CT Wednesday, June 1, 2016 - 7:30 pm My wife and I are going and the best I could do was two seats one directly behind the other. There were like three more single seats available after I bought those two. This is a 250 seat theater with excellent acoustics. Can't wait! Link to comment

Superdad Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Equally over-priced Peter Gabriel & Sting together near Philly. Taking my wife to see that show--but in Lake Tahoe--in July for our 28th anniversary. Ninth row, center seats. Bought from one of those official rip-off resellers after the show was sold out. (Don't even ask. Could by a Yggy DAC and a really nice dinner out with what this is running. But she will be happy...) UpTone Audio LLC Link to comment
TubeLover Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Wilco with Richard Thompson as opener June 4 in Philly. Equally over-priced Peter Gabriel & Sting together near Philly. Really was interested in seeing the Gabriel & Sting concert here in Detroit, but just had to draw the line on that pricing. Including dinner out, two tickets and parking, that was easily going to be a $600.00+ night, and as much as I love music, especially live, I just cannot go there. JC Link to comment
TubeLover Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I do envy all of you who are going to see Richard Thompson. That should be a spectacular concert, as always. I am a huge fan of this brilliant guitar player, songwriter and gifted showman, especially live. Sadly, he is not appearing anywhere in my part of the country on this tour. JC Link to comment

JC With Wilco he is doing the open as a solo act, so probably plenty of acoustic stuff as well as electric. Should be great!

Cycleman Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Tomorrow night, Friday May 20th, going to hear and see Amy Helm, Levon's daughter, at the Towne Crier club in Beacon NY. When we saw her with Ollabelle, a few years ago, we spent about a half-hour after the concert talking with her, and she's not just an excellent musician, but a really good person too.

wgscott Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 The Whom (as I think they should have called themselves) turned out to be much better than I thought it would be. Unfortunately, I forgot my ear-plugs, and it was way too loud, and the opening band was quite awful. But for two 70+ year olds, they put on a good show, with a lot more energy than I could have hoped for. The Who delivers the hits, if not the fury, at Oakland show - SFGate Link to comment

John H Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Robbie Fulks at the White Eagle Saloon - Portland Oregon - This June Just a quick note about this show, WOW. A great musician-song writer and story teller, personable entertainer backed by all star musicians. Sound was top notch, and the venue very intimate. Highly recommended! iMac > NAD C388 Integrated with BluOS module > Linn Keilidh Link to comment
John H Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Gregory Porter at Revolution Hall - Portland Oregon - this June Another concert that wowed me. What a performance, it's been four days since the show, and I can't get it out of my head or heart.

Adams and Carlile are terrific, but I think the performance you are going to be blown away by is Alabama Shakes. Brittany Howard has an amazing presence and passion. Have fun! --Alex C.

Superdad Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Peter Gabriel & Sting performing together tonight across the river from Philadelphia Yes, my wife and I will be catching them at Lake Tahoe here in California the middle of July. Great seats, but for what we paid I could put together an entire very musical entry-level high-end hi-fi system for someone. But it's our 28th anniversary and we rarely get away… My wife's a big PG fan (me too), but she thinks he looks like Uncle Fester these days. UpTone Audio LLC Link to comment
Jud Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Peter Gabriel & Sting performing together tonight across the river from Philadelphia Saw them both, along with Springsteen, Tracy Chapman and Youssou N'Dour a long time ago. Great show. One never knows, do one? - Fats Waller The fairest thing we can experience is the mysterious.
