Although not actually there, just watched Pink Floyd's Pulse (again). What an amazing concert on DVD. Technically, the lighting and sound are, well, brilliant. Really an extraordinary performance.

heaven and hell tomorrow night.

I saw Eric Johnson two weeks ago and he was amazing as usual. My only complaint was that he didn't play Cliffs of Dover.

With the release of all the old Beatles albums I got to see Rubber Soul a tribute band here and they actually did some three part harmony singing. It was pretty good.

I keep hoping it will be released in Blu-Ray but so far I haven't seen it anywhere.

Jay-Z / Coldplay last night at Wembley. Jay-Z was great, just a professional entertainer at the top of his game. Love the mix between the DJ and a full band. I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to see him live. A little taste of his opening here.

We are not big Coldplay fans (we actually left about half way through their set) but it was cool to see them in front of their home town fans.

My wife is a big Diana Krall fan and we have wanted to see a show at the Royal Albert Hall for a while, so it was a perfect match last night. She sounded great and I really enjoyed the show. If her albums sounded as jazzy as her live performance I would listen to her stuff a lot more.

GlennK, out of curiosity, how long did her concert last?

About an hour and half I think.

I saw David Gray last night at the Auditorium Theater in Chicago. I'm not a huge fan, but I thought he was very good. My big problem was that the crowd was way too mellow. I realize his music can be on the quieter side, but the crowd just sat in their seats the whole time - not my style.

Dylan- Auditorium Chicago
Lucinda Willims - Park West
Rodrigo Y Gabriello - The Riv
Yo La Tengo - The Vic
Wilco - UIC

upcoming
Meat Puppets - Schubas
Asylum Street Spankers - Bottom Lounge

That's good.
I'm not a musician, and I don't know how physically taxing a live concert is, but for the price of concerts these days, I'd like for it last longer than an average CD.
I love her to death & own all her albums, but I think the two I attended at Ch. Ste. Michelle lasted barely an hour before they left the stage. No encore, despite thunderous applause...

Otello, last Sunday.

I caught U2 about three weeks ago at Reliant Stadium in Houston. An absolutely fantastic show!

Next week I get to see Springsteen again (3rd time) in Cleveland.

Method Man and Redman, with Snoop. Tonight in a medium sized local club.

I most certainly did not. There were plenty of hot 20 somethings in attendance who undoubtedly would have helped him with that "snizzling his nizzle" you speak of.

Going to see Lang Lang Saturday evening and Huey Lewis on Tuesday. Eclectic, but fun!

Old Crow Medicine Show last night at the State Theatre. A terrific show.

Last night - The Boss. Played all of the "Born to run" CD.

PS - New lesson - if you baby sitter has a curfew - you have a curfew.

The Pixies last week. Played "Doolittle" from front to back. I've seen them about half a dozen times over the years and this was their best performance yet. Top 10 concert in my book.

That is a tough one to learn the hard way on a night you've gone to see The Boss.

Did he greet you with a hearty, "Hello, Ohio!"?

Nope - we got a "good evening Nashville" a little over an hour after he was supposed to go on... But he did play until midnight.
