tunahead72 2,554 #2629 Posted April 15 Just heard these guys are heading east this summer, hoping to see them live. Ian Moore I'm very familiar with, plus two other Texas guitar slingers, Jesse Dayton and Johnny Moeller. They're opening for Samantha Fish, could be good...

Razorback 1,133 #2630 Posted April 16 We are in Baton Rouge for Resurrection Campmeeting at Family Worship Center. It starts this evening at 7PM. This is from this past Sunday evening's regular service. Another wonderful song. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tunahead72 2,554 #2636 Posted April 21 The audio and video are way out of sync in this, another cool tune from The Future Unwritten. I've cut the first 30 seconds or so 'cuz the ladies in my life would find it offensive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wallfish 18,242 #2638 Posted May 6 This came on at the end of a show the wife was watching tonight and we both started singing along. Not a big Kenny Loggins follower but this song still rings up memories and feelings from the past. Sorry for the mushy stuff, I'll post some metal stuff the next time!

Not modern "hard rock" but good old school stuff from the beginning. Does this count? Or this? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wallfish 18,242 #2643 Posted May 15 More of a blues vibe but I'd still consider Stevie Ray Vaughan more classic rock. He shows off a little bit on this one! Sorry, had a couple cocktails got sent off on a tangent! LOL 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HyperPete 873 #2644 Posted May 15 18 minutes ago, wallfish said: Maybe you missed this post. Not modern "hard rock" but good old school stuff from the beginning. Does this count? Or this? Yep, it counts. Ten Years After was Alvin Lee on guitar, wasn't it? Nugent was a hard rocker, but I am not a fan of his politics. I grew up on 60s and 70s rock. I just also enjoy a lot of newer bands, too. Alice Cooper is playing there. I saw him around 1985 or so. Rob Zombie is replacing Alice in Chains (who were replacing Mötley Crüe) and has been around a long time too, although his first (popular) band was WHITE Zombie. I hope to see him, but the crowds can get pretty crazy at shpws like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure I have seen just about everything. There is also a decent bio on Netflix directed by his older son, Ahmet. I'm a bit of a Zappa fanatic. I have also seen Dweezil 4 times so far, including his first US show as "Zappa plays Zappa" with special guests Napoleon Murphy Brock, Steve Vai, and Terry Bozio. Of COURSE they played The Black Page, which was outstanding. Although Dweezil was not as good then as he is now, it was an AMAZING show! If only Ruth Underwood had been there too, I would have been in heaven. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
