She rocked the joint! I had to look around to make sure we were still in the Swyer Theater. Felt like something way more funky.

Maybe the classical critic isn't the best person to review a jazz concert.

I agree with your assessment David. What a great show. As you probably know by now, Leo spells his last name Kottke...

Hi Brian. What you didn't say is that everyone should have been issued hearing protection upon entering the theater. It was ridiculously loud. If there was any subtlety, it wasn't heard. Also, the only singer I could hear above the blasting was Noah Hunt. I thought he was good. I agree with your assessment of Eric Johnson. I also liked Mato Nanji. I thought Kenny Wayne Shepard was mostly tedious. My friend and I left early when we got tired of holding our fingers to our ears. What a disappointment.

You were too generous to Kim Simmonds. He played like an amateur and not a good one.

Hi. For what it's worth, I believe the Gibson ES-125TC is a fully hollow body guitar unless George Thorogood has them modified. Also, I thought Tom Hambridge's songs were pretty interesting on the whole.
