Concerts thread: Best/Worst/Next/Last one you attended?

James McMurtry (with a band) at a venue that held about 200. Great show, good mix of songs with a couple of solo acoustic efforts mixed in. Lyrics are just amazing.

$25 and I’d have paid triple.

 

Should I plan on seeing the Eagles on the farewell tour? One band I've always wanted to see. Having Fagen open for them and having Vince Gill sitting in seems like a bonus. I know there will be no dancers or fireworks, they pretty much just play and cash the checks - but still. Looking at $175.
Oddly enough - there seem to be plenty of tickets available for an Oct. 10 show in Indy at the Fieldhouse - surprising this close in.

 

I saw them in the company box here in Toronto last September. Had never seen them before - saw Don Henley on the Building the Perfect Beast tour a million years ago - and you're right, no frills, no pyro, but it was a very good show. We got Vince Gill and for a couple songs, Deacon Frey.

 

Bonnie Raitt on Monday night in Calgary.
Have seen her 3 times and she is as good as it gets.

 

I really need to see Bonnie. Always loved her and never pulled the trigger for seeing her live.

I feel like "Love Me Like a Man" might the best the sexiest song ever.

 

Bonnie is essential, totally underrated is her cover of Randy Newman’s “Guilty”(I’ve Been Drinking).
Who hasn’t?

 

Bonnie Raitt is playing nearby in October. Second-row mezzanine seats are $600-plus. Far-back balcony seats are $250.

We’re working a high school band marching contest that night, so ticket prices are a moo point anyway.

 

If you want to see an artist with all of Raitt's talent at a fraction of the price, check out Ruthie Foster. Here's a video of them together. Foster's website says she's touring.

 

I will check her out, but no way does she have all of Bonnie Raitt’s talent.

 

We saw Ruthie Foster a few months back. Had great seats on the second row. Her show was all kinds of awesome.

 

Back in the USA for a few weeks. Saw Isbell at the Ryman last night. Expectations were high. The 400 Unit exceeded them.

 

Saw them this summer.

I can’t believe how tight that band is.

I think Will Johnson is a permanent member now, which is great for extended guitar duels and solos.

Who was on bass? Jimbo Hart has been gone for quite a while now, and I haven’t heard anything about a return.
