Last saw him in 2014 and then a handful of times before that. I was somewhat surprised that he was doing some singing as last time around they were just a trio compared to the 4-piece edition of the band with Davey Pattison.

Still incredibly smooth...and always satisfies! Not coming too close to me this time around.

Yeah I noticed it was a western US tour after I posted. I think I saw something about East Coast, to be announced.

Saw Trower on Bridge of Sighs tour back in the stoned age. Infrekincredible. Moonscape backdrop, the drums looked like a lunar lander, and Trower looked lkne an astronaut.

Maybe some East Coast love soon? Just picked up Bridge of Sighs last week.

He will come around, the man is on a roll.

So, had you heard Bridge of Sighs before? Wondering what it would sound like to new ears. btw, if you have good headphones, loud, the tracks Bridge of Sighs and In This Place will banish you to another galaxy.

I caught him last year in Montclair, NJ. Gorgeous show. That Roots And Branches disc is awesome. All covers and tho I am not a fan of those types of discs in general, His versions add something special, Some songs reworked in ways only he can do. Great disc. He sang a couple tunes, Good stuff. He hit up a lot of the old stuff too. I went up to the merch stand after the show and bought a few discs and inquired about signed posters, The Gent told me to just grab a $10 poster and wait 15 min's outside. His people had a line formed outside his van and he signed 2 items per, They requested no pic's as they had places down the road to get to so I just floated and jumped into the last spot and they took a pic of Robin and me for my scrapbook. Total talent/total class. A great show catch if you've never shared the room. That tone lives on.
