Beacon Theatre

Did anybody else hear Derek or Warren’s guitar and Oteil’s bass during the drum solo on Liz Reed? I didn’t not see either Derek, Warren, or Oteil on Stage but I could hear some guitar. My ears may have been playing a trick but I am almost positive that I heard some guitar playing.

I thought this was a great show, too. It was the only one on the Beacon run that I was able to attend (I did catch Oteil and the Peacemakers at B.B.’s). A couple of folks in the Hotel Beacon lobby said that this one was “dissapointing” compared to the others. Well the others must’ve just been incredible!

One of the things that I found so amazing about this show was that the audience sang along (beautifully!) on most every song. I go back to the very early 70’s with the ABB, and I don’t ever remember seeing/hearing anything like this. Maybe this is just a “Beacon thing”, but anybody who thinks the ABB is passe only needed to be at the Beacon for this show.

Covers of Otis Redding and Sam Cooke numbers just sent chills up my spine! I am looking forward to catching the band later on in Atlanta, Birmingham or any other city that I can make it to.

I went to Sat. nights show and the place was jumping.
The band sounded great as usual. Along with a great choice of songs.
And the horns really added to the show too.
A real great evening.
Going again next week.
