Man I was in in Denver for work a few years back when they were on their reunion tour and got to see them at Red Rocks, probably the best show I have ever seen (the venue definitely helped), seen them at the Horseshoe Casino a year later and they were TERRIBLE and then saw them a year later at Aragon and they were on again. It's almost as if they are hit or miss depending on if they really care or not.

 

This is my favorite of their "new" songs since they have reformed. Best song of the night at Red Rocks and ironically it was the first tune they played, it really set the tone for that gig

 

 

How can ANY band sound good at the Aragon? That place has the worst acoustics I have ever heard at a live venue... Why do bands even play there?

Here's one for ya! How about a tour with S.R.V. and Hendrix playing together? Styles and personal music choices may clash, but some pretty serious guitar playing would be brought to the audience.

There may be some faster guitar players, but nobody can make a guitar "speak" to you in so many different ways and so many different levels than SRV, Hendrix and Jeff Beck.

 

I could see it happening. Stevie was heavily influenced by Hendrix early in his musical career. While gigging with a few bands who liked playing covers of the Beatles and such, SRV was more lenient towards the more complicated material such as Hendrix, Freddie King and Lonnie Mack. In my humble opinion, Stevie managed to play well above his influences and his early departure has not revealed anyone close to matching such intensity and love for the music as he had.

Just because a venue is bad doesn't mean that every show played there is bad?

 

This guy doesn't think so either

I know, and despite MTV's cutaway for precious VJ Prattle and the limited number of songs performed, it was nice.

 

Sounds like gilmour might actually join Roger on a couple of US The Wall tour dates.
