docc Posted September 23 Posted September 23 I so love Susan Tedeschi. Don't tell Derek Trucks. Or my wife. Great web find: Susan in 2001. No wonder Derek said, "Gotta marry that girl" . . . 4
Kevin_T Posted September 23 Posted September 23 Coming home from the Spine Raid XXI I like to think of the wife and Susan calling me home. It makes the last 500 miles of the trip easier. 3
docc Posted October 6 Posted October 6 Pretty excited to listen to/ watch some new video of Anika Nilles playing with RUSH . . . 1
LowRyter Posted October 6 Posted October 6 (edited) ^^ What little I've seen of her vids, she's a good one to play Neil. I think she's got a little more funk but can do all the doo dahs. Not a huge Rush fan, but saw them on one of their last tours. Edited October 6 by LowRyter 1
docc Posted October 23 Posted October 23 I always try to post quality audio, live performances because I love see what the musicians are actually doing. Struggling to find this Paul McCartney song live, I learned that probably isn't gonna happen since, apparently, the fine man played all the instruments himself . . . 2
billgreenman1 Posted October 25 Posted October 25 Just got back from seeing the Squirrel Nut Zippers live! Only Jimbo Mathus from the original lineup, but with Dr. Sick from New Orleans and the rest of a talented crew it was a lively event! 2

Struggling to find this Paul McCartney song live, I learned that probably isn't gonna happen since, apparently, the fine man played all the instruments himself . . . I got to see McCartney live a few years ago. His voice is shot, but he works around that and truly, nobody even cares because well it's McCartney. I'll wager his upcoming tour features this, since there are minimal vocals and he can play lead while the band plays the back. Funny how I can pick out McCartney's guitar style from the crowd- he has a signature cadence and rhythm in his lead guitar and piano that's easy for me to hear. I can hear in this piece John and George's styles incorporated as well. Very interesting and pleasant song. Side story- I don't know if he does it at every concert, but a family brought their 16 year old daughter to the concert for her birthday, well because Paul McCartney. They had a small sign, and Paul saw it; when they went for 'the birthday song' he had security bring her onstage and sang it to her personally, much to everyone's delight. She was so stunned. Then they happened to walk in front of us exiting the parking, and we stood up (convertible) and pointed her out "Hey, it's birthday girl!" to which everyone applauded, shouted happy birthday and honked. I can only wish my grandkids ever get that sort of memory. 2

I noticed that in a concert that was shown on TV some years ago. Ringo was also there. Might have been this, I think I spoke to someone about it afterwards, and the other person was quick to criticise that McCartney "couldn't sing at all anymore, so why does he keep trying". I heard it different: the man is well over 70, I think even over 80 at the time of the concert. He knows full well what he can't sing anymore, and what he still can, and sings accordingly. Professional in the extreme, I reckon. And yeah, well, he's McCartney. 3

At my concert he played the Hoffner and another or others. 2
