11 days till #Shakti for me.
Let's keep the reviews coming !!
I get a Bela Fleck opener.
Has the opener been joining the band for a few songs?
Will my wife like it?
I think she will, to be honest the mistakes I have made in terms of couples music shows have been my own. Sleep? What was I thinking.
Too many D&C shows.. probably overdid it by 10 shows or so.
But virtuosity and international influences, should be a good thing,
Will she be like..
"OMG I got to see guitar icon John McLaughlin ?
Of course not"
But I expect it will be a good time for both of us.
@tor_haxson there were lots of families in the house and I felt like the crowd was richly mixed... Enough spouses in the house... I think the joy these players radiate and the music itself, is infectious. Count on her coming away happy
Rockin Good News,
Maybe I can build up a string of spouse friendly shows before I cross the line and drop some Noise Jazz, or Stoner Metal on her.
@tor_haxson since you're asking, Sco didn't join Shakti for any songs but the audience was respectful and reverent during his 45min+ unaccompanied guitar set. It was warm and wonderful. (He played NFA by the way - for the heads)
While I think it would be more likely that Béla joins Shakti for something, I wouldn't anticipate that happening. It would almost be weird to have a featured player throw that unit off, no matter how cool the idea seems on paper
45 minutes of solo Sco would be wonderful enough.
@tor_haxson Too many D&C? No way!
@tor_haxson awesome!
I bought the whole tour on nugs and I’m through 1st night at Fenway.
Yeah this last year they were on fire for sure.
