Hi David, Music is certainly the common denominator.I will definitely see The Musical Box again.There were certainly more Genesis numbers that I'd personally want to hear.I did get to shake keyboardist Ian Benhamous' hand and thank him for a spot on performance that evening. So far on my schedule, I have Billy Gibbons February 19th and Robin Trower March 4th at the Birchmere,Vanilla Fudge February 26th and The Yardbirds April 3rd at the Sellersville Theater in Pa.

@@VIBRATO1 There are definitely more than one concert's worth of Genesis numbers I'd like to hear. But since TMB recreates specific concerts, this one didn't include anything they did after the SEBTP tour. But there certainly wasn't anything I didn't want to hear! Still thinking about Robin Trower. Didn't know the Yardbirds were touring again- so far the one concert is the only one listed. I assume they will add a stop near here. A few others I'm considering, such as Kraftwerk, but haven't gotten any other tickets yet...

I have odd requests for Genesis numbers. I surely look forward to a return of The Musical Box. I'll definitely be back to see them. Yes,the Yardbirds are definitely touring again, with original drummer Jim McCarty discussing their 60 year legacy with historic videos and photographs of the storied band.

@@VIBRATO1 Lots of stuff for all tastes in the Genesis catalogue. I'll continue to see The Musical Box since Genesis is no longer available... Saw the Yardbirds earlier this year in Annapolis, and McCarty is still cooking- I think that was their best show in a long time. Another group I'll see whenever I get a chance.

Thanks,James.

Thank you Fernando and to all your bandmates for making my 3 1/2 hour trip from Norfolk so worthwhile.I hadn't seen Marshall Crenshaw perform since his 2007 appearance here in Norfolk. This old veteran also appreciates the shout out too. Speaking for this huge Ventures fan,you certainly put your Mosrite through its' paces.

@@VIBRATO1 BROTHER!!! Thank you so much man .. I saw your hat from the stage and I made it a point to shake your hand ... thank you for loving the music and protecting our freedom!

I followed Canned Heat even after I enlisted during the Vietnam War.Sure,Fito de la Parre is the only surviving member.I though that they sound just fine last week,especially Jimmy Vivino(from Conan OBrian band) on lead guitar and Dale Wesley Spalding on blues harp.

That they are,

First off,apologizes, for the video cut off at the end. My Samsung S22 overheated yet again and shut off. Thank you Norva,your friendly staff,and to "VetTix" for getting me into Christone 'Kingfish' Ingram and Warren Haynes this past week. Soulful music is still alive and well in downtown Norfolk. Two weeks ago,I drove 9+ hours down to Macon Ga. for keyboardist Tony Coopers' "CoopFest" benefit concert. While there,I made a pilgrimage to "Rosehill Cemetary", where ABB members' Duane and Gregg Allman,Berry Oakley and Butch Trucks are buried. Also on my bucket list was "The Big House" or Allman Brothers Museum and the new Capricorn Studios. I thoroughly enjoyed the Warren Haynes show,which featured a superb,musicians' lineup that was just so super tight and funky.

I can absolutely see why.

Didn’t they sing their old songs?

Just to let you know,that "illegally pirated" recording would've been by me, accomplished with a Panasonic portable recorder stuck down my pants. It most certainly wasn't off of a soundboard. In the mid 1970s,I started my side career,music reviewing for local magazines including "Tidewater After Dark", Portfolio Weekly, Jewish News and Natchel Blues Networks', "Blues News". I wish that I was reviewing when Gentle Giant made that appearance in Hampton,Va. I was a product of the Sixties and had my head and my ears completely turned around by their deeply,progressive music. That triple,eclectic musical lineup was among my first concerts, after my Vietnam era enlistment.

@@VIBRATO1 The brothers stuck together through a few albums but, as happens, fans are fickle and the required ability to fathom the complexity of that genre suffered with the dawn of Punk. 2 chords, blast beats and screaming was about to replace the likes of Yes, ELP and Gentle Giant on the charts. Still a pretty good recording. I wrote for The Daily Press and Regale Entertainment News.

Yes, GG tried to get a tad more commercial with the likes of "Giant for a Day", but to no avail. I have their complete set as well as Humble Pies' on 50 year old cassettes. As I have time, I'll get GGs' whole set out there on this channel.

@@VIBRATO1 I interviewed Humble Pie on their first swing through VA at the Dome in Va Beach. Steve Marriott invited me back to their hotel on the beach and all the guys were sleeping of the two beds in the room. Frampton seemed quite shy. Steve had been given an allowance and he bought an R&B cassette he wanted to play on a little boombox. Some years later I had dinner with he and Alexis Körner at the holiday Inn next to the Coliseum. Steve’s health was in decline. For dinner I remember he ordered a salad of nothing but lettuce which he never ate a bite of. He was one of my heroes at that time. My band opened our set with 4 Day Creep. Always loved the live album.

@dong4702 Yes,I was dripping sweat in there.But,yeah,TOP had me at "Squib Cakes".

Jeffrey,That was quite an eclectic lineup that evening at the Hampton Coliseum.I was already a Savoy Brown fan,so I knew I'd enjoy Foghat.That also was the only time I ever saw a version of Humble Pie.Clem Clempson was on lead guitar that evening.I met guitarist Rod Price from Foghat once,when he was performing one summer in downtown Hampton.But yeah,my brother and I dug Gentle Giant the most,especially as we'd gotten hooked on their "Three Friends" album.I hope to post more audio from that show..My brother Larry had his MGB ripped off from the Coliseum parking lot that night..

They surely bring the funk.

I did see my favorite picker Jeff Beck do it justice.

"Squib Cakes" did it for me.

You are on point regarding the new drummer. David G. is a legend. I really like Jordan the new singer, the two guys prior to Jordan did not fit my ear, and apparently , Mimi. Ray Greene has been a great Designated Singer. The rest of the guys are always tight. Go TP

Thank you for your helpful suggestion.When I use the SunPower app to simulate losing power,that is when the intermittent light flashing begins,alternating between my three ceiling fans.

Absolutely,Al. It was 20 years back that Curtis performed at Goodfellas in Hampton,Va. I was one of several volunteer writers for our Natchel Blues Network here in Southeastern, Va. I was so fortunate to have reviewed his show here and just gave him a printed copy 20 years later.

@@VIBRATO1 Thats great. I never have got the chance to see him. I have a few of his cd's.

@buggerlugs4653 There are a bunch of female guitarists playing the blues also..I interviewed and reviewed several including Ana Popovic and Deborah Coleman for our Natchel Blues Network Blues News paper.

@@VIBRATO1 they’re excellent aren’t they? I was a jobbing guitarist for most of my working life, yet my girlfriend (who was a much better guitarist than me) struggled to get her head above water, and when work did come her way the industry was more focused on how she looked. She now teaches advanced technique at a music college over here in England.
