My Gregg Allman fantasy – rated R for rock
They say you never really miss something until it’s gone and when it comes to the Allman Brothers Band, I guess I’m just going to have agree with that sentiment.

When music makes one a little sad – The Cohoes Music Hall
Saturday night, a friend and I drove up 787 to check out a guitar player he admires.

Stevie Ray Vaughan opened up and absolutely ruined Plant for me. Stevie was just that good. Since that time, I'm … Continue reading Robert Plant and the Sensational Space Shifters
Can I have your number?
I went to NYC yesterday evening to see Robert Plant and his band the Sensational Shape Shifters. It's been a hectic week and it was so nice to cut loose a little and slow down for the night. Incidentally, what does it mean, when my life is so busy, that I go to the city … Continue reading Can I have your number?
