The power of Bruce Springsteen was evident last night at the Nassau Coliseum.I attend the show with Old Rocker. He brought his 14 year old son and I brought my 12 year old son. This was the first Bruce show for both boys. Old Rocker son is becoming quit good on guitar and in to a lot of heavy and guitar orientated music. My son is all about Metallica and AC/DC at the moment. A show that went 2...

Last year I set a personal record of 71 shows. I never thought I would beat it. Well now I am here to write my yearly review and am proud to say 120 shows this year. Sit back and feel free to comment. Here we go. 1) Jan 3rd 2008 BB Kings: Robert Gordon with Chris Spedding the Juke Horns and the JordanairesI had seen Robert a couple of years ago and while he was good, I was not keen on the song ...

50) July 13th 2008 Irving Plaza: The English Beat, The Alarm and The Fixx.Everybody here knows that The Alarm is my band. I have seen these guys more times than anybody. I saw the original band 13 times and will always support Mike Peters. He is just one of the nicest guys you could meet. Why they keep going on before The Fixx is beyond me. The Alarm had less time being first, but they made the be

90) Sept 28th 2008 BB Kings: Ben E King, Darlene Love, Gary US Bonds, Charlie Thomas.This was Ben's 70th birthday party and what a party was had. Gary US Bonds started the night with a short but rocking set. No This Little Girl, but a Quarter to Three and School Is Out made up for it. Darlene Love gave us all of her hits and showed us why she was on Broadway for three years in Hairspray. She c...

What a year it has been. Here is what I have seen and what I have thought.1) JAN 15TH 2007 BB Kings: Little Richard.I had not seen Little Richard for quite sometime. I was shocked to see that he walks with two canes to get around now. Once he sits at the piano you would not know it. The show went an hour and 20 mins. Not bad for a man his age. The first hour was great and it should have ended ther

I think the tour will happen and Michael will be on bass.I am willing to bet on one of two things. Live Nation offered less money because it was not the original band and Eddie is ticked. Eddie has never come out and said what the problem is with Mike. He now claims he will not work with him because he tours with Sammy, "the enemy" as Ed has called him, as the Other Ones.Someone should tell Ed ...

As 2006 draws to a close and last night I saw my last show of the year, I thought now would be good to review the year 2006 was.1) 1/7/06 Anthrax at the Nokia Theater: The return of the true Anthrax. With Dan and Joey back in the band they were better than ever. I had seen the John Bush Anthrax and it was good, but it can not compare to the original. Can not wait for new music by this line up.2) 1

Last week Old Rocker and I went and saw Ritchie Havens and were blown away. Old Rocker went in not to thrill. Aztec Two Step and Steve Forbet were not that good. Ritchie came on and you can tell that even in his 60's he still has the fire and it is burning.Mike Peters of the Alarm is anoher artist that still gets it. Old Rocker and I saw his only US show this summer (he did come back in the fal...
