FYI Blue Note in Honolulu is a great venue, too. Saw Sergio Mendes there a few years ago and every seat had an excellent view, it was a very fun show! Headed to Tokyo next week and will check out the Blue Note there, too, along with some of the other jazz clubs.
ZZ TOP. .38 Special
That is my theme this year. Already seen John Waite 74, Going to see Air Supply end of the month they are mid 70s. Sammy Hagar 78 with Rick Springfield 75ish, and later in fall, Lou Graham 74 with John Waite yet again. I not saying back nine, Im saying the final 3 holes, ha.
tokyo should be fun. i am jelaous!
Ooooh, thank you very much, we will seek some of those Jazz kissas out! We are going to Blue Note Place in Ebisu (different from Blue Note Tokyo) on Thursday, then in a week or so we will go see a Japanese big band at the actual Blue Note Tokyo. It’s supposed to also be a comedy act but I imagine we will miss the jokes since we don’t speak much Japanese. We are having a great time so far despite not speaking the language very well. Our attempts always get a positive reaction even if they switch to English right after!
Clap For the Wolfman! That should be a good one! My lady had zero interest in Guess Who a smidge before her time, so I will have to miss that tour.
Should be great.
Who is performing as YES in concert? I have seen Jon Anderson with a new band performing YES music but it was not advertised as YES.
I was going to comment on this earlier as well. I started listening to Yes way back in high school around 1976/77 and consider them one of my favorite bands of all time. I saw them a few times in concert and they were fantastic. Now however, it is just not the same. I would rather see Jon Anderson and the band Geeks doing the Yes material any day. Steve Howe is the only long-time member remaining and must have rights to the band name. They are still a very good band, but I am nostalgic for some of the classic line ups. Have trouble even considering them as Yes without Anderson, Rick Wakeman, Chris Squire and Alan Whites or Bill Bruford.
Seeing a concert at the Sphere is on my bucket list. I’m not a big Las Vegas fan, but I would love to see one of the classic rock bands like the Eagles play at the Sphere. My grown daughter and some friends went there last month to see the Back Street Boys (their favorite band growing up) and were blown away!
You don't have to be a Vegas fan. Fly in, stay at the Venetian/Palazzo, walk (inside) to the Sphere), walk back, leave the next day. 1 or 2 nights. Don't gamble. They probably have 20 restaurants at that hotel so you don't even have to leave!
