There have been many music threads but I don’t see one regarding halls, venues, bars, or back porches. I’ve been to some memorable performances for all kinds of music and I got to thinking about the diversity of the places that they happened.
Anyone have any live performance stories to tell? Two that stick in my mind but are completely different come to mind.
Weill Recital Hall is the most recent venue we went to. It’s a beautiful, intimate hall perfect for small classical ensembles. The fact that DD was one of the performers may have something to do with ranking it so highly but the acoustics were amazing.
Years ago we got to see a fabulous show in a local bar that held maybe a couple hundred of the most boisterous partiers of just about any show I’ve attended. The musicians (Strength in Numbers) said at the time that between Edgar Meyer sitting in and the energy of the crowd it was the most ‘fun’ they had had playing in a long time. Sadly, the Muehlebacher changed hands and the music scene moved on from them.
Redrocks, Wolf Trap, and some hole in the wall I haven’t discovered yet are on my bucket list. Anyone care to recommend their favorite venue or share concert stories?
