Bound In Blood

I drove up to Villa Montalvo and it was dark! I was told the power was out and we would wait to see if it would come back on. We waited for a half hour mingling outside until it was announced that Nellie would play anyway! So only bathed in a small amount of candlelight she did her complete solo show. She was amazing. Only the second time I have seen her but I plan to see her as often as she plays in the Bay Area. Not that I really saw her!

My sister and I attended the concert with our mother who is a long time "Ray" fan. I enjoyed the concert from start to finish. The entire family are great performers as well as talented musicians/singers

I will preface this with the fact that I've driven 1,000 miles to see Braid in the past. Braid always delivers with poetic lyrics and quality instrumentals, just a great band, and sound. PERIOD. Start listening and see them live if you never have. Robert Nanna is fantastic - 'nough said.

Royce Da 5'9 Rocked the Place, One Heck Of A Time!

LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Jack Antonoff and Steel Train! They better tour again, if and when, fun. stops touring!

Such a personal venue with amazing artists. Rachel was engaged with the crowd, along with fabulous music. Venue was perfect, also. Sound system was great.

Do not miss this tour with Mike Howe. His voice was top notch! They played a nice selection of tunes. I grew to like him singing the David Wayne tracks. Three new songs were introduced that night. Pretty good. Chris Caffery from Savatage was filling in for the other guitarist. That was freakin' cool!!

The band was pretty good but the acoustics were not. The bass player complained about playing in an "oil barrel" but he had a huge bass rig that was probably part of the problem. The balance was off any time the band got loud. I would really like to hear a solo performance by Ethan Iverson. The music was intellectually satisfying.

Both of the impersonators looked very much like Shania and Tim and they both sounded amazing! However the concert was very short it only lasted about an hour and 45 minutes tops. Too much of it was hokey little things that kind of took away from the show. I would ve preferred to hear more songs from each of the artist since that is what I paid for instead of bringing people on stage to dance or hearing impersonations of other artists. Many of the top songs from each artist were not even sung because so much time was wrapped up in other things. However the songs they did sing were excellent. Also the Tim McGraw impersonator was playing the guitar and did a terrible job of pretending to play it. He needs to learn how to fake that a lot better! However he did look great up there!

This was the first time I got to see !!! live. They put on such and amazing show, and sound so good live! Multiple times he got off the stage to sing on the floor with the audience, and at one point pulled a fan on stage to dance. The venue was also fantastic, I don't think there was a bad place to stand (or sit) either visually or acoustically. And the two opening acts were fantastic. I never heard them before that night, but will definitely be adding them to my collection!
