Crosby, Stills and Nash at the Fox

The sixties returned to the Fox and of course Rockman was there with his partner in crime Mr. Jimmy!  Great long show from CSN who don't hit those high notes all the time, but get em when they need em!
They played for almost three hours mixing up the classics with a bunch of eclectic solo stuff particularly from David Crosby's new album, Cros.

Graham was great and Steven Stills remains one of the greatest guitar players alive!
They finished super strongwith Almost Cut My Hair, Wooden Ships and a rare Suite Judy Blue Eyes!

Next up Steve Hackett the guitarist from Genesis plays Genesis Revisited as Symphony Hall.
See ya at the show!

It's 2014 and Rockman is back...Ratdog at the Tabernacle!

Sorry fans got, a bit worn out from last year's 30 concerts/30 rounds of golf.  But I'm back for 2014 to share the rock with you as finally the snow is gone and the rock is on!

Kicked it off with Bob Weir and Ratdog reprising the greatest of the Grateful Dead last nite at the Tabernacle.  The young and the old (including yours truly) were out last nite for the final show of Ratdog's spring tour and it was one of the best set lists of the tour!


Some serious guitar power chords like Pink Floyd meets Lynyrd Skynyrd!



Set 1:

Help on the Way
Slipknot
Don't Let Go
She Belongs to Me
Lazy River Road
Little Red Rooster
Ashes and Glass
Promised Land


Set 2:

Peggy-O
Victim or the Crime
THE WEIGHT
Samson and Delilah
Terrapin Station 
The Other One
Space
MORNING DEW

Encore:

Broekdown Palace (Fare thee well…)

A very tight first set with a blazing dueling slide guitars on Little Red Rooster

The second set was insane:

Terrapin (of course this is Atlanta) into the Other One into Space into Morning Dew into Sugar Magnolia, crazy.. .ATL got one of the best set lists on the tour!



Onward to CSN at the Fox next Saturday!
