Yep, as summer starts to trickle away it’s starting to look a little like fall. Bring it on I say!
OK… last night at the Blu Grotto… my first gig ‘gig’ since… well, you know!

I wish. We were as far back as you could get. Had the bar right behind us.@JohnB
Were you seated up front center last night? @Joe K
I could see the shiver of what seemed like adrenaline and relief after Verlons’ amazing offerings. His skill is right up there with Mr. Dylan in the sense that he could not only write absolutely incredible songs, yet at the same time produce a cinematic landscape for the ol’ brain pan. For me anyhow. Superb.
Wow!! What an Amazon set. Can’t wait for you and jack live again, in as hurl says radio land
Why Thank You John for the nice gesture but we are born & raised in NJ. 65+ yrs. for me.The wife & I try our best to sit low in our seats so not to obstruct peoples views the best we can.
A couple of years ago my son(6’8) went with me to the Beacon for a show.Needless to say the guy behind us made a comment about us. Enjoy the night
Some of those newly uncovered gems making an appearance!
Musta been great!
A warm welcome to the Garden State for you and your wife Joe. I will look for you, but I hope I am not sitting behind you. Enjoy this special show and I wish you a safe return trip to your home. @Joe K
Son!! You laid it to ‘em with that set list! The full range of your repertoire presented in twenty great songs. I know no one left there unsatisfied. Weren’t nobody walkin’ the blues away from that place!
The wife & I will be in the house tonight. Most likely the tallest couple to be there for sure.
Dug V#1 and Q #21 & #22. Thank you.
Just let those “fiery fingers” warm things up, Jorma.
