Allman Brothers At The Beacon – Southbound

It’s that time of year again! I will be going to see the Allman Brothers at the Beacon Theater in NYC this weekend. It’s the best place to see them. Here’s a great clip from a few days ago with a horn section and Eric Krasno from Soulive playing Southbound. Derek trucks looks especially happy [...]

Found It! Dire Straits, Rotterdam 1978

This was just picked up by the Associated Press yesterday. AP (Baltimore) October 8, 2012 Area man Steve Sherman found a copy of Dire Straits Live At Rotterdam 1978 on You Tube and excitedly forwarded  the link to his friend Ronnie Samuelson. The concert featured one of the greatest unknown guitar licks of all time [...]

Eric Clapton’s Patek Philippe Watch For Sale

Now this is cool! I’ve posted about large diamonds like The Graff Pink going up for auction and there are often famous guitars and instruments for sale though various action houses. However, when I saw that Eric Clapton’s Patek Philippe watch was going on the auction block, it gave me goosebumps. Granted, the star of [...]

Warren Haynes Solo, Jessica

It’s been a while (all summer) since I’ve posted, as I am still “Lost in Transactions” but I want to show a short video clip of Warren Haynes playing Jessica that I saw at Merriweather Post Pavilion. Enjoy! This was taken with my iPhone, not bad

The Dirty Mac – Yer Blues

My friend Glen sent this to me and I can’t stop watching it. Now here’s a band – John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards (on bass!) and Mitch Mitchell playing Yer Blues from the White Album circa 1968. Does it get any better? The interview in the beginning with Mick Jagger is great too. Enjoy!

Phish New York City, MSG 12-29-11

This was an unreal show. I am so back on the Phish train. Met my buddy Jim in NYC and we kicked it old school. We also had some great jams back at the hotel room. I was lucky enough to see my other good friends before and after the show, so overall it was [...]

Grateful Dead Terrapin Station 4-27-77

I have some posts cued up but of course I’m Lost in Transactions right now, so I’ll throw a video up – Terrapin Station from the Capitol Theater 4-27-77. This Spring Tour was the best few months The Grateful Dead ever played. “The story teller makes no choice. Soon you will not hear his voice. [...]

Wow, what a show. Check out this Wilson->Sand. Great light show too – enjoy! Phish – 6/11/11 \”Wilson\” > \”Sand\”

Allman Brothers Band – Blue Sky

Haven’t posted in a while so I found a good video to keep these posts current! Dickey Betts and Warren Haynes playing Blue Sky in 1991. Saw them a lot these years in college. Notice Warren playing a fender strat with lace sensor pickups (like I play along with another guy named Eric Clapton). Now [...]
