Those should be some good shows. I've never seen Buddy Guy live but I saw a TV concert once. It was an outdoor gig in The Woodlands, TX. Buddy Guy, Greg Rzab on bass, and a drummer. I had never hear of Greg Rzab before. I was amazed at his playing. It was filled with slapping and popping and perfectly supported Guy. I have never hear that kind of bass in blues. I heard that he's the guy who owns Jaco's J-bass. Don't know for sure, though. Kevin, are you going to check out some of the shows? Rich |

Yeah, I'll probably be going to ALL of them. With the exception of Skynyrd, the tix are dirt cheap and I'm only about 40mins. away from the Starland. I may also go to some of the other shows coming as well. As a life-long severe migraine sufferer, smoky clubs tend to be brutal to me. Add sleep deprivation (I'm up at four AM for work) and a little alchohol (one or two only) and I'm guaranteed a gut-wrenching major hangover-type migraine by the next morning at the latest. Regardless, I love music and CAN'T live without it, so if I wanna see live acts or play out live, I have to suffer for my art. That is, at least until they institute NYC-style NO SMOKING IN PUBLIC PLACES legislation in Joisey. |

Apparently Jaco had several Jazz basses. Check out this interview with Rzab. Lots of neat stuff. Oh, and Buddy Guy can play! |
