My son has seen them twice but this will be my 1st time. I learned about Snarky Puppy here in the Club, can't remember who posted about them, but thank you! I love these guys! jazzyvee Senior Member Username: jazzyvee Post Number: 4545 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Saturday, June 27, 2015 - 1:22 am:    I saw them on their first UK tour here a couple of years ago. Incredible sounding band of excellent musicians and so tight. I think you will like them. pauldo Senior Member Username: pauldo Post Number: 1521 Registered: 6-2006 Posted on Saturday, June 27, 2015 - 5:09 am:    Rusty that should be a great time! I also first heard of them here and love what they do. Obviously your son has a lot of love for you! tncaveman Advanced Member Username: tncaveman Post Number: 295 Registered: 2-2011 Posted on Saturday, June 27, 2015 - 5:19 am:    You will definitely enjoy them. Such a cool band. Seen them here in Nashville 2x. Second time it was at a crappy place called the Mercy Lounge. Only the first three rows of folks standing in front could see anything - I'm 5' 8" Sounded great though. Third time through - skipped it. I sure hope that they play somewhere else next time. Also, 21+ at the place and the kids did not get to go. And BTW - Buy as many of their CD's at the venue that you can. They make more $$ that way. I've actually talked to a couple of them - really nice guys. The whole band signed a t-shirt for my daughter because she was too young for the venue. I might post up a photo of that - one of her favorite shirts! We also saw Funky Knuckles the first time here - really cool band from Dallas. Have seen them 2x now. Check them out on Spotify. They are on Michael Leagues record label.

I turned him on to Dream Theater & Snarky Puppy, & he loves them both now! He met Michael League at his 1st SP show & got him to autograph a copy of Bass Player magazine that he was on the cover for me. keith_h Senior Member Username: keith_h Post Number: 2243 Registered: 2-2005 Posted on Sunday, June 28, 2015 - 2:57 pm:    I saw them here in Raleigh at the Pour House. It was a great show. So much so that even my wife remarked how she liked what they played. Have fun, not that I feel you won't. Keith
