If you have a chance to see this show in your hometown, definitely do so. I saw the Seattle show last night (June 8, 2008) and was thoroughly entertained.

I saw RTF Last night in Toronto and it was unreal!! They were crazy good, beyond any expectation.

After the show we went around back and caught them heading out. I got to meet all of them except for Al...who had a bouncer escort him out. But I was like 2 feet away from him. I shook hands with Stan, Lenny and Chic and got them to sign my poster though! And Spoke to chic very briefly...but was too starstruck to say anything important or interesting.

By the way Stanley played his alembic for the whole frst set and the encore as the second set was acoustic (which was actually the highlight of the show for me), and it was looking good and sounding great! It also looked like he was playing through two 2x10 and 2 1x15. Anyone know what his rig is?

Tonight I'm seeing Marcus Miller and I'm going to try and get him to sign the inside of my cavity plate and tomorrow john sco trio, mike stern trio and John Abercrombie organ trio.

At the Dallas show he was using SWR cabs.

I thought thats what they might've been... i was top row so a bit far away but those cabs have pretty distinctive grills.

I saw stanley recently in London and was at the very front and he did have 2x swr Big Ben's and 2x SWR 4x10 cabs so he probably not sure what the amp was but in the past 2 years I've only seen him using SWR cabs

Just saw the concert last night at the Place Des Arts in Montreal. Best concert I ever saw in my life! It lasted almost 3 hours. The first half was electric, the second half acoustic. Each of the four musicians perfomed the MOST amazing solos.
Just loved it!

So THAT's how you play an Alembic...

GOT-DAMN IT!

I am talking about Th-EEE Dragon Breath Alembic Bass. Google it, and you will agree what a beauty it is...

I try my best to be positive,have a good evening

Jazzyvee, I bet he'll be there soon...I missed him in seattle(I'm kickin my own butt)

Stanley was playing his Vermillion Series I. It was quite a sight. His hands are so big that it looked like a little toy. Seeing him play an Alembic was a BIG part of the pleasure of the show. I'm glad it was his only electric Bass of the show.
Al Dimeola Switched between a LP Standard and two PRS guitars.

Just great!
