Took myself down to the Jefferson Center for Performing Arts here in Roanoke last night to see the acoustic duo Hot Tuna, Jack Casady & Jorma Kaukonen. The Jeff. Center is a fantastic venue... having seen several shows there, (even got to play that stage a couple times) it always sounds fantastic. They still had a few center section seats left when I got there too.
I'll make the review short... man, those guys can
really PLAY. Biased? Yeah... but I was riveted from curtain to curtain. Go see them, if you haven't already.
Here's their encore,
"Water Song" from an earlier performance.
I didn't take but a couple pictures last night... they do allow 'no-flash' pics at Jeff Center, but not video. Anyway, I can't stand audience distractions, so I made it quick. The last picture of Jorma's guitar is especially for Coz, who like myself, lusteth after petite Martin guitars. I gather this is his Custom M-36, though his Signature Martin is an M-30, the natural-topped one in stand-by mode. I'm guessing it's kept in open G tuning for Water Song.
