Concert attendance


I realize for many people the concert season is just getting started, but this season seems a little different. The economy seems tighter and people are a little concerned about financial circumstances.
I have been to only one concert this year, but I do have tickets for a concert in August. I hope to go to more shows this year, but I don't have any plans right now.
Are you going to be attending as many concerts this year as you have in the past?

Last night I went to the Yardbirds concert in Annapolis,MD.
Excellent concert and fun for all who attended. The Yardbirds were truly a great club band. They played great tunes and they were enjoying themselves tremendously and were very gracious aferwards with autographs, questions, etc. If you are interested, go to their website:www.theyardbirds.com for their concert dates. The
tickets were only $25.00 and worth every penny.
You screwed up royally!! Gipie Mayo is a fine guitarist, who plays the Yardbird's songs with great elan. The band members Chris and Jim (who were very polite to the crowd
afterwards) absolutely love playing with them. Alan Glenn the blues harpest was much better than Keith and John Iban was very good as a bass player and singer. Actually I think the newer members have total reverence for what the band stood for. They had a great 10 minute "raveup" of Smokestack Lightning, that was as good as I heard. However, THE highlight of the show was their version of Dazed and Confused, their last recorded song, just before the band split up( of course you know who made it famous). Absolutely awesome!!! As far as I am concerned, these new members are Yardbirds. They had fun, the audience had fun. Would it have been more enjoyable if Jeff Beck or Paul Samwell-Smith had been playing, really I am not sure nor do I care. As far as the Ramshead Tavern is concerned, real nice, great pub food, nice selection of beer on tap. The acoustics/PA system was excellent. Again, I had a blast!!!
