Your last concert was to see who and when?


Pretty simple, what and when was your last concert?

I got Johnny’s autograph at the airport for my date at the concert later that night with Led Zeppelin and Jethro Tull. 1969.
Pixies back in April of this year. Mostly a greatest hits performance, but that is exactly what I was hoping for!!

First time seeing them live, so it was definitely a bucket list concert.


Bob Seger- a few weeks ago. Musicianship was excellent. At 75 years of age, he hits all the notes, performs like it was his first tour and plays every song imaginable! Sound crew was friendly and sat first row behind the mix. This is Bob Seger’s final tour and well worth the trip.



Hey Geoffkait, I saw those two bands in San Diego in 1969, Led Zep was the opener for Jethro if I remember correctly.
Yuko Mabuchi performed at her exuberant return to the Vibrato Grill in Bel Air last night, billed as a celebration of the release of her paean to Miles Davis. I thoroughly enjoyed the first set, which included Miles’ So What as well as her inspired conception of Stevie Wonder’s Isn’t She Lovely.

Yuko’s creative stylings bridged bebop to a contemporary flair in her own high energy impressions. She was ably accompanied by her trio mates Del Atkins (bass) and Bobby Breton (drums) with guest JJ Kirkpatrick on the trumpet. The group laid out extended versions of some of the songs on her CD, taking the opportunity to air the full detail of their inspired interpretations without any time constraint.

The Vibrato is a lovely venue. Entering from the bright sun-lit Bel Air hillside, its blackout entry was a complete contrast that forced me to pause while my eyes adjusted. Further in, the darkness was a frame to brilliant colors decorating the stage in an expansive two storey dining room. A perfect setting for an evening of enchanting music.
