Some minor new arrangements from the 2015 tour. Band was rocking and you can tell the dig playing this town. Todd is playing an array of different guitars from the past. One of the best crowds I've been apart of at a BHTM show, they really got down and into each tune, and the band fed off that....if I can find the set list somewhere I'll post it later.

What an amazing show...it was a beautiful evening despite the rain at the end. Looking out over the stage to the east  after the sun went down was stunning. Over the lights of Denver and it's sourounding towns there was lighting from an approaching storm and one town had a fireworks display well off to the south of Denver. ...

The songs of Willie Dixon show is coming to the Strathmore next month for their Blues Festival. I know nothing of Big Head Todd, except that you like them zepscoda ( :) ).  I asked Mr ebk if he was interested and he said definitely maybe.  So we definitely may be going! :D

Hi zepscoda.  Is this Red Rocks amphitheater?  It looks amazing, I'd love to see a concert there.

Yes, it is Red Rocks. It's a very cool place...a physical workout for sure, lots of stairs and lower oxygen content in the air can make it challenging at times...lol...but a must see if you're up in the Denver area. It's a park, open to the public. If you go on a day when there's nothing scheduled, you can walk around the entire place!

EBK I think you guys will dig it...it's not your typical BHTM show. On this tour The Monsters are basically the backing band, but it's a awesome blues set. Here's a clip from a show last month...

Sounds great, zepscoda!  I'll have to check out their concert calendar for 2017.  Sounds fun to walk around, too.  Thanks for the info. :)

Thanks so much for sharing, zepscoda!  There is a full moon scheduled for June 10, 2017.  I'm hoping to see it from the beautiful Red Rocks Amphitheater. :)

Amazing evening at Red Rocks Saturday night. As the band was jamming through the fourth  tune of the set, Resignation Superman , the Strawberry Moon began to rise above the horizon.  The pic I took turned out a little grainy,  but I posted it anyway. Perfect weather and the band was excellent . I have never seen that place so packed. 

Highlights :

Black Beehive & Josephine was the best versions I've seen live. 

Hazel Miller joining the band for Please Don't Tell Her and Rock Steady. Her vocals were better than ever!

Dedication of Midnight  Rider to Greg Allman 

Weaving the following cover tunes into Circle: Your Own Personal Jesus,  Land of the New Rising Sun, and Hey Joe

I can't wait for next June...lol..gotta get seats for the 2018 show.  I'm getting too old for  general admission.
