Very cool story. We went the year Dave broke his leg and played from the throne. Taylor came out front and did Under Pressure by Bowie & Queen late in the set. It was a blast.
Dang butler basketball is so hot right now the music thread and food porn thread are hard to find That means good things…. Seeing charley Crockett tomorrow night and couldn’t be more stoked anyone seen him live? Sent from my iPhone using Butler Hoops mobile app
I saw Charley Crockett back in 2015 when he opened for Sean Hayes at a small music club. It was my introduction to his music. My memory of him at that time was finding him really annoying. He had this big on stage persona worked out, but didn't really have the music to back it up. Now he's got the chops to go with that persona. I also think he's toned it down a bit and now he seems more authentic, if that makes sense. Anyway, I really want to see him again. I was supposed to catch him and Joshua Ray Walker together last fall but Covid interrupted those plans. My efforts to see a good live show are snake bit. The last show I went to was the Tyler Childers-Sturgill Simpson arena tour right before everything shut down due to covid in March 2020. I've had tickets to four shows in the last 8 months where either the show didn't actually happen or I ended up not being able to attend. I'm jealous. Have fun.

Because he was working for his weekend. I would have loved to have gone. Hope it was a good show. Sent from my iPhone using Butler Hoops
I was out there as well and agree Styx knocked it out of the park in baseball terminology and Loverboy and REO was good.
A late Phi Delt brother’s claim to fame was his appearance on REO’s live You Get What You Play For album since he was in the crowd at their Indianapolis Convention Center show. Sent from my iPad using Butler Hoops

We saw him at Koka Booth. It's one of my favorite venues regionally. A small-to-midsize ampitheater that gets a lot of quality acts. It's carved out of a stand of long leaf pines and so all the vendors, bathrooms, etc. are in the shade under the tree canopy, which is really nice 'round here. There's a few pines in the wings of the lawn seating area too. Anyway, great venue. Funny, too, because it's in the middle of an office park in Cary, which is a suburb very comparable to Carmel only considerably larger. I don't like much of anything in Cary besides that amphiteater. Billy Strings did a three night stand there and we caught the last of the three. I was incredibly impressed with his technical skill on the guitar. Also, his mandolin player is top notch. I think the only live performance I have seen on the mandolin that is comparable is David Grisman. I'm not as much into the jam band scene as I once was and if I had anything negative to say, it'd be about no longer having the patience needed for that crowd.
