Yeah the presale was for the ticket holders of the cancelled show but here is the password: drusky
You still have time to use it…public tix go on sale saturday.

Yeah Bruce is the best musical buck bang…you know what I meant.
Hopefully he won’t have a opener so that he’ll jam out for 2 to 3 hours instead of the 90 minute deal he did with Bela.
See ya there!

😆

Yo T,
I forgot to mention the best part of ‘I am hettier than thou’ drunk guy…he actually tried to hand Chuck Keith a request of ‘Every Little Kiss’ with a $20 attatched to it. His face was priceless.

You’re right tho man, these cats that claim to be such fans should know how Bruce is and what not. How many times has he said he won’t do ‘ELK’ because it didn’t evolve well with his style.
Some time anybody on this board wants to be instantly annoyed go on ticketmaster or livenation and look up Bruce Hornsby and check out the reviews.
People give him 1 star because he doesn’t play his ‘hits’ after they go on some rant about being ‘hardcore fans’ if they were so ‘hardcore’ they would have realized 15 years ago that he didn’t revolve his show around his ‘hits’.

T the best part about getting ‘He’s Gone’ I yelled out ‘Rat in the drain ditch!’ and he looked over smiling and instantly went right into it. Good stuff mang!

Although I didn’t get my Resting Place, Lost in the Snow, or Invisible, but I got my other four so 4/7 is still great!

Hey bruuuceboardnewbie I applaud your enthusiasm and positive vibe of the Flecktones and claim of love for Bruce and welcome you to the bruuuce board. You picked a great thread to bust your Bruuuce cherry with, but you missed the point that I made within this thread. T made a great point/explanation/point again 💡

On a sad note T the Bruce/Bobby shows were the complete opposite which sux because those wooks missed out on some good shite our boy BH does. I never got why those two didn’t alternate openers so that didn’t happen.

T-bird you should still go to the Windsor show because that would be a jam packed nite of some jazzy snazzy jams. If you like jazz you’ll dig Jaimoe’s band I dl’d two of his shows and really dig it. You can find some of his shows on etree.
Also, Gregg Allman is playing with a different band and don’t have that goon Warren Haynes with him wrecking songs with his horrible guitar sound/playing/voice. Allman’s solo band is much more jazzier/bluesier and he changes up many of his ABB tunes and also he plays ‘Im no Angel’ come on you know you miss that song.
You can hear samples from https://www.munckmusic.com/wms/mp3playe … concertID= what the? link doesn’t work shortcut style. Oh well you gotta take my word for it.
I know you said its in a hot-ass field and the price and possibility of it raining and turning the field to a mud pit and possible wookie skinny dip but that show looks interesting and I gotta say I’m jealous that stuff like that don’t come to Cleveland anymore
Just go man and dance in the sweaty field with the wooks that Allman will attract.

…but yeah Bela should still be the opener

I hear ya. Most openers play only a little over an hour and the closer usually gets about 2 hours when co-billed in this kind of situation. Yeah they each will come out for a song or two in each others sets.
The point I was trying to make is that Bela’s music can put you to sleep if you’re not into what he does as it is 90% instrumentals as Bruce’s music can be explosive with funky stankin grooves and can end the concert on a high note.

Two different styles of music which do need a correct order based on style of music and the size of fanbase. I seen it when Bob Weir and Ratdog opened for Black Crowes….most went there for Bob Weir and when his band was done so were the fans. A large amount of the crowd left before the Black Crowes came out. Im not saying people would leave for Bela Im just pointing out it makes more sense to have Bruce close the show on a high note with his style of music compared to Bela’s bluegrass instrumentals, but yeah to each their own.
