Bands to see

[john skelley]

Are there unknown Bands you have been to see recently, you could recommend.
Please, dont use this opportunity to plug your own band or get your friends to :mad:

Please state gendre too.

I have just been to see the Groove Doctors, they play all there own bluesy material and they are really worth going to see. Excellent songs, played expertly, and with passion and humour.

I Also enjoyed the blues band Nu_Blues who are combining blues music with some Rap. The guitarist is worth a listen, superb :guitarist

[Ernie Ball 1988]

Motley Crue is going on tour. :guitarist

Hi John, if they ever tour here in New Zealand, I will definitely be going to see Los Lonely Boys from the U.S.A.

If you haven't heard of them, go here: www.loslonelyboys.com

3 very soulful Texmex lads who channel SRV and Carlos Santana beautifully in their own refreshing way. Not blues per se, but neither was SRV, more blues/rock or as they call themselves "Texican Blues/rock".

Robert Randolph & The Family Band.

There were incredible opening up for EC this year... I would certainly go see them again. :bannana_g

Austin City Limits Festival last year had BOTH Los Lonely Boys AND Robert Randolph on the bill! RR ended up jamming with half of the North Mississippi Allstars (another great band, worth checking out, if you don't know them, John - that's where Nu Blues got a lot of their ideas, I suspect!) and Skunk Baxter out of Steely Dan.
That was one hell of a weekend!

Sorry for the end of the net posting, I clicked on your link and it was a dark blank screen and After seeing your pic I thought you were a wind up merchant.I thought you were insinuating I was a lonely Boy, Lmao.
Now I realise you were straight up. ;)

Here is a thread worth reviving..................I would like to see the Groove Hogs. I've never seen them, but have heard their music. The first time was on the Sopranos, as it were....I saw their name on the credits and bought some of their music on iTunes.
