One of his many gems..
Saw them a couple of times too. They were a really fun live band. Met them all too. They were all incredibly nice.
I would bet most of the people here would recognize Rob's guitar partner in The Bears; Adrian Belew.
Rob plays a poppy style of music with the odd bit of stunt guitar and lyrics bouncing between dark and humorous. You can check Rob out on bandcamp.

He won't be playing any more gigs, but the nicest "rock star" I ever met was Gregg Allman. Just a regular guy.
EDIT: met him Daytona visiting his Mom a long time ago. I was roady - ing and had a few drinks with him.

Neither have I, but just seen this, so if he's been playing with Adrian Belew worth digging out his music
Saw a jam band double bill of Dogs In A Pile and Pigeons Playing Ping Pong on Saturday. Hadn’t heard anything from either of the bands (but have heard *of* them) and had a blast.
And was reminded to post here as I just nabbed tickets (after a harrowing battle with AXS who kept telling me my “session expired” over and over and over) for King Gizzard at Red Rocks. 3 shows! One on Sunday the 8th of September, and two (one at 1:30 PM, and one at 8 PM) on Monday the 9th of September. Apparently they did this earlier this year, and debuted a new album for those holding the two show pass, as you couldn’t leave if you had the two show pass. Here’s hoping they do that again!
Looking at their FB page it was already announced in October.

I’ve wrestled a bit with concert going. We have some casinos nearby where classic rock bands come to play.
I’ve got a front row ticket for Night Ranger before the year is out. Saw them in 2019 and they put on a great show.
But the audience for a casino gig around here is... annoying. Most of it is because of the folks who feel the need to get up constantly during a show and walk around.
I somewhat humorously (although probably accurately) attribute this to the age of the bladders in attendance being in direct conflict with the need to have multiple adult beverages during the show.
Frankly, if I hadn’t found a front row ticket, I might have passed. I have some favorite spots further back where the sound and the view is just right... if people stay in their seats and stop wandering around. But that doesn’t happen. So I end up pissed off at people. Hopefully in the front row I avoid that. (My hearing, however, will likely pay a price.)
We’re also a lazy bunch of concert goers around here. I saw Great White and Quiet Riot recently. Efforts by the bands to get everyone clapping and on their feet (other than to wander off to the bathroom/bar) was a miserable failure. I felt bad for the bands. The two people in front of me did manage to raise their hands multiple times to film the shows, though.
Trying not to be bitter and think everyone should enjoy a show the same way I do, but it’s difficult.
I'm a gambler, and you'd think casinos would be my haven, right? But there's a parallel frustration – just like those folks disrupting the concert vibe. The gamble's not just on the slots; it's also on the audience. Speaking of casinos, I've found a lifeline in navigating the chaos – https://casinosanalyzer.ca/casino-bonuses/mobile-no-depositit's my secret weapon for sifting through the noise and landing on a casino that suits my style. Just like finding that front-row ticket, it's about hitting the jackpot in the gaming world. I feel you on wanting everyone to enjoy the show the same way, but alas, it's a tough bet. Here's to hoping your Night Ranger front-row escape is blissfully uninterrupted!
When attendees of live concerts exhibit disparate expectations and behaviors, it can be quite annoying. Attendees' overall experience may be impacted by the audience's dynamics, particularly in places like casinos. Seeing Night Ranger up front should provide you with a more concentrated and immersive experience, possibly reducing the disturbances brought on by audience movement. Attending a concert is an individual experience, and it can be difficult to strike a balance between your own enjoyment and the energy of the crowd as a whole.
I saw Night Ranger a couple months ago...they came to my little town (3500 people) and 6500 people showed up for the outdoor show. I was near the stage and they were simply amazing. So much talent, and vocally, still spot on.
Billy Cobham tonight in Madrid. ……A legend

We had two brilliant nights with Marillion here in Utrecht last week. Brilliant venue that we are so lucky to have within crawling distance of our home. Never counted, but I’ve seen Marillion live about 50 times, I guess. Never lets you down!
