A memorable night with John Gorka
by FolkFan3 on 10/4/12Rhythm Room - PhoenixIt was a small crowd at the Rhythm Room in Phoenix that showed up to see John Gorka. There were probably two main reasons for that: 1) The show was poorly promoted, and 2) Crosby, Stills & Nash were also playing Phoenix that night. That was too bad, since Gorka put on a great show and deserved to be seen by many more people. His voice was in good form, his between-song banter was typically self-deprecating but humorous (and sometimes downright hilarious), and his guitar and keyboard playing were impeccable. During the 2nd set after the break he brought out his small, customized "G-sharp" electric guitar, saying "Now I'm going to play a little guitar." The sound from that instrument was amazing!
