solid show, bad venue
by playeternity on 1/7/11Revolution Live - Ft LauderdaleAlways great to see bobby playing with wasserman...personally would have preferred not to have drummer present...leave that for ratdog...bobby has to be one of the most unique guitar players in rock...not flashy but always doing something unique to keep the rhythm & melody interesting...he is showing his age a bit-forgetting words here & there-losing his place during desolation row is understandable but also a few other lyrical miscues. any dead fan knows he has never seemed to get thru truckin' on a consistent basis all these years (no-he did not play that at this show). really love bobby's acoustic playing-with his vocal style & wasserman i feel this is his strongest asset-the drumming can get in the way of this...that being said the scarlet>sugar mags sandwich & nfa encore were rockin'. as to revolution live-what a dump-toilets were overflowed before show even started. place was so packed i did not even bother trying to get a beer-may be showing my age a bit there-just not up to the battle anymore (& a little bitter about the bathroom situation). was planning to go to little feat on 1/18 but probably won't-plaza theatre in orlando much nicer (1/19). generally cool scene outside show.
