Great show! Jimmie Vaughan is one of the best guitar players out there and he really delivered. The band was excellent, as was Lou Ann Barton. Highly recommended, I'd go see this show again in a heartbeat.
I love Texas blues and make a point to catch Jimmie Vaughan anytime I can. He is a terrific guitar player and even better person. His band is great, including an amazing rhythm section and the recent additions of former Roomful of Blues members Doug James (Baritone Sax) and Greg Piccolo (Tenor Sax). Lou Ann Barton has a wonderful soulful voice. Jimmie's new album, "Blues, Ballads, and Favorites" is really good. My favorite song is "The Pleasure Is All Mine." I highly recommend going to see Jimmie Vaughan and the Tilt-A-Whirl Band, featuring Lou Ann Barton. You won't be disappointed.
This was the BLUES! Great experience. Can't wait till he comes back to California!
I arrived early to pick up my ticket and then I went next door to the club to check it out because the doors were open. There stood Jimmie with the owner I presume and he turned as asked me "How ya doin" ? well, I was in shock for a second but finally responded by saying "Great Mr. Vaughn it's a pleasure to meet you! I quickly asked him if he would sign my pick guard off my Fender "Jimmie Vaughan" strat and he said "I'd be happy to, where is it?" I said "it's in my car and he said go get it! When I returned he asked me what I wanted him to write on it and I said "I don't know" and we both started to think out loud and finally he asked me about my what was my favorite music and I told him "your music for sure" so he wrote TO LARRY...Keep Playing The Blues!!! Jimmie Vaughan....It's was the coolest experience I have ever had let alone getting to shake a the hand of a true LEGEND!! He is so friendly and down to earth.....what a fantastic gentleman he is
Jimmie Vaughan was absolutely "PHENOMENAL!" He played songs from his new album, which I have just about worn out already listening to it. His band was choice and his guest appearance (Lou Ann Barton) did a wonderful job accompanying him in songs like "Wheel of Fortune" and I Miss You So." The audience went crazy when Jimmie sang Boom Baba Boom, again accompanied by Lou Ann Barton. The venue was the best! Where else can you have a great dinner and enjoy Rock and Roll at it's best?
One of the best blues concert i've ever been to. Jimmie is down to earth and very very caring for his fans. Singed every single persons cd after the show. The show itself is already amazing, if your a fan of blues this is a concert you shouldn't miss.
Well, I really am a fan of the Rhythm Room. I love it. It's cool, it's old, it's great. HOWEVER, when you are forced to stand in that packed little space listening to Jimmie Vaughan, for goodness sakes-- and have no room to dance??? Yeeah, then you're like, "why the hell don't they expand this place?" lol....you have Stevie Ray's brother killing it and the guitars are wailing and the horns are blasting -- and that's when you need a huge dance floor because that's where he belongs. Great music, of course... drawback was after the opening act--waited an hour standing for Jimmie but he was pretty worth it!
I had never seen him live before, it was everything I had imagined! He is with out a doubt the best blues guitar player alive! To see him in the best blues club in AZ & it being a small venue made it even better.
On Wednesday May 19th Jimmie Vaughan and his band pulled into NYC for one night at B.B. King's Club in Times Square. A very high energy opening set from Moreland & Arbuckle, a roots rock group from Kansas started off the evening. Jimmie Vaughan then came out, assisted by Doug James and Greg Piccolo (alums of Roomful of Blues) on horns and gave a rousing set of old favorites from prior shows and CDs and new tunes from his upcoming CD. Jimmie was very comfortable during the set and bantered with the crowd between numbers adding to the intimacy of the performance. Halfway through the set Jimmie was joined on stage by long time musical companion from the old days in Austin, Lou Ann Barton who added her own warmth and flavor to the show. At the end of the set Jimmie did a solo performance of Six Strings Down, a song he wrote for his late brother, Stevie Ray Vaughan. It was a wonderful evening of great blues and roots music at B.B. Kings. We hope that Jimmie comes back to the Northeast soon. Thanks Jimmie.
Moreland & Arbuckle were phenomenal. Their brand of blues was intense and unforgettable. I would see them again any time. Jimmy Vaughn is a legend and his band was excellent. Lou Ann Barton's vocals were much appreciated.
Show was great, he played for over 2 hrs. and performed a wide varity of songs, new and old. Added unexpected treat was a guest appearance by Lou Ann Barton who sang numerous numbers with Jimmie and solo. Really goes back. Loved the show, even the opening act was was really good, Shaun Rounds played the blues like he had been playing well beyond his years.
JP Soars & The Red Hots was warm-up band. They did a great job, a lot of fun & would be great to see again in local venue. We've seen Jimmie a number of times & he hasn't lost a step. Loved the addition of the saxes & stand-up bass. He didn't play as many old favorites as he has, but that often happens w/ a new album coming out (June/July according to him). Lou Ann Barton was a nice surprise, and sang about 1/2 the show in one form or another. It was our 1st trip to this venue & although it was fine, it would have been nice to know that there was no seating in the stage area. If you get the chance & like that style, never miss a chance to see Jimmie. He'll deliver!
The band lacked enthusiam and this reflected in the crowd. The opening act stole the show. The songs were vintage rockabilly in sound. Not what we expected. Venue planned poorly for wheelchair fans and their escorts.
The show was great. He can still play the blues like very few ever have. The rest of the band was also tight. The room has no seats but the elevated stage makes it a great venue.
First act was JP Soars and the Red Hots. Well, this man is one exceptional guitarist himself, by the end of his set he was blowing minds and bringing the house down. I had never heard of him before and was expecting average, but he alone would have been worth the price of admission. Jimmie Vaughn gave a great show, his band was terrific and he is so smooth and confident on the guitar, loved his singing too. Wonderful night for blues/electric guitar fans!!! One note, the venue was like a mini house of blues, but consumers should be warned that there is no seating. We had to stand for 4 hours (of incredible music!) but having recently been injured in a car accident, that is something I might not have chosen to put myself through had I known. Other than that, I loved the venue -- relaxed and friendly and all about the music, and I was standing right under Jimmie's fingers and could see every note he played--- I had a blast! (despite the pain issues).
jimmy and band creat high energy and rockin atmosphere.excellant showmanship a must see legendary performer.
