Nils’ talent as a mysician and storyteller had the audience engaged for the entire two hour show. You don’t have to be familiar with his music (I wasn’t!) to love the show. He may be the best artist touring right now. Don’t miss him!
While Nils has been in several famous groups, I like him best when he is with his own band. They play some songs which are Mesmerizing. Great evening.
Wonderful show= he is so talented and so is his band and brothers! Very versatile and down to earth. I love the atmosphere of the Birchmere venue but wish the ticketing was different
Went to The Stone Pony for the first time to see Nils Lofgren. We have been fans for over 30 years! Loved his new acoustic music and the oldies. Great show!
Wow! Incredibly talented, engaging, personable! Such a fun and surprising evening! Up close and personal.
Greeat show. Mils Lofgren continues to amaze and entertain.
Fabulous concert by a great musician and his family. The Birchmere is an excellent musical venue.
Nils Lofgren is a master of the guitar and charming as well. Particularly fun in an intimate setting. Wish I could have attended multiple shows.
Number 1 guitar player in the world preformed with his multi talented brothers. Loved e
We like Nils, always enjoyed his shows, but this is the first time he mentioned politics, ALL musicians need to leave politics out and sing. That is why we go to shows, to just be able to be immersed in the music and the excitement surrounding the venue.
Terrific show. Nice to see Nils and his brothers take the stage and feature his work. Greg Varlotta is also great. Great opportunity to see a master at work.
Nils is a fantastic talent and does an excellent job of relating to the audience. .
Bruce Springsteen once introduced Nils as the world's most overqualified second guitarist. That was an understatement. Nils makes a terrific contribution to the E Street Band, but if you've never seen him perform one of his own shows, you will never know how good he really is.
Nils was thrilling to hear. His guitar riffs were terrific and his singing very musical. I wanted to get up and dance. He is a fabulous musician. He even plays the harp!
Back last November I had the extreme pleasure of seeing Nils Lofgren in concert for the first time. It was an interesting and intimate affair at the Talking Stick Resort in Scottsdale, AZ. CLICK HERE to read my review of the concert. I described his work that night as "true genius." When I say true genius, I mean something that alters the way you look at things, appreciate life and especially the talents of others.... what a human being is capable of. From Nils Lofgren, this true genius came in the form of music, live music. Well, when I heard he was coming back this year I bought my tickets the first day and I am happy that I did. Last year Nils choreographed a show of contrasts, a mixture of intensities and an interplay between soft harmonic acoustic guitar work and a firestorm of electric fury. The entire show was pure, authentic, flawless entertainment. I remember, throughout the show, I found myself with a constant smile on my face, the kind that hurts because it last so long. Well, this year Nils changed things up but not to far. I again found myself with that smile on my face. He still shared the stage with the incredibly talented Greg Varlotta and he still played many of his classic songs starting off with “Too Many Miles" on the Harp and electric guitar. Then he put the electric away and melted into his acoustic set which included many of my favorites: "Rusty Gun," "Goin Back, "I Came to Dance," and "Keith Don't Go." "Shine Silently," "New Holes in Old Shoes," "Black Books," "Girl In Motion" and "You." In it's own way, this mostly acoustic concert was as good as last year's. It's like listening to your best friend play for you in your living room. An extremely talented best friend. Nils Lofgren is a Baby Boomer, just like us, and it’s unfortunate that he has been overlooked for the talent and creativity he has brought to the music of our generation. Sure, he rocked us down to our souls with Bruce Springsteen, but it is in his solo work that you find the most incredible songwriter, vocalist, guitarist and musical artist. Even at the age of 64, you could tell that this was the same kid that, on his 19th birthday, opened up for Jimi Hendrix in concert. He has been on the road over 45 years. You would never guess. There's no ego in Nils. There's also no arrogance you would expect from someone who has performed in front of millions of fans. There no pretentiousness and no masquerade. There's just a guy who knows how to play the hell out of a guitar and enjoys every minute of it. In an interview a few years back he stated: "I've just always done what I wanted." Thank Goodness for that !! I hope next year he wants to hit the road again with a full band and strap on his Fender Strats. I, for one, would really like to feel the electric intensity and fire he can generate one more time. Interestingly enough, after this concert I had the chance to meet Nils and chat. He has a huge presence despite his diminutive size. Even without a guitar in his hands you know this man loves music and he understands it in a way that few too performers do. During our conversation I told him that I wished I understood music the way he did. He looked right at me and said: "If you love the music then you understand it."
One of the best shows I've seen!!! See Nils if you can- you will be so glad you did!
Nils presented music in an unadulterated way. Music, his music, was the focus and it never waivered. No attitude of not wanting to be there but true showman who gave the audience simply what they came for. Good music, good entertainment, old school in the very best sense of small venues.
Nils was awesome.... he has great stories and plays with a lot of energy. Would definitely attend again. The facilities were great.
Nils Lofgren is still the best. He can really play guitar, great acoustic and electric stuff. Talked to audience sharing song insights and background. Spent time afterward giving pictures and autographs. Truly a class act in rock and roll. Well worth the money.
The most talented guitarist I have seen since SRV. I won't get into technical details, but he did things I have never seen before. Also has a very enjoyable voice and is a great story teller. He obviously was enjoying himself up there. Nils Lofgren is one of the most talented performers I have ever seen. Too bad the place was only half-full for a RRHOFer.
