    Still Amazing After All These Years

    by Anonymous on 10/6/13Musical Instrument Museum - Phoenix

    Roger McGuinn is still kicking it at 71 years of age, long after most rock stars of his era have either died or retired. In his present shows, he showcases and explains his roots in folk and rock music from the early days, and presents a tasteful mix of of tunes from the various stages of his career. Guitar fans will love the classic jingle-jangle sound of the Rickenbacker 370/12 guitar, as well as his 12 and 7 string Martin acoustic guitars, as well as a couple of tunes on the Vega/Ode banjo. Now most music fans who were born after 1970 will probably not even know who Roger is, but those of us from that earlier era can help to clue them in, and perhaps bring them to a show, and see some real talent that does not rely on technology. This is about the closest thing any of us will ever see to a Byrds reunion, so go see Roger whenever he is playing in a city near you.

    Roger McGuinn still on a timesless flight.........

    by TommyPG on 9/24/12Mayo Civic Center Presentation Hall - Rochester

    Far exceeded my expectations. I caught my wife singing along. Roger changed his set list and the stories too. Wish I has written the songs down. Oh well. What a rich and wonderful mixture of old folk, Byrd favs, and originals. I've heard the Byrds at the Marigold Ballroom in Mpls. in 1966 The first time I attended a solo show was many years ago at the Guthrie in Mpls. and I think he opened for Waylon, if my memory serves me well. I've attended his shows in Clearwater, Tampa, Gainesville, and Sarasota when I lived in Florida. Saw him a few times in Minnesota in the last few years. His Rochester Mn. show was, by far, the most enjoyable of them all. He just gets better. He said he'd perform until he couldn't, so I'll keep going to his concerts until I can't. What a thrill.

    i'll remember this show FIFTY YEARS FROM NOW

    by misisip on 7/30/11Saenger Theatre Mobile - Mobile

    i wish i could tell Roger McGuinn in person this was the best concert i've ever been to. It was a small, but intimate crowd and the best way to explain just how cool this show was is to tell you it was like being at a "unplugged" or "storytellers" taping. We enjoyed you so much and I'll definitely buy tickets the next time you play anywhere near us.... Thankyou for such a special show-- my wife really enjoyed this birthday present... cheers

    Roger McGuinn still amazing

    by missysmp on 7/25/11Saenger Theatre Mobile - Mobile

    Roger presented his own personal history, combining it seamlessly with a history of music. His tutorial on the qualities of different stringed instruments and how the sound of a song is changed by the number of strings on a guitar was intriguing. He demonstrated that his virtuoso as a musician has only increased with age. Though the entire performance was enjoyable, I especially loved the numbers he played on his electric guitar, which had the "jingly jangly" sound I fell in love with as a young teen in the sixties.

    Awesome

    by tightywidey on 6/22/11Folly Theater - Kansas City

    To say I felt fortunate to see such an icon, in such a small intimate setting as the Folly Theatre in Kansas City, would be a total understatement. Most of the evening, it felt like I was like sitting in his front room, listening to the stories and the music of an amazing career. To know where music went from, for example, the Beatles forward, one must follow Roger McGuinn and learn to appreciate his immense contributions. Perhaps not one whose name is as recognizable as Clapton and a few others of the same era continue to be today, he is truly one of a kind, in his talent, the scope of his music and where it directed those who followed. If you get the chance, go see him!

    McGuinn

    by conductorman56 on 6/19/11Folly Theater - Kansas City

    This was the most amazing performance I have ever been privileged to witness. McGuinn is an amazing guitarist. If that weren't enough, to be in the presents of rock and roll history was truly an honor.

    McGuinn magnificent

    by Rafasfoil on 6/19/11Folly Theater - Kansas City

    The show and the setting were both incredible. An intimate setting to listen and learn about the history of music and the life of Roger McGuinn. Stories about his life and musical development were punctuated by musical interludes that were flawless and reminiscent of the sound he created. A delightful evening for all who appreciate the artistry of a true legend in the history of rock and roll.

    True Historian

    by liveon on 6/19/11Folly Theater - Kansas City

    To see Roger McGuinn so up close and personal was fabulous. Loved the stories but would have liked to hear him play more. He is such a talented artist and missed out on some tunes.

    Approximately two hours of listening to Roger perform songs from The Byrds, from the genesis of folk music, and from the first days of his career to today. He told lots of great stories about The Byrds and their contemporaries including Dylan, The Beatles, Baez, Joni Mitchell and many more. The intimate venue and respectful, appreciative audience helped make the experience completely enjoyable. Roger performed The Byrds' biggest hits, including My Back Pages, Turn, Turn, Turn, Eight Miles High, Mr. Tambourine Man and quite a few more. If I could have requested a song that was not included in the show, it would be Chimes of Freedom.

    One of the Best Concerts In my Life.

    by DeanoRef on 5/23/11Bethel Woods Center for the Arts - Bethel

    Roger was fantastic. It was especially interesting that he took the concepts of the history of folk music, his own history and his influences and wove them into a musical extravaganza. It was a real treat from beginning to end. The small intimate venue at the Bethel Woods Arts Center added to the atmosphere.

    Very good shows - seen him 3 times this year!

    by Jaakness on 5/11/11Bethel Woods Center for the Arts - Bethel

    Great guitarist & good vocalist. Good variety of songs and use of different guitars. Interseting sound bites between songs that create an interesting trip through time from his personal perspective with references to music types, theory and historical progression. It is very enjoyable and entertaining. My 22 year old son thought he was good! We'll go again when he is in the NY area.

    by susbrock on 5/9/11Bethel Woods Center for the Arts - Bethel

    Concert was much different than expected, with Roger McGuinn taking us on a musical journey with very interesting and entertaining dialogue chronicling his "Back Pages." He had an excellent delivery, both verbally and musically. Many of the songs were incomplete, used only as a reference, but thought this was great, as he was able to fit a lot in this way. He played for 140 minutes with no break. Were surprised that there was no break, but most likely it would have ruined the flow of the narrative. The venue was incredible- gorgeous building, intimate setting and amenities were all very comfortable and convenient.

    A bit short

    by Anonymous on 5/9/11Bethel Woods Center for the Arts - Bethel

    It was a good show but he played under 2 hours total. I was hoping to hear more.
