    J Geils Band can still rock the house!

    by Roseweed on 9/8/15India Point Park - Providence

    I've always loved the J Geils Band & have been to many of their concerts over the years, going back to the 70s. I'm NEVER disappointed! Love them, love their music! Peter Wolf has more energy in his pinky than I have in my whole body! Love him! New for us this time though was the venue... Fantastic! I've been to India Point Park many times as my son lives a few blocks away, but I couldn't imagine where they'd hold a concert! What a fantastic transformation! Watching this band under the stars, on a clear warm evening, with people on their boats in the bay listening too! The bar set up, the food vendors... It was ALL fantastic! The only draw back were the portalets! Hate those things, but I can't imagine any alternative. All in all, great job Providence! Very impressed!

    SMOKIN' HOT & FLAWLESS MUSIC!

    by jackielach48 on 9/8/15India Point Park - Providence

    The scene was an outdoor music festival Saturday night where all the old hippies schlepped their collapsable chairs and came out to see Peter Wolf & and company! It was on the waterfront and it was a cool and breezy night to mark the end of summer. The show started off with Ian Hunter and The Rant Band. For those of you who can't remember Ian Hunter, he was the front man for Mott the Hoople and delighted us with some new music and ended his set with "All the way from Memphis" and "All the Young Dudes" which left the audience wanting more old Hoople hits! This was an absolute treat to see this 76 year old rock legend still rockin' out audiences! While waiting for our headliner to set up, there were multiple vendors unlike most rock concerts, they offered a more gourmet style to fast food and plenty of alcohol for the crowd to partake. After we filled our stomachs,The J. Geils Band took to the stage and started off the set with "Sno-Cone". They continued with "Hard Drivin Man", "Just Can't Wait", "Where Did Our Love Go", "Detroit Breakdown" 'Homework" and on to a tribute to the Allman Bros Band! The audience was off their feet and dancing to some really great music! Peter Wolf was in rare form for a 63 year old and he never takes a break from entertaining his audience! He is still quite remarkable and as we found out, was just warming up! Next up, they went into their hits like "Sanctuary", "Freeze Frame", "Angel in a Centerfold" and then we watched Magic Dick play that harp like nobody can play! He wailed on 'Whammer Jammer", "Give it to Me" "Ain't Nothin But A House Party", "Lookin For A Love", and made that harmonica talk to the crowd! An outstanding display of perfection throughout 2 hours of playing a harp! This man is a born musician! Seth Justman on keyboards was also on top of his game giving a performance that simply amazed fans! Danny Klein on bass is still as great as he was 40 years ago! Tom Arey on drums gave us a a terrific display of keeping the Geils beat! Hold on here, we're missing the lead guitarist of the same name, J. Geils, who is no longer a member of the legendary band? Well, let's just say that his permanent replacement, Duke Levine, who I say is better than Geils on guitar, played his instrument as if he was in the band from the start! He gave us a grand performance! The night ended with "Where Did Our Love Go", Start All Over Again" and the last hit was Reputa the Buta's song, "Musta Got Lost", which ended the night with the crowd wishing the music would go on. Peter Wolf and the band stayed on stage to thank their fans for coming out and for many years of loyal support. To sum it all up, if you get a chance to see this show stopping band, make it a point!

    It was a fun night. the band was very high energy for a bunch of old guys! They played all their classics. These guys can still rock and sound great! The venue was pleasant, right by the river in Providence.

    Great Band in concert!!

    by sapl69 on 9/8/15India Point Park - Providence

    Band was amazing! Venue was great....could have been better organized and restrooms a bit closer. Was a pain to get a beer and NOT be able to leave the area to go back to our seats!!! That was a drag. The view is great with the boats and JGB was amazing.

    J Geils has still got it

    by WhatGuy on 9/7/15Maine State Pier - Portland

    I saw J Geils open for Bob Seger in Bangor not too long ago (less than a year, I think) and they were horrible. But I love these guys, so I bought a ticket for their Maine State Pier show and was rewarded. They were great! Right from the opening tune, a blues instrumental, you could tell they were On. From top to bottom and from beginning to end - fantastic.

    Premier Live Band Rocked The Pier!

    by Thackerville on 9/7/15Maine State Pier - Portland

    I have always wanted to see the J Geils Band, but AFAIK, they have never played Texas (my home)... I had given up any hope of seeing them .. J Geils simply does not play outside the East Coast, and Detroit/Cleveland, perhaps a rare Chicago appearance.. Basically if you are West of the Mississippi and South of the Mason-Dixon, J Geils will not show up in your city. so I jumped at the chance to catch J Geils in Maine, after a scheduled Boston trip coincided perfectly with the Maine appearance.. I was not disappointed.. they rocked from beginning to end, and played every song a reasonable fan could hope for.. Peter Wolf was his usual kinetic self, constantly in motion, hard to think he will be 70 years old in another 6 months.. Magic Dick demonstrated his Harmonica prowess all night, DK and Seth shined on Bass and Keyboards, respectively.. the band lived up to their billing as one of the greatest live bands in rock history.

    Still got it!!

    by Iscream on 9/7/15Tropicana Showroom - Atlantic City

    I have seen the J Geils Band many times. Starting at JFK Stadium, leading off for Lynyrd Skynyrd and Peter Frampton in 1977. They have always put on an ENERGY FILLED, JAM OUT, ROCKIN' SHOW. This time, at the Trop, they did not disappoint. The Band was on, and Peter Wolf still has his "PIPES"!!! They played all the favorites, and then some. A show for all ages.

    by Raggedygigi on 9/6/15Maine State Pier - Portland

    The jamming between the drummer, guitarist, and harmonica, along with Peter's energy had the Maine State Pier rocking all night. They were the best and the venue is great place for a concert!
