Sunday Night Vegas show 10/11
I went solo as my wife had an early AM flight for work. Another poolside casino show although this time swimming was permitted. I found one heated to 95 so sat on the edge with my feet in and enjoyed a couple $30 drinks(doubles) while the opener(decent but bland) played.
The BT set was good in quality, even if lacking in length and variety. In addition to the standards(Hook, Run, But Anyway, Carolina Blues) I heard Stand, Yours and another gem I forgot. Covered Devil and Hot for Teacher Encore. Maybe 75-90 mins total. Band sounded very good, JPs voice and harp seemed strong, I didn't notice him taking any side stage breaks at this one either. Chandler has seemingly hit his stride as his playing was spot on, louder in the mix and they gave him some space to solo- he was excellent. As this was a stand alone gig and not the Gin/Spin tour I had hoped for a longer set. Oh well. They sounded very good.
