Spent my Wednesday night (19. Nov 25) with Mr. Joe Bonamassa, a blues guitarist I’ve been listening to for a long while. Had a great time with my youngest (37 YOA) daughter. I was surprised to learn his current keyboardist played with Stevie Ray Vaughn (last concert I went to with my oldest (45 YOA) daughter) and is in the Rock Hall of Fame with that band. Here’s a few photos. I’m a bit old school - prefer to watch concert vice run my phone constantly.

From the promo material for this tour (Fall 2025)…
“Joe Bonamassa is one of today's top live performers. His enthusiastic shows are one of the biggest parts of his career, and a favorite for music lovers worldwide. Hailed internationally as one of the greatest guitar players of his generation and cited by Guitar World Magazine as "the world's biggest blues guitarist", Bonamassa has almost single-handedly redefined the blues-rock genre and brought it into mainstream. Back by a stellar band of legendary musicians, the set list for this show will feature new songs alongside career-spanning favorites. By exceeding his own vertiginously high artistic goads, Bonamassa has shattered all expectations with 28 number 1 Billboard Blues Albums (more than any other artist in history). Bonamassa's career in the music industry has built steadily over the years and is only gaining more momentum.”
Very nice I went to the Linkin Park 2.0 show in sacramento with 11 friends. Gave away 9 $250 tickets too :<) was a fabulous show. I wore my Chester suicide awareness jersey. We were section 108 row a fantastic seats. This is the only video I took. I wanted to be present for the show and not watching it thru my phone. Was a fantastic show.
Mrs. BassCliff and I have seen Joe live. It was just before we left California, just after the Covid restrictions were lifted, the very first performance at The Greek when no masks were required.
Our seats were not nearly as close as Mr. @Lab4Us, but it was one heck of a show.
Joe Bonamassa was using Reese Wynans on keyboard for this gig also, but Michael Rhodes was on bass. It was a little smaller band because some of his crew had trouble traveling. Still, he always has an epic performance.
