Ray LaMontagne - Got the Stuff

This thread was right on time. I have the opportunity to go to see him in a 1,600 seat cathedral tonight (in Detroit) with my brother and a friend. I will report back after the show. I am really looking forward to it.

Lucky bastard! Look forward to hearing what you think.

I've got front row for his show in Detroit tonight. I really dig his stuff. Anyone know who's opening up for him tonight?

Missed him in Minneapolis, but here is a link to a review and a short post concert article on him. I really like "Trouble" as well as "Till the Sun Turns Black". I wanted to see the concert, but was unable to. Please cut and paste http at the start and html at the end.

Tristan Prettyman opened the show and that was my first time hearing her and her band. They sounded really nice with a laid back sound. She has a very nice voice.

Ray came on and from the first words he sang I knew I was in for a special performance. It was absolutely incredible. I loved his 2 cds already but this was something much more than I anticipated. He is an incredible artist and displays so much emotion. I don't think I have ever had goosebumps that many times during any show I have seen. His band was fantastic and the venue was perfect. I was very lucky to have seen his show. This was assigned seating including the mainfloor. About 5 songs into the show a couple got up and started dancing in front of the front row. One song later you couldn't see the rows anymore as people just crowded the main floor and danced and listened together. It was something special. If you have the chance don't miss him.
