Glad you enjoyed the show, Jax. They are in St. Louis in Sept. Maybe I'll try again on the supposition that your experience was more representative than mine; could be one or both of us was having an off nite. John
Well, that'd be two off-nights for me, and if that's an off-night, I hope to have many more. Definitely give them another chance - I'll look for your response come September. Meanwhile, here's a vid to offset that 'slow' comment...when you hear this live, it knocks you back in your seat and you realize you've got a big stupid grin on your face that you didn't remember having when you walked in. The chemistry between the two of them is just addictive. I can understand the comment as it applies to some of their tunes, but not the bulk of the show. Certainly not to either show of theirs I've seen. I do think their newest CD is mostly slow material though, and that it could have used a better balance that way. I also had good seats in a good venue (same one both times). I've heard one or two of my favorite artists entirely ruined by a bad venue. Yes, and certainly by an off night. I hope you have a better experience of them next time.
