Sparks will fly


Wow! What a great show at the Ikeda Theater in Mesa (Phoenix) last night! The Experience Hendrix 2010 tour rolled through and I was certainly not disappointed! High points included Living Colour's tear through "Crosstown Traffic", Doyle Bramhall II with David Hidalgo on "Who Knows", the first real magical moment of the night with Jonny Lang and Brad Whitford blowing through "Fire", Kenny Wayne Shepherd on "Voodoo Chile/Child", David Hidalgo and Cesar Rosas' almost punk-like version of "Can You See Me", then joined by Hubert Sumlin for "Killing Floor" (didn't really move the guitar hero worshippers but the people with soul certainly got it), and an incredibly ripping version of "Foxey Lady" with Joe Satriani backed by Living Colour (Satch and Vernon Reid trading solos?!?!). The show clocked in at a solid 3 hours (no intermission) and pretty much gave everyone their money's worth. www.notimewarp.com
