Review and pictures from Neil Calandra

 Well this trip was the shortest for me. Four stops on the uptown 1train. Total commute time 12 minutes! My travel buddy again was Gary Miller. We set out for the club around 6:00 pm  Show time was 8:00. Had a great seat about 4 rows back at center stage.
Met up with Davy,Dave and Pete got to shoot the breeze with them for a bit this time..Again,they always make you feel at home. Thanks for the OJ Pete. Great bunch of Guys. First order of business was to make sure I told Pete Ii had nothing to do with that picture that was published. So Steve watch your back I am sure Mr. Thompson has something in mind for you :).

Show details: Top song for me tonight was  "Hannah". I Put my gear away and got to really listen to it this time. SWEET!!!!  Next up was Roads to Freedom which was also very good tonight. I  think Robin thought he was going to have a bad night.
Maybe the pressure of NYC and the XM radio broadcast but I can assure you that was not the case. He was in the groove and this was the best sounding show so far. The house was packed and the response was outstanding after every song.
I think i captured some of my best Trower shots to date tonight. This band just gets better and better at every gig.
