The Cellar / I'm going to a live concert!

Guys, we bought tickets to an actual in-person live concert in July!

Not anybody I would normally go see, but I'm itching for a concert. Max Weinberg's Jukebox. Apparently he takes requests from the audience from a pre-approved list of 200 songs. The audience chooses the setlist. I knew that I knew the name, but had to refresh my memory of who he is.

There is a light at the end of this tunnel. A concert!

Blue Oyster Cult is supposed to be a few towns over on the 28th. I thought about going, but, then I thought "There will probably be other people there besides me.". And then shot the idea in the head.

They're all dead or ancient, anyway.

Every last one of them. Half the acts that I want to see are already dead. The rest have one foot in the grave.

That's a cool concert format-- the "jukebox"

I've often thought about doing something similar, but as a "live karaoke" .. which would be easy enough for me, as the drummer and not having to worry about keys and chords. 200 songs sounds like a good variety, that's quite a set list!

That is a pretty cool format.

apparently it's all the well know classic songs that everyone has ingrained in their DNA. Beatles, Stones, and stuff like that. Do a YouTube search for Max Weinberg Jukebox, and you will see entire concerts loaded. He encourages filming them. There's a big screen above the stage with the approved song list scrolling by.
