    I'm listening to "God" right now. "Standing at the crossroads trying to read the signs to tell me which way I should go to find the answer....."
    Political Correctness'.........defined

    "A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."

    I saw Derrick Trucks a bunch of times touring with the Allman Brothers 6+ years ago, amazing guitarist.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Guitarist Doyle Bramhall II
    Keyboardists Chris Stainton & Tim Carmon
    Bassist Willie Weeks
    Drummer Steve Jordan
    Backup singers Michelle John and Sharon White

    Robert Cray Band opened the show with about a half hour to 45 minute set, and then Robert also came out for the closing song Crossroads.

    It just doesn't get any better than a stage full of masters. What also made it really enjoyable was the sound technicians. It was loud without being torturous and everything stayed crystal clear. Well as crystal clear as an arena can be.

    The only problem with shows like this is it makes the inferior artist's shows seem that much worse.

    I've got to admit I'm still running on a bit of a high from this show.

    GOD I LOVE MUSIC!!!
