My wife & I took in the concert last night, Sunday, in the Star Arena, here in Spokane. We had terrific seats w/an unobstructed view. The setting was intimate and just first rate. The music was really great but the band was obviously a bit tired. The energy level was pretty low but when they got to the music, the band excelled. It being Sunday night, I'm guessing they'd played gigs on the previous Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, so they were pretty well spent.

But all in all, money well spent. If they're coming your way, I give it a big thumbs up and highly recommend you take in the show.

    I saw them in May here in Pittsburgh. They had their concert in bumf**k, WVA cancelled because the Fire Marshall wouldn't let them use the venue there. They got about a weeks notice and they moved the concert to Pittsburgh in the Mellon Arena, aka the Igloo. It was way to big a venue and they only sold 2,500 seats because of the short notice to move the concert.

    Tony Rice was the headliner with Allison Krauss and Union Station doing the vocals and backup. It was good, but they didn't do any of their own songs.

    What a wonderful show, we REALLY enjoyed the entire show... AK had a lot of friends in the crowd, we didn't expect to see any comedy but we got some... Band seemed really into the show, we couldn't have been any happier...
