I've loved this guy's stuff since I was a teenager, yet I've never seen him in concert, until this Monday night!

My wife & I have great seats in an intimate theater setting...sure hope he's great!

    BF:
    The wife and myself finally caught his show 15 months ago. First rate sound, excellent harmonies, and most of all he's having a great time every night.

    Yes, both live years ago, and some of his latest concert DVD's. He hasn't lost a thing.

    Terrific concert!

    Everything I'd hoped it would be.

    James was in top form - he's about 62! - and can still sing every note! Amazing! The band was great, James' interaction with the audience was fun and engaging.

    Just a great concert and well worth the coin. It's not every day you get to see a legend.

    LOL... It's not like he's Pavarotti or anything...

    Know what you mean tho... Few years ago I saw him perform at our local outdoor pavillion. Sounded very much the same as the first time I spun Mud Slide Slim eons ago. Same clear, effortless quality...

    Glad you enjoyed him.
    More later,
    Tour...

    Wow...

    I am suprised to read your reviews.

    I took my wife to see him about three years ago and it was so bad we left half way through.
