I'm Off To See Bobby Keys!
Posted by: tatters ()
Date: October 18, 2012 21:11

Anyone catch him last night in Cleveland? I'm going tonight in Detroit. If anyone's going, I'm the guy in the long-sleeve maroon t-shirt with the "tumbling" dice on it. Say "hello." I'll buy you a beer (just as long as it's PBR or some cheap shit like that).

Have fun. He wrote a fun book if you haven't read it.
Mention the golf ball in Keith Richards Eggs Benedict if you talk to him

I have not read it, but I'll pick one up tonight. He's signing them at the meet and greet table after the show.

Phenomenal. It was a Stones fan's dream. The place was not particularly crowded, maybe 125 people in a room that can hold 300. During Bitch and Brown Sugar, my wife and I actually had room to dance right in front of the stage. When he played CYHMK, I stood directly in front of him. The bell of his sax, which has his name engraved on it, was no more than four feet from my face. I got my Stones fix, and I got it for $25. I don't need to see the Stones again. I'm good.

He is playing here in Buffalo tomorrow in a small, ratty blues bar. Maybe holds 100-150 people.

If anyone lives within a two-hour drive of any of his shows, you have to go see him. His band is one of the best I've ever seen. They will blow your mind.

I went to sneak a peak at the setlist before the show, and the "roadie" who was taping them to the floor shooed me away. "Uh uh! No way! No opening your presents early! It's better if it's a surprise! Go away!" I told him I couldn't read it anyway. It was upside down. The "roadie" turned out to be Dan! LOL

Steve Gorman – drums

Read the book. He goes into detail...especially about needing advances.

I did pick up a copy of Bobby's book btw. I'll start in on it as soon as I finish the Pete Townshend book. I asked Bobby to make it out "To Nick and Marlene."

"Dick?"
"No. NICK .... with an 'N' .... Nick and Marlene.
"Mick?"

It would have been incredibly rude to correct him a second time. He's understandably a little deaf. It's signed, "To Mick and Marlene."
