Are you kidding me! I have absolutely no excuse for not having seen this before! That groove was so deep i could fill it with water and do laps! Perfection
Doyle is such a unique player, just a great interpreter of songs. His vocals and guitar phrasing that are perfectly suited to whatever he is performing.
Ya just gotta love this rough hewn brilliance. I can't get enough of it, forget polished overproduced rubbish. This is where music gets magical. Love Doyle gesturing to the sound guy to turn Gary up when he starts his solo, not only is that good natured but love also how they mix the song as they go. Good musos do that, they know how to adjust and adapt on tha fly. Still can't believe Doyle strings his guitar upside down! Urgh, wish I had this kinda talent.
I used to go see his Dad's weekly gig on Lowest Greenville in Dallas back in the early 90s. Damn it! I was surrounded by live music like that on a nightly basis back then. You don't run across that anymore. Time flies & then you die. . .
I can't get enough of Doyle Bramhall II or Gary Clark Jr. They are my favorite guitar guys. I just go nuts seeing them here playing together. It's just so freaking great it gives me goosebumps just looking at them.
This was the most fun I had a movie theatre last year. We brought the tickets for like $15 per person, and saw the entire concert with a bunch of others. They had blankets, martinis, and dinner. It was really amazing. :D I can't wait to do it again. You guys should do it if you can't go to the actual festival.
You got an excellent deal for $15!!! In my hometown I was thinking about seeing Duran Duran about 2 years ago...until I found out tickets were at least $95, I decided not to go. They were quite popular when I was in high school. I owned a couple of their albums.
Doyle, I hope you put out a live album from your most recent tour. I really enjoyed it and would love to buy a live recording - the Red Rocks show was one of the highlights my year.
I've been following Doyle for a long long time I met him in Austin Texas back in the early 80's I was playing at a festival with my band Blanco & Blues Underground when the Guiter player in my band introduced me to Doyle said they had played in the same band together and that he was a good Drummer & Singer I ask him to sit in and play some drums and sing something since I was the Drummer & Singer in the Band I could take a break because I had met this hot chick that I wanted to get with so I started our set then I brought him up on stage introduced him and went off stage to rap to that chick I get to that chicks table and before I could even strick up a conversation with the chick he began to sing I was very impressed I really love his vocal ability great Singer & Drummer I didn't end up with the chick that day but I did get to meet Doyle and the honor to hear him sing & play it wasn't guitar that day but a few years later I ran into him again in LA at Norm Rare Guitars and he was ripping it up on guitar he's also left handed but doesn't play a left handed guitar he plays a right handed guitar flip upside down and doesn't restring it the low E is on bottom and the high E is on top thats crazy.
About time the new/young guitarists got together to show the world that B&W can mesh together in the R&R realm.. Both you guys are opening up the world ! Many thanx !
Yeah, What's Renee got, Doyle? Hey, we don't make stupid lies about plastic surgery, Terry and I! Like, sure, Renee--Your eyes just went from hooded to non- because you're "happier now and more relaxed." Bawhaha.
¡Si! I had heard db2 for years with Fabulous Thunderbirds, Arc Angels and Clapton. But when I saw him live (several years ago with the Experience Hendrix tour) I was absolutely mesmerized. I've seen him close to a dozen times since. He and Mato Nanji stole the show IMHO. And interestingly, aside from Doyle's brilliant solo for 'Hear my Train a'Comin' ', they played every song together. I have a theory that it has something to do with how much time they have spent as 'rhythm' or '2nd' guitar. Anyone else have thoughts on that?
