Booche Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to the internet. My initial reaction to Phil and Bob bringing in the Jerry clone was way off. I am sorry. I was dead wrong. That was fucking awesome. Fucking awesome I say. I went in with decent expectations (knowing I would have a good time) and they were certainly blown away. It's beautiful to see that there is still a little Jerry in alot of us. Ya'll deserve high fives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freak By Night Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Oh man, I enjoyed that so much. I think almost everyone I know was there last night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoMack Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Glad to hear it rocked. Russo is the man - such a different experience hearing these guys play with a drummer that keeps the tempo moving forward nice and quick.... (no disrespect to those other two old fellows that I love, but Russo is quick.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AD Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Loved that drummer-dude was wearing a Maiden shirt. Thought the backup singers really filled in the vocals quite nicely. And the sound was amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Yes, that was a real treat. Just the perfect set of teasers and pleasant surprises, and while the sound might have been balanced out a little further back, there's nothing like being up at the rail. And man, does it ever look like Phil's having the time of his life up there (esp. during Caution ). And that bridge in Wharf Rat? Gold.

edger Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 A New Speedway Boogie>Warf Rat? That's awesome!! Now this is the inspiration I was looking for Glad to hear you all had a great time, and Booche I am especially glad to hear that your expectations were surpassed...I had an inkling that they might be. You're bang on about Russo...and I always find Chimenti to be a treat. I am soo excited for tonight and tomorrow night!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YearsAlongTheSea Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Great show last night. One hell of a round trip drive from Toronto and I'm exhausted and elated all at the same time. Highlights were definitely Bertha, Wharf Rat, Bobby's pink guitar and the jam into Help On The Way. I was shocked at how few people there were and how much room there was. Huge thanks to bONES for the ticket and company. Nice running into / meeting Boiler Rat too. Ottawa ain't all bad... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Not Bob Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 What in the world? Garcia's guitar was there? Fuck that was an amazing show. I was next to this gentleman for much of the show, it is a replica sculpture of Jerry's guitar that he made (non-playable). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSloth Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 I had such a good time. Took me a few songs to accept the fact I was just going to love it. So many songs stood out but for me the Wharf Rat was the apex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boiler rat Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Agreed on the Wharf Rat, that was so surreal. Dire Wolf was one I was hoping for so I loved it. My wife and I had an amazing time. The band was simply amazing, amazing, AMAZING! I love hanging out with all you Ottawa crowd, we've always had a good time and have been treated great every time. zero, thanks for the company on the ride up, it was great, even though you have the bladder the size of a pea. It was nice meeting some and running into so many people, too many to name but you are all awesome, each and every one of you. Nice to see you again bONES and nice to meet you YATS Dubious looking group there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.B.E Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Mind blown....thanks Ottawa, for a real good time!!! It was nice to see the people we did see and sorry to those we missed...I feel like I just stepped back into reality from a trip to 1970, the only thing missing from that show for me was PigPen. Direwolf and New Speedway Boogie were highlights for me. First time at bluesfest and I/we will be back for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
