lerxt1990 Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 (edited) OK so up close I was to see this show. I very much enjoyed it. But sitting up close, or even watching on monitors, what continues to impress me is how these guys *care* about what theyre playing and how theyre playing. And what impressed me the most about the evening was.. Caravan. These guys, seasoned aging pros of hard rock from the 70s, went and out and played this hard edged, kick-ass song like no ones business. Young bucks, take note of how the old farts can take their chops and put them to work. F-ing wow. If this is the future of this band in the next few years, they are far, far from done. WOW. The look on their faces during this song said it all. Edited July 24, 2010 by lerxt1990 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The look on their faces during this song said it all. Amen to that. The other night in Camden you could just SEE it on their faces. Caravan as well as BU2B. The excitement was very visible during those two new songs and it showed. I was in amazement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shrek Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 I love those two new tunes, they sounded great at the Camden show. I can't wait for the new record to come out!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigalfan Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 (edited) Agreed! Caravan was fantastic live!! Looking foward to hearing it live again in less than a month. I was up close as well and I'm actually kinda pumped about sitting back a bit on my next visit for this tour. I know I missed a lot of 'the show' the first time. It'll be like experiencing a whole new gig! Edited July 24, 2010 by bigalfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree they are frar from done, this is their lfe from childhood and anyone that thinks they will just walk away and retire needs to think again.. Us old guys are not just going to lay down and quit, you young bucks take note and keep up... http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-sport033.gif I can't wait for the new release either and my Red Rocks show. I missed a lot of viewing at ABQ that I plan on seeing at RR. I was dancing to much, this time I'll try and be a standing and watching. Dang that is hard to do, I like to ROCK!!

byoungjr Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Agreed.... Caravan and BU2B rocked big time at Camden. They played them with such a high level of energy, despite the unbearable heat and humidity that night. Since the Vapor Trails tour I get the feeling they go out and play like that particular show may be their last. Someone else on these boards said they mail nothing in and I agree. They give 100% and I appreciate that and count myself lucky to be able to see them every chance I get. rocks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacob's ladder Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 I'm going tonight to Jones Beach. The excitement level is through the roof right now and I'm at work and it's only 10:30 am lol. I am very much looking forward to seeing 'caravan' one of my favourite songs they have released lately. I am in awe of how they bring their 'A' game every night- that's a lot of driving, setup, playing etc. It must be very tiring. These cats love to jam though.
