Wartypig Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Saw and photographed Robert Cray on Saturday and was totally blown away...The best gig I've ever attended (and that includes Rush,Zeppelin,Floyd, etc)...No fancy lightshow,pyro,or gimmicks....Just pure musical genius ...I was mesmerised till the very last note .

driventotheedge Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Saw him with Stevie Ray in '89. He was quite good but I liked SRV better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My two top performances: Candlebox on this last tour was amazing (i know but they are great live), and SRV in about '84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Hiatt opened after parachuting in (very cool!!), SRV was 2nd and Cray was last. SRV should've headlined IMO. He was touring to support In Step. I consider myself VERY fortunate to have seen him once. So very cool that you saw him that many times. A true master.
