Good morning all. What a show last night. This being my third of the tour, I can say that Mark’s playing was the best yet. His hands were navigating the neck a bit faster, not sure how much of that will be conveyed into the recording, but he seemed to pretty loose. Notably, particularly in his talking voice, he sounded a bit under the weather. Which is interesting to me because the best sounding show I went to last tour was one he was also under the weather for. Finally got an extra song, which was awesome. I had hoped for the MSG mystery song at soundcheck, but it didn’t happen.
This was my first trip to Red Rocks, but it will not be my last. What an incredible venue. The atmosphere, the people, the view...... The mix was the best of my three shows so far. Mark’s guitar was VERY heavy in the mix, just the way I like it. That is one of the reasons I miss the real amps being up close. You could feel them.
Perhaps the best part of the evening, however, was having the privilege of meeting Suprlinda and her charming sister! It is always fun to meet people you feel you have known for years. I truly hope our paths cross again!
Isn’t it fun to think about how many people’s lives have been intertwined by Mark’s music!
