My wife and I caught 2 shows on the waterfront this weekend, Mike Gordon on Friday and the Derek Trucks Band on Sunday. Both were great, but I was especially blown away by Derek on guitar.

I realize I’m behind the times here, this guy has been wowing audiences since coming on the music scene as a 12-year-old guitar prodigy playing for the Allman Brothers Band. I have to say he was the best guitarist I’ve seen in years and I see 50+ bands a year. His singer had laryngitis, which I think put even more emphasis on the music. What a great show.

Here are two pics, one of Derek and Grace Potter, who came out and sang late in the show, and one of the beautiful sunset.

Got something to say?
