Shows are slowly opening where I live. This month it's been outdoor shows only, bars with patios, etc. Next month indoor club shows will be offered. Nothing interesting announced yet. My last show was about 17 months ago. I took my then 18 yr old daughter to see Zepperella. I wanted her to experience Led Zeppelin music of course. Dad's favorite band. I also wanted her to see women dressed in a classy way, playing instruments, singing without a bunch of back up singers and strippers and all that excess shit that so many pop artists deliver. Just 4 women playing their own instrument backing each other up risking a lot delivering 2 hours of LZ covers. There are way too many members of the He-Man Women Haters Club out there so they really do risk a lot. Now my daughter said if she was going she would only go if we were front row so we were like 12th in line when we got there and stood front and center for the show. A couple of the songs were flat but for the most part it was a kick ass show. My daughter knows a little more about Led Zeppelin. Her one complaint, their songs are too long. High comedy. I said yah you are used to 2 minutes and 30 seconds of radio pop. This is a little different.

It's been so long ago I can't remember the last one
I've got a few that have been rescheduled to 2022
Porridge Radio is one of them
Gigs still feel a bit unreal but looking forward to getting involved again

"Her one complaint, their songs are too long"Today's youth, eh? I worked hard on exposing my son (now 26) to what I consider to be quality music from the 60s and 70s I was a little concerned, however, when he announced around the age of 16, that he had gotten into the Grateful Dead

Most of us here are the wrong side of 50 with the exception of young Smog, I think...
