photo365 – Day 235

This was a show I was looking forward to all season and he did not disappoint! He was constantly in motion with an agility of someone 20+ years his junior.

Despite a few too many ‘F-bomb’s from the stage for a family-friendly venue and embarrassingly bad behavior of some obviously drunk audience members this was a very enjoyable show. I would see him again in a heart beat!

Sadly, yet another ‘no real cameras’ show (Seriously? WHY?) so my shots are poor.

photo365 – Day 229

I’ve seen Lyle 3 times, twice in the ‘Large Band’ formation. I prefer the large band for its greater depth of sound, broader dynamic range and diversity of tonal palette. During the course of the 2.5 hour show each of the 13 band members were highlighted to demonstrate their virtuosity. His wry humor, including an interaction with a sleepy 8 year old in the front row, was a delightful feature of this very entertaining and engaging show.

photo365 – Day 227

This is the second time I’ve seen him and he has grown as a performer. They performed ‘The Devil came up to Boston‘ and I was rolling in the aisle!
Because the series is family friendly they replaced the ‘harsh language’ with a whistle and it was hysterical! You can see a video of the original song in all it’s colorful language glory on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWVcIn7Q4Cc

photo365 – Day 226

This is Andrew Trube of JJ Grey & Mofros band illustrating an improper technique. He was swinging the instrument around by the cable and then slamming it down on the cymbals. I don’t think this is covered in his warranty.

photo365 – Day 221

My mojo was definatetly not workin’ yesterday.
It started at about 6:30AM when the line to set down your blankets for the show was released early while I was having a conversation with one of the series bigwigs. I lost my normal spot to a ‘runner’.

I’ve been looking foward to this show all season and was very disapointed by a strict ‘no pro cameras’ policy. My backup camera, the Canon SX230 HS, doesn’t do well in very low light and the lighting for this show was much dimmer than usual.

This shot is the best of an embarrasingly bad set of shots from this show.
