I'm wondering what kind of shows people are going to in their communities. If you feel inspired to post a youtube video of the performer(s) I'd love to see it! Also a great way to expose ourselves to new artists and music!
I was fortunate to see this artist play live last night in Victoria, BC. Wow! If she comes through your town/city I'd suggest checking it out. She is known as the Archival Song Keeper.
Thanks Floyd for the link. This isn't an artist I would have stumbled upon but wow! so great. His voice is beautiful, full of emotion and passion. Love it! I'll surf around looking for more.
Yes, Peia is an artist to been seen in person. Her live performance was spell bounding.
I'll post the next artist I see live. Hope you do the same! I'm thinking I'll be introduced to some great artists.
My most recent concert was the April ZZ Top show here in Victoria. Although not my video, this one must've been taken by someone a few rows in front of me!
SUCH A GOOD SHOW! (I am pretty sure I wasn't the only "PG Employee" there...)

ZZ always puts on a good show. I've seen them 3 times through the years. The song "Beer Drinkers" was always a crowd pleaser in our shows. As a 3 piece rock/country band, we did quite a bit of "Top".
As far as recent shows.... can't say I've been to a live show in recent years.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.com Add nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.
The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
They were pretty great to see! In the past, ZZ Top isn't a band I would go to a venue for.. but it was hard to pass up - they played in town, there was a "Groupon" with some great pricing, and my boyfriend absolutely loves them! (he loves their music & is inspired by their beards...)
I wish I could find a video of their "choreography" - you obviously wouldn't go to ZZ and expect to see some amazing dance moves, but I really got a kick out of the synchronized moves they had!
It has been a few years since I've been to a major concert, however I do go to a few smaller shows every year. We have an old movie theater here that has been converted to a music venue, acoustics are great and not a bad seat in the house. They mostly book blues acts. Last show I saw there was Angel Forrest, very well known for performing Janis Joplin songs, but I prefer her original material. Here is one:
Thanks for the post and darn it... Angel Forrest was just in town a few months ago. I was on the fence about going and ended up sitting the show out. Now with a recommendation I will make sure to catch her next time she is in town.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows® Today!
Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
