The latest Concert You Attended

Truth. I do see a typo in my message. It should have said before he passes. The guy is still alive and kicking.

I'm glad you got to see him in concert, but, man, I'm sorry to here about the disappointment regarding the performance. Williams is up there in age, but one would hope he'd want to give it his all for his fans.

My wife and I saw Hank Williams Jr., back in June. The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band opened.

I'm glad we went but I didn't care for the opener, they were very jammy, and Bocephus very much underwhelmed. He bragged the whole set, didn't sing his major hits, shortened and/or changed the lyrics of the few he did, and seemed to have general disdain to be on stage. All that said at least I saw him live before he passed.

Too funny! This is exactly how I felt about going to see Bob Dylan not too long ago. Voice is shot, he didn't play a lot of what you might expect, and there was next to no interaction with the crowd, but it was still a fun experience and I'm glad that I got to see him before he's gone.

We also saw Alabama earlier this year. I'm not sure if I posted about it or not.

Lead singer is old, voice not great but not awful, but he still tried to put on a fun show. Pretty cool that you were able to catch Dylan. It's just about the experience and creating memories.

While I've seen Iron Maiden live twice, I caught Bruce Dickinson's solo tour last week and had a blast. His solo stuff is quite a bit different than when he's with Maiden - a lot more experimental but still hard rock.

Wasn't sure who the opener was going to be (it wasn't listed originally so I figured it would be a different local opening act on each date - which it was for us.) Little sleuthing via Instagram and learned who the opener was - and it was super local to me - Christopher Charles Romero. I even went down to our local music store and grabbed all of his CDs. Some good stuff.

That is awesome. I never had the opportunity to watch Maiden or Dickinson live. I'm sure it's an awesome experience.

In regards to Charles Romero I just listened to a few songs of his. I really liked What We Lost in the Fire. Good tune.

If they're up your alley, Maiden is such an amazing live experience. Totally worth going when they're around.

I told myself years ago to try and catch more bands that I haven't seen before, but kind of regretting not seeing them a few months ago when they were last in Denver.

And while I don't have any connection to him, thanks for checking out Romero!
