Steve Earle at the Royal Festival Hall

Steve Earle & The Dukes (and Duchesses) featuring Allison Moorer

Royal Festival Hall, 25 October 2011

Despite not being in the best of health I dragged myself to the Royal Festival Hall to catch Steve Earle and his band figuring that at least I had a seat and it always ends fairly early there. I'm really glad I did although I didn't make it through the encore but the two hours beforehand was certainly more than worth the effort.

Cadogan Hall, 15 October 2010

After last week seeing one of the original Byrds singing Eight Miles High in London, here I am exactly a week later seeing another of the original Byrds singing the exact same song. Last week it was of course David Crosby, together with his old pal Graham Nash, and this week I was lucky to see the bespectacled leader of The Byrds, Roger McGuinn himself.

For the past couple of years I've been lucky enough to catch Crosby, Stills & Nash at the Royal Albert Hall and each time has been a pretty amazing experience.
