Drom

I enjoyed the recently issued Mu'tet CD and grabbed at a chance to see Jeff play at a small club venue. Because Jeff has been with DMB since I saw my first DMB show (and I've seen 50), I've now seen Jeff play about as many times as any other musician, and he's one of my favorite musicians on the planet.

City Winery

I feel quite lucky to have seem him at least once, having missed - to my extreme chagrin - the tour with Elvis for The River in Reverse. What a huge influence on so much of the music played by the various bands covered on this blog. I was totally impressed at what a great showman he was, and he seemed to have a lot more inside him.
