Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted May 8, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 I will more than likely be attending both the 5/10 DC and 5/14 Baltimore JK Band shows. The first one was fun and I would expect these to be the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodpile Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 I'm thinking of heading down since the price is right and its only about 30mins from the homestead. I dont think The Senator Theater will be most ideal place to see a show,in fact I've never even heard of a band playing there before.For those who have never been there its a vintage movie theater that has fallen on hard times lately,I was last there when the original Star Wars movies were re-released in the late 90's.Its configured with seats as a movie theater,much like the State Theater in York or the Keswick from NYE a couple of years ago.

Actually these are my favorite types of venues. The art deco former movie theaters are classics as they wreak with character and vibes of yesteryear.

I think that was the last time I was at the Senator myself... with you.... when Star Wars was out playing... Parking around that place is a bitch, just so y'all know, and it's not in the BEST part of town, so lock up when you leave your vehicle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP Supplicated Velvet Thunder Posted May 13, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 we are definitely coming up for this! we live in SC, but will be in Richmond to get a cargo carrier for the top of our car from my brother for summer tour, and though I thought we wouldn't be able to make it, miracles occurred and we will be there in the front per usual hope to see some familiar faces, and if anyone has a spot on their floor for us to crash, we'd appreciate it!

Advisory Board Herdygerdy Posted May 15, 2010 Advisory Board Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 So..... I am just comming back from this.....er..... show.... I'm not gonna post what I really think about the John K Band because I know most of you all can't handle anything other then "JK is God",.. I will say their keyboard player was fantastic, and that I enjoyed a few of the songs they played as a whole, and JK did tear up a few tunes, (in a good way of course), but that's about all you're gonna get out of me.... Now the band following them... The Wharf Rats... Wow... what a true hunk of shit that was! Apparently they are scheduled to play 3 sets... I left after 3 songs... hurt my ears SO much... and I wasn't the only one leaving after 3 songs... there were a few other people following us right out the door... To each their own with their own musical tastes, likes and dislikes, but wow... I think any high school Grateful Dead garage band could and would do better then what the Wharf Rats did... I should of known better when I found out they were a local Baltimore Grateful Dead cover band who have been around for a while................and yet I never heard of them before.. If you don't believe me, then by all means go see for yourself and then you can make your own statements.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted May 15, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 I enjoyed the JK part of the show. I would be nicer than Herdy and say I spent most of the Wharf Rats show outside because I had some friends to catch up with and left early because I was tired.

Peace, Rob I'm sorry to say that my wife and I did not meet anyone from the forum.Had I known there was a sighting to be reported I would have made it clear who I was.BUT right after JK's set we had to leave because our youngest was sick at his friends and we were 2 hrs. from home.I agree with Herdy it was only ok. John was John and that is why I went. And the keyboard player was good.John was nice and signed a poster for me.All in all it was ok but the strom to get there was CRAZY!!!!We will be at both Brooklyn,Penns Peak,Mass,both Mann center and both Nokia shows.Seems like alot of you bailed on Furthur but if any of you decide to go,lets get together and talk some music.

JK Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 John K Band setlist from 5/14/10 @ the Senator Theater in Baltimore, MD: 2001 (Thus Spoke Zarathustra) Nobody Told Me Seen Love Feel Like Dynamite Cleaning Windows The Business Suzy Greenberg Page 43 Harder They Come What's Become of Mary Sister Smiles How Sweet It Is This band is about picking up where I left off when DSO stopped being a Tuesday night house-band/side-project (yes, DSO was originally a "side-project") and became a full-time touring band... Seen Love, What's Become of Mary, & Sister Smiles are Hairball Willie songs from the early/mid 90's... I used to cover Phish songs in that time period as well, when Phish was still playing smaller places than DSO is now... I have another 6-8 "old" original songs to work up with this gang and then get started on some new songs. Thanks, everyone! We had a great time!

I danced as along as I could because its the polite thing to do and they deserved a bit of enthusiasm as everyone but their friends left the building after JK. We really enjoyed seeing John play the fiddle with them even though it looked to be a bit of a struggle to play with a band that wasn't exactly at his level of musicianship. Katy made their "drums" worth listening to We saw their setlist and it was a page and a half long.... we left because we were tired and had a long drive home the next day. I am pretty sure we have been incredibly spoiled, musically speaking, by DSO, and I don't think any GD cover band could ever "take me there".... they are just covering the music not letting it move them, and as far as I have heard, DSO is the only band letting GD music move through them like the ear electricity it is.... and thank all that is good for THAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
