This brings back memories of visiting my sister in Paris in 1970. She took me to a party somewhere and I was out on a balcony looking at the city as this song was blasting on the stereo inside, and I distinctly remember one of my sister’s friends wailing on his air guitar and saying “Alvin Lee maannn.” It was a good time, and I was young!

I always remember a John Belushi quote with music like Ten Years After: “If it’s too loud, your too old.”

Just saw Carlos Santana at the brand new Thunder Valley Venue. Yes, the name of the facility is The Venue. Incredible sound system, and it is so well designed, there is probably not a bad seat in the house. While we we on the highest balcony, being in the center provided amazing sights, and almost perfect sound. Three very large screens provided closeness, and you could just look at the stage for the whole picture. Before the band began, they were showing all kinds of videos with music instruments and styles, players from around the world. Slowly but surely, the scenes morphed into a small slice of video from Woodstock, and Santana began Soul Sacrifice live, which he played at Woodstock. They didn’t stop between songs, going from one to another. After 5-8 songs, without stopping, they finally all stopped playing for a minute or two. The tickets were expensive, but we didn’t care. I saw Santana at Winterland in the 70’s. He just might be better today.
