ambeR Rubarth at NAU NYC
BTW: Yesterday working working on a new project with the "TK-421" guys, I watched him record tracks of Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar, Electric Bass, Mandolin and vocals. His talent isn't restricted to one style of music.
You can also see him talk about his music at:

For those of us who know Chuck Johnson from the world of rock and haven't gotten the opportunity to see him in the jazz realm, it's great to hear that his talent is as boundless as we had believed. He's an amazing talent. I've seen him play probably 100 or more times and every single time he takes the stage it still gives me chills.
Thanks for the great article!
I'm considering switching back to native WP, as Disqus isn't progressing as fast as I'd have liked... :-(

It's a "cheat", in that it won't have them indexed by search engines, but at least anyone who cares to read more comments on this post can easily do so...
Here is a direct link to the comments that are still stored on the Disqus server:

As for the acoustics, they were wonderful! They were wonderful for the Al Jarreau set as well.
I've been to the Beacon now four times in the past 13 months. The Dave Koz show was the only one with bad acoustics, so I'm blaming it entirely on the sound board / sound person.
The Allman Brothers Band was perfect. Alison Krauss and Union Station was excellent, with the sole exception of her microphone, which on occasion made her a little too loud relative to the band, when she powered through some high notes.
Thanks again for taking the time to let me (and everyone else!) know the names of these wonderful and talented musicians!
