I was lucky enough to be able to see the show last night at The Greek Theatre in L.A. The Greek is an open theatre in Griffith Park with around a 5,700 seating capacity. Fabulous venue!! I had previously only seen RDB play several times in small venue's, so I was really looking forward to see them play on a big stage. Though I had thought the whole band would be playing, it was Rocco, Ryan and Dave. The set list: Bright Lights Dope Swing Low Nightingale Gift Colorful ITYTKM It was really a treat to hear Bright Lights again. It's a fantastic song. They sounded great on all of the other songs except for Colorful, which frankly sounded rather awful. Not sure, but it seemed like Rocco may have been having some guitar issues during it. I felt bad that only about 20% of the seats were full during their set since Sheryl Crow was the main draw. The people that were there seemed to enjoy them though!! Rocco, Ryan and Dave created a great big sound to fill up the larger venue, even if their actual physical presence looked a bit tiny on that big stage. All in all, it was a great night and I'm really glad we were able to be there. I like Sheryl Crow's music and she really put on a great show, not to mention she looked amazing. Hard to believe she's 46. Here are a couple pics of RDB:

Lostin24, what row were you in? I think I was just to the right of you. I was in Section B row G. I believe the Ironworks crew was to the right of me. Were you there Trevor? The guys were wonderful as always. There was some feedback on one of the songs.
I know the guy behind me was there for Sheryl Crow and his wife wanted him to go to the merchandise table with her and he said no that Rocco could sing and he wanted to stay and listen. So hopefully a new fan was born.

Thanks Lostin24 and GEG, it is always good to hear and see about their live performances but somehow only makes me feel so much further away ..... ok you probably couldn't get much further away but you know what I mean SNIPPETS!!!!! Glad you got to see the show too!! To bad we didn't meet. We need to work out a secret signal or wear a special t-shirt so we can recognize other dedicated fans
