Nelson is so knowledgable in the booth. I really like his direct approach and honesty. But I miss not having O'Neill in there for both his knowledge and his humor. |

Volpe pays homage to Rizzo for the HBP RBI.

It was outstanding. I was going to post a You Tube clip of Govt Mule in the Music Thread but I just haven't got around to it.  The Jason Bonham band was fun because it was all Zeppelin music and the fans loved it. The Japanese guitar player was great and he even looked like Jimmy Page. Gov't Mule was main attraction and didn't disappoint. They're terrific musicians and I think Warren Haynes is one of the most underrated guitarist in the business. He can play it all, rock, blues and some slide guitar thrown in. Their set was 2 1/2 hours long with a Pink Floyd tribute included. For the Floyd part of the show, they brought out another guitarist, a sax player and two female backup singers. Overall, one the best shows I've seen a long time. Glad you had a great time, CHI. I'm going to have to check out Gov't Mule, who I've heard of but not had a sample of their music yet. Thanks Rizz. Gov't Mule is a jam band so they're aren't for everyone but I'm a big fan of hard blues rock and that's what the Mule are. |

Great Chi. You've been getting to some good ones. Glad that Bonham keeps the spirit of Zep alive. Jason Bonham has been around. He used to have his own heavy metal band, was in Black Country Communion with Joe Bonamassa & Glenn Hughes (Deep Purple) and believe it or not he was the drummer of Foreigner for a while. He right now he's also the drummer Full Circle, Sammy Hagar's band, along with doing the Zeppelin thing. Smokin' Joe Bonamassa is from Upstate New York. When he was about 12 or 13 years old, we were living in Syracuse. He gave a lot of free concerts downtown on Fridays in the summer. It was obvious even then that he was something out of the ordinary. |

With all this music talk, I'm struggling to keep up with this game. What an implosion by Houston, the Yanks only have two hits in this inning.

My son and I are also talking about the latest round of college sports conference realignment. We should discuss this someday on our football thread. |
