 Tim O’S From the tour's website: A five city tour, featuring some of the best known and most respected figures in rock, blues has been set to celebrate the legacy and music of Jimi Hendrix next month. The tour launches October 16 at Washington's Constitution Hall. Experience Hendrix, LLC, the Hendrix family-owned company charged entrusted with preserving and protecting the legacy of Jimi Hendrix is the presenter of the tour and lends its name to the endeavor which runs through October 20th. Other tour stops include New York; Hampton Beach, NH; Atlantic City and Waterbury, CT. Featuring artists who will be performing music written by and associated with Jimi Hendrix include blues giant Buddy Guy, pedal steel innovator Robert Randolph, and contemporary guitar great Kenny Wayne Shepherd. Special guests include Robby Krieger, guitarist of the Doors, Rolling Stones veteran guitarist Mick Taylor and Hubert Sumlin, the Mississippi-born guitarist who worked with both Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters. Most remarkably, Mitch Mitchell (drums) and Billy Cox (bass), the same Jimi Hendrix Experience rhythm section that played behind Hendrix at Woodstock is the will be on hand for the Experience Hendrix tour dates as will Chris Layton and Tommy Shannon, a/k/a Double Trouble, the late Stevie Ray Vaughan's highly regarded rhythm section. Native American band Indigenous, Eric Gales, the Memphis guitarist who is heard on the Power of Soul Jimi Hendrix tribute album and Kenny Olson of Kid Rock's band are also part of the Experience Hendrix Tour. Guitar World's renowned music transcriber and Hendrix guitar instructor Andy Aledort will once again join the tour. Various combinations of these artists in performance are sure to make the concerts very special events for both new and veteran Hendrix fans. The new Experience Hendrix tour is an exciting prospect for Billy Cox whose history with Jimi Hendrix dates back to their days in the Army together. He commented, 'It's a thrill for me to play Jimi's music for audiences now as it was in the early 1960s. The Experience Hendrix tour just show you how timeless this music really is.' Janie Hendrix, CEO of Experience Hendrix noted, 'Everyday, we see how Jimi's musical legacy continues to transcend generational and cultural boundaries. This tour is our way to give live audiences a concert experience that reflects the genius of his unifying spirit.' Experience Hendrix LLC's director of catalog development John McDermott stated, 'As was the case when the idea behind touring Experience Hendrix was conceptualized some years back, we thought that a live presentation of the music that Jimi Hendrix created and which inspired him would be terrific means of conveying his continuing relevance to today's audiences.' The first Experience Hendrix Tour which also featured Guy, Shepherd, Sumlin, Gales, Double Trouble as well as Mitchell and Cox played sold out concert dates in San Francisco, Portland and Seattle in February of 2004, garnering rave reviews at the time and it is expected that, in the future, Experience Hendrix will make its way to other markets.

 Tim O’S Steve Winwood opened with an incredible non-stop 1 hour set that brought you through his early Spencer Davis work, Blind Faith, Traffic and Solo music. Great show by himself. Tom Petty was in great form as he returned to the town that launched his career. He reminisced how WBCN and the Big Mattress were the first radio station that started playing his American Girl release which then caught on across the country. Solid set with tons of energy. RIP TP Steve Winwood / Tom Petty / Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers Feb 06, 2021
 Tim O’S Had the pleasure of seeing the full original band on their 2nd album tour. Chrissie Hynde, James Honeyman-Scott, Pete Farndon, and Martin Chambers. Honeyman-Scott died in June of that year. Small venue an great show. Pretenders / Miles Vegas Feb 06, 2021
 Tim O’S Setlist that was linked is obviously wrong. This was Heart with the Wilson Sisters. Still sounding good Heart Feb 06, 2021
 Ric Kilmer Seattle area band Box of Daylight began as 3XO around 1991 (just as "grunge" was becoming popular nationally and internationally). It morphed briefly as Rainmaker (with their video "Dogs at Bay") before settling on the BOD name circa 1993. It disbanded in 1995 or early 1996. Box of Daylight Feb 06, 2021

 zimtrim Please don't tell others what their "obligations" are. You're not the site owner, Mr. Perfect. I've communicated with the site owner in the past and he does not have an attitude like you. The Police Feb 05, 2021
 1bgsky Well, the site targets those who actually were at these concerts. While certainly exceptions can be made, it's your obligation to double check that the info is correct, which in the case of the Police is very easy via the PoliceWiki. Cheers. The Police Feb 05, 2021

 zimtrim Not A The Police expert. I got the date flipped. It's 01/10/1981 not 10/01/1981 when they played MSG. The Police Feb 04, 2021
 1bgsky Free 6pm in-store performance. I bought a disposable camera for the occasion and took some pictures. Sean Lennon Feb 04, 2021
 1bgsky One of the 6 shows Lizzy had to play as a 4-piece band following Scott Gorham's collapse from exhaustion in Portugal earlier in the month. Thin Lizzy Feb 04, 2021
 1bgsky Went with a few class mates. We had decided to record the show and big Hellmann brother wore the recorder on his back under his jacket. The Gods of Concert Taping weren't smiling on us though. The cassette stopped early, the tape got flipped and we ended up with only a few seconds of the gig. However, the tiny bit we had did sound really good (we compared it to The Who at Swansea vinyl bootleg) one of us owned. Fischer-Z Feb 04, 2021
 1bgsky The Police were on tour in Europe in early October of 1981 & played a concert in Boeblingen, Germany on 01 October '81. Neither in 1980 nor in 1982 did they play at MSG in NYC on Oct. 1st, so it's a mystery how you ended up with this date. The Police Feb 04, 2021
 1bgsky Just over a year ago they played at the small Wartburg in Wiesbaden - now there's a gig I really should never have missed! - now they're playing at the largest indoor venue in the city. Quite a step up. Unfortunately, no recording of either of these gigs have ever surfaced. The Police Feb 04, 2021
