                               LIVE ROCK CRITIC 31    May 31 2012   The “Good” Guys

 


                                                                          
Who was “Good” at the Billboard Awards Performance? The Red Hot Chilli Peppers were clear clean tight and energetic. I thoroughly enjoyed their performance even though I was not Red Hot Chilli Peppers fan in the past.


Z Z Top performed some old blues songs, and Derek Trucks helped them out in their mediocrity and boringness. Then Joe Bonamassa stepped up with his beautiful Gibson 335 and delivered a new dynamic blues solo which was absolutely fantastic and made the rest of them look absolutely unfantastic.

                                                                         

Donavan was very good playing and singing his classic tunes, John Melencamp accompanied him, not so good. Donavan had a large and elaborate orchestra which played well together.


Ordinarily a band such as Rooney would not merit a review. Among the failing bands this band was adequate. The vocals demonstrate a talent missing from many other bands. The cooperation the bass, drums and guitar and the keyboard works to create distinct compositions and performances which will hold the audience’s attention . There were excellent leads on keyboard and Les Paul. This is a young band, perhaps they will get to be very good.


Kid Rock performed November 28th 2011 “Live At The Artist’s Den”. Kid Rock provided incredible vocals and performed energetically and dynamically. The two guitar players were “Wow”. Kid Rock and the group which he had assembled worked together to provide excellent entertainment.
