Widespread Panic Las Vegas Concert reviews
WSP is real deal
The venue lines to get in made a lot of people miss most of first sets the first two nights. Giddens security built some long lines with their slow procedures of individual wands and pat downs. I understand the need for security but maybe a few additional ways to get in would have been helpful. Or add personnel to assist. Once the band starts, WP is one of the greatest bands to explode with covers and originals in a style that can be categorized as high performance rock and roll. JB’s voice has a range from growl to beautiful notes that tickle ears. Jimmy Herring shreds. And the bass and drums backbone are so tight that it’s easy to get lost in the pocket with them. Jo Jo on keys delivers song after song of high energy out of their songbook which has to be nearing 600 plus songs to choose from. Incredible live performance defines this band. All 3 nights were impressive but as the t shirts say—“never miss a Sunday show”…..i must retort—-“never miss any show” and you will be Satisfied…..
