Review: Waddy Wachtel Band 11/19/07

Hi Rockers-

I'm still trying to catch my breath after last night's fantastic gig at The Joint by the Waddy Wachtel Band. So..... This is going to be a short review.

I'd have to say the favorite song of the night was "Won't Get Fooled Again". The band just falls right into the energy of that song, and no one in the place can keep still - lots of hoots of appreciation from everyone. It was also a special treat to have Waddy sing his own song "High Maintenance Girlfriend." And Waddy's guitar solo on "Eight Miles High" made us all high. Waddy was running around all week doing assorted musical stuff, but when he hits the stage at The Joint the fire flies - truly Rockin' It for all of us.

Brett Tuggle, Phil Jones, Jamie Savko and Al Ortiz were also on fire. We're so lucky to have performers of their caliber burnin' for us on Monday nights. You just won't be able to see guys who've been recognized and employed by some of the top names in the music world "Come Together" and put on a show like this. Al flies in from Phoenix every Monday just to thrill us and play with his buddies. Lots of Rockin' love going around! And we all feel it.

I'd have to call last night Audience Appreciation Night. Despite the dense fog here in L.A., everyone came to the "Misty Mountain Hop" and rocked their socks off. So many smiling faces in the crowd having fun with the band. And the band felt it as well - talking to all of us and sharing their big warm smiles. Oh, it was delightfully warm! Yeah!
