Bruce Springsteen Tickets - Ticketmaster Letdown

As fans sat prepared and anxious as tickets went on sale today for Bruce Springsteen's We Take Care of Our Own tour, many were sent error messages or delayed as tickets were selling by the thousands. Many were left out in the cold only to learn they were the victims of professional ticket scalpers that orchestrated at least one crippling attack on Ticketmaster's online sales system. Bruce Springsteen posted a note to fans on his site also directing his message to Ticketmaster.

Music savvy New Yorkers were treated to to a rare treat at Michael Dorf’s City Winery on a cold January evening, hearing Alejandro Escovedo weave a narrative around the songs from his 2001 release, Man Under The Influence.  Interviewed on stage by Sirius radio DJ Dave Marsh, Escovedo spun tales of South Texas life along with memories of touring with Joe Ely and Townes Van Zandt.

 

Johnny Winter at BB Kings - White Heat On Broadway - Images and article by Bill Kelly

Saying Johnny Winter hit the stage at BB Kings may be a bit of an overstatement - Frail, recovering from hip surgery and years of substance abuse, Winter's physical presence belies the power still emanating from his guitar.  The old Texas stomp blues is still there, hands flying along frets almost as they did in the late 60's when Winter emerged as the new blues powerhouse, bringing the music of Muddy and John Lee roaring back to life.
