My First Concert Since Before the Global Shutdown: The Dead Daisies

 

I’ve only been waiting every day since March of 2020!!!!!!

 

It was great to finally be at a concert again.

 

Back where I belong.

 

I saw The Dead Daisies in Harrison, Ohio at The Blue Note Harrison.

 

I’ve seen them twice before but this one was different because it was a headline show (I saw them open for KISS two other times), and this time one of my favorite singers/bassists ever Glenn Hughes is now in the band.

 

They put out a great album called Holy Ground, which the set mostly consisted of, and also some other Dead Daisies songs, a Creedence Clearwater Revival song that the band covered a few years ago, and two Deep Purple songs from Glenn’s era of the band (both he and David Coverdale were the singers in Deep Purple at the same time during the 70s for 3 great albums and tours).

 

This was exactly what I needed.

 

I got fully vaccinated in April but this was REALLY the shot in the arm I needed.

 

Music is everything to me. It’s my passion and live music is something I crave.

 

I have many more concerts booked this year, but this was the perfect relaunch of my concert life.

 

Thank you Glenn Hughes, guitarist Doug Aldrich (thanks for the guitar pick!!), guitarist David Lowy, and drummer Tommy Clufetos for this awesome rock show.

 

More concerts and reviews to come!!

 

As Paul Newman said in The Color Of Money, “Hey, I’m back!!”
