Just got back from seeing Ricky Scaggs and Bruce Hornsby.

It was an amazing show and several times I was simply blown away by the music. Very high energy performance, and they were quite obviously having a lot of fun playing it.

They did a version of “That’s Just the Way It Is” that was incredibly good. Well, actually everything they did was incredibly good.

And their backing band was amazing as well, with an excellent banjo player and a simply amazing fiddler, whose fiddle blended perfectly with Bruce Hornsby’s piano.

And to make it better, we inadvertently had perfect seats. We were towards the front and way off to the side, which meant that we had a perfect view of Bruce Hornsby’s hands on the piano keys.

But mostly–holy cow that was just an awesome show!
