sparquelito Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 My wife and I have tickets to see Sweet Baby James at the Orion Amphitheater this evening. I clicked on their website this morning to look at the show start time and everything, and realized the show was postponed until 22 August. A little more digging around on the inter-webs, and I found out why.https://www.upi.com/Entertainment_News/Music/2023/06/20/James-Taylor-postpones-shows-laryngitis/5741687266852/ Rest well, Mr. Taylor. We look forward to seeing you in late summer. Get better sir.🥲 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Pepper Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 Bummer. At least you will be seeing him in few months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) That is a bummer. I always wanted to see him but have not yet. I heard last week that Paul Simon had a weird thing happen..  he lost his hearing in one ear unexpectedly a month or so ago. We are all getting old and breaking down.  There are a bunch of older rockers these days…sad days coming.

Whitefang Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Wow. That sucks. Hope he does get better soon. At least soon enough to make that August date.  AND that it doesn't wind up like the time I had tickets for me and my wife to see Red Skelton. Sadly, he died two weeks before that show. Whitefang 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparquelito Posted August 23, 2023 Author Share Posted August 23, 2023 Just got home from his make-up show, here at The Orion Amphitheater. A wonderful concert. Great venue, expensive food and drink, and James and his band were really, really great. He's not 100% as far as his vocal powers, but the man is 75 years old. The crowd loved it. Everybody sang along, to nearly every song. 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you take that shot flying in your helo? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you had a good time Sparkey. Did you take that shot flying in your helo? No sir. I just dragged a generic image off the interwebs for that photo. I hung up my flying spurs many months ago, and gladly. Here's another generic shot, with a ppt. arrow to show where Beth and I sat yesterday evening.🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
