Calysta Cheyenne of Fortune’s Folly @ Ashland’s Brickroom (January 2020)

This was one of the last shows I saw before Covid hit in early 2020. Fortune’s Folly played their final show about a year ago in Eugene. Calysta is still performing. Her next gig in Ashland will be at Martino’s on Monday, December 1.

Australian Pink Floyd @ Britt earlier this month

Despite being limited by the size of the back of Britt’s stage, The Australian Pink Floyd Show featured maybe the best light show Britt has experienced. There were some rather unusual elements that I have never seen utilized before.

The above photo is from their rendition of “Goodbye Cruel World” which occurred just after “Another Brick in the Wall, Part 3” during which a red wall formed at the end via smoke and lighting.

All in all you were all just bricks in the wall.

Kansas @ Bi-Mart Amphitheater

I went to my first concert at the Jackson County Fair in 10 years last month. Speaking of firsts… Kansas was supposed to be my first concert way back in 1982 at the Cow Palace near San Francisco. However, the show was canceled so this was my first time seeing them, almost 43 years later.
