A BIG GIGANTIC BUT:


The same day/night the following people are playing:

Teena Marie
Ray Parker, Jr.
Alexander O'Neal
Cherelle

and get this:

MICHAEL HENDERSON!!!


The Crossroads ticket was bought as a early birthday present to me but I am so thinking of cutting out early to catch the other show. What do you guys think?

i thought a few times about going to the crossroads festival. it looks fantastic.

the other show has got some good names (though remember your alexander o'neal experience), but the crossroads gig has some LEGENDARY names.

is TheAudience gonna be here for this? it's like a dream line-up for him!

Anxiety said:

Yeah, I have never seen Clapton live but Michael Henderson pretty much has disappeared off the face of the earth and I am a bigger fan of his than Clapton. Teena Marie for that matter.

Please don'r remind me of my Alex Baby experience.

Lothan said:

i'm not big on clapton either. there are a handful of his songs i love, but he's never really clicked with me as a live performer. my mom loves him.

i hear what you're saying, but buddy guy, bb king and willie nelson on the same bill would trump a lot of stuff as far as i'm concerned. and i'm not even that big of a willie nelson fan, but in a blues festival context, i bet he'd put on a really great show.

Anxiety said:

Damn your rational ass.

Lothan said:

Michael Henderson




I wish I could go.

PurpleCharm said:

See, you know exactly what I am talking about.

I wanna go just for him.

Lothan said:

Me too...I love me some Michael Henderson.

Fantastic lineup. Should be a great show.

Enjoy!

I wanna go ..... i wanna gooooo

Have a great time at the Crossroads Festival!

Lothan said:

Anxiety said:

I was trying to forget about this show.

There was even a plan to become a crackhead-in-training at the beginning of September so that I could lose all rational thought and justify going.

theAudience said:

"oops: yes sir. You should be coming here for it though.

Lothan said:

I seriously considered it and then a few things snapped me back to reality.
Just to say i'd seen Jeff Beck 3 times in the past couple of years.

You've gotta go check him out.
Last Crossroads Festival he didn't think his playing was up to par so he didn't allow his performances to be included on the DVD.

Dayum! I'm jealous.

theAudience said:

So many of those people I have never seen live and I am really looking forward to seeing Jeff Beck.


I am gonna miss Alex Baby asking where his "fucking"water is and in the same breath giving one up to Jesus.

GangstaFam said:

Come down. I'll buy you a ticket.

Lothan said:

You can see that "act" on almost any urban street corner in the U.S.

Lothan said:

If I was feeling better, I would. Thanks for thinkin' of me though.

I have had very limited exposure to Jeff Beck and only cuz my friend Lyle plays him on his internet show.

GangstaFam said:

Wel, it is 11 days away. Think about it.
