Re: Return to Forever - 8/4

I just got back from seeing RTF earlier tonight. It was a really great show to say the least. Bela Fleck was pretty good too. I probably would have enjoyed both more if I was more familiar with both bands. That said RTF really smoked at times. Some parts were very jazzy and often showcased each members individual talents. The drummer, Lenny White, was probably the most restrained out of the bunch not going for the kill in a way other drummers would but that's a nice change actually since sometimes overplaying can just make things too crazy. That said he is still definitely a capable drummer just different than say Billy Cobham.

Actually, I'm going to see Jethro Tull on Friday. That should be a good show too. I wonder if I will run into any prog fans there.
