the mossy family
I had the pleasure of meeting the Mossy family last night at the Steve Hackett concert in Santa Ana. I'll post a review of the show when I get time. Even the warmup act (Tom Griesgraber) was excellent - the best stick player I've ever seen.
My "met moonies" list: Davin and Karen Keithie Vaxman and Mrs. Vax Rick Mossy and family plus I have a few friends who listen but never post. and I'm hoping to add Mailotron and Elric next month |

It was a real treat to meet you, Jim, and R. My only regret about the whole thing was that we didn't have more time. How was the private box?
I agree, Tom Griesgraber is a one talented musician (GrIse-grAber, long I and A, not grease-grabber as I thought ) What an instrument that stick is. My fave piece of his was the "Jungle". Amazing. Phil talked to him and bought all three cd's - the solo effort and two by Agent 22. Looking forward to giving them a listen. Website for anyone interested: http://www.thossounds.com/tomgriesgraber.html It was worth that long drive to Santa Ana and back in one day just to hear Steve and co. do the bits from Acolyte. When they started Hands of The Priestess, Part II, I thought I was going to pass out. Alot of pieces from the Bay of Kings too...really nice. (I'll defer to Jim and his excellent reviewing abilities at this point) Concert ended at what...midnight? So we started the trek back to LV because Phil had to work the next day. Missed the turn and ended up driving down the road to San Diego! Got on the right track back at Oceanside but it added alot of time to the trip. Finally rolled into LV at 7 am. See you at the next southern left coast gig, Jim. Let's organize it better next time and do dinner too. m |
