He's Touring!



Notice the last stop? that's only about 2.5 hours from here!! *G*

He was at the House of Blues in Chicago on his birthday 2 weeks ago and I couldn't get anyone to go with me!! I was so mad. They were cheap tickets also, only about $35.00.

BTW Ticky--thanks for starting a new thread for him but you all might be real sorry you did!

You might come out for this one Willie!! I bet I can get WT to go too!! *G* If this casino is anything like Lincoln City was, it's going to be an incredible concert!!!

I'm in Jonny Lang mode today--he's playing on the ipod and since Ticky started this thread, I thought I would add some of my fave "stuff".

Start with some pretty good pics.

This one is one of my faves. Very hot me thinks!!






He is very expressive when he plays. Check out these facial expressions.

Then there is that voice!!! OMG!!!!! It does things to me that I cannot explain!!

And he was in Blues Brothers 2000 at about 1:40 in this video. A skinny 17 year old kid.

Sorry if I'm boring anyone here, but I am very passionate about this guy. Have been since the first time I heard Lie To Me on the radio about 15 years ago, when he was just a baby!! He has grown into quite the young man.

I agree completely Willie. I love Jonny. I have a friend who says she's known him for years and has pictures, but Im still waiting for her to show me (she worked at a local radio station for about 7 years and met a lot of people) I'll let you know if she actually comes through!!

Lang is without doubt, one of the best of the modern crop of guitarists. Didn't he and Mayer hit the scene about the same time?

Lang makes NO PRETENSE about his style being heavily influenced by SRV. I have nothing but admiration for him.

Only saw him once briefly at Crossroads 2004. He didn't hang around for the performances on Sunday. Played on the stage between the Vendor's Building and the "museum" where all the guitars being auctioned were exhibited.

Personally, I prefer to listen to Lang above Mayer...but respect them both greatly!

The faces he makes while playing remind me of an Eagles that we all know and love, huh Ticky

[ticky]

yep *G*
