Nice evening. Watched about 40 minutes of the debate, then had sushi w my old bass player.

We hooked up with Norm at the club around 8:30. Hung outside. Trev went on a bit before 9 and was terrific playing wise and stage presence wise. Takes after his old man. Very cool seeing so many Lukes on the guitar rack, and Trevs that actually say Trev on the headstock.

Chatted with BP and Brian a bit before Luke went on. Man Sterling looks like a different guy! Seems like only 10-12 years are seperating him and brian now.

I wish I was more familiar w Lukes material. He played mostly his red luke and his dargie. Also pulled out an ovation for a tune...Hey why not just a Luke with a piezo?? :confused:

Some great moments were his long windy slow burning solo, his steely dan sounding cut from his new one, so what by miles davis, party in simons pants, and the tune he did with Trev.

Actually the hug they did on stage when Luke called him up was one of the great moments in recent concert going for me. Not sure if Norm captured that moment but it was a real tear jerker.

Luke also played a tune the guy sitting next to me said was from the 3rd toto album and kind of dedicated it to his ex-wife who was there with some family i think.

He also showed lots of love for sterling, brian, and Jeff porcaro.

Thanks for a great time Luke! Left at midnight with Luke playing his bahama BFR.

Alright stop the political crap now., Seiously. Please edit your posts. THis is a haven from that suff. I also get tired of cliche wielding soundbites.

It was a great show dont ruin it with individual political perspecitve. KB do you remember when luke said thinks are messed up he let you know where he stood but said "I aint sany nothing...I willl piss off half the audience no matter where I stand" That was coaching from me al long time ago. I hate getting my pol.itical ideals and voting instruction s from actors and rock stars.

It really was a great show and I had a great time. Easily worth the 8 hour drives each way. I did miss the moment that Kieth referred to. But here are some other pics.

Trev Right before showtime

Now on to the real topic of interest:
Which color guitars did Luke Play
Mainly Rad Red
Next was the Dargie
Blue Dawn made an appearance. (No Photos)
I thought it was a BFR but looking at the picture it looks like the 20th SiLO Luke Hybrid

Oh! The Camera was zoomed in from afar. Shutter Priority at 1/100 sec and ISO 400 setting. No flash.

Great pics norm. That one of Trev is uber cool. Taken just before Trev hit the stage and I was going up to check out all the Lukes and norm snapped into action. So many Lukes So little time!
