Friday Nite with Yoyo Ma & Emanual Ax at Carnegie Hall, and The Marshall Tucker Band at B.B. Kings
On Friday, January 29th, The Marshall Tucker Band was in Town the same night that Yoyo Ma and Emanual Ax were performing at Carnegie Hall. I saw both. Yoyo Ma & Emanual Ax were great, but to my liking, the program could have used a Brahms sonata. The MT Band, Southern Rock’s best, just keeps getting better and better.
- This duo — artistically combining passion, precision, and thematic planning — is outright heavely.
- This is the view from one of the side second tier boxes at Carnegie Hall; we sat here (in Box 16).
- Emaual Ax is every bit as much a showman and virtuoso as Yoyo Ma … well almost … lol.
- Here we are at B.B. Kings on 42nd Street; this is where the MT Band is playing.
- As usual, I helped out back stage and with the sound.
- Doug Gray is the lead singer and leader of the pack. Doug is the sweetest, kindest man in the world.
- Marcus Henderson plays the flute, sax, and keyboard with equal agility and insanity.
- I took this picture of Rose, Doug, and Mom. I guess I should have used the flash, huh?
- This is Doug Gray and Terry Proctor; Terry taught me how to do this WordPress so I can report to you.
You do get around! Word press rocks. Was a friend of YoYo Ma’s first agent in Cambridge. cookbook looks yummy!
