What a great show. I only learned about Kirk a few months ago and he is already one of my favorite guitar players. From his interviews he seems like a great person with a multitude of good qualities.
Kirk is a Blues Monster! Great to see folks dancing, I can't listen to Kirk without involuntary movements too! I hope we are graced by Kirk Fletcher in Australia some time soon. Come on Joe B, bring him with you next tour.
Yah, Kirk just keeps setting the bar higher and higher. The whole band is just stellar. When I hear people complaining about how life isn't fair, I think of musicians like these, where there is such a tremendous disparity of their worth and what they are actually paid. These guys should all be millionaires, what with all of their talent, hard work, chops and dedication, etc. In these days of high tech, why cannot we lovers of good music contribute/donate to a website, from anywhere in the world, where the money goes directly TO musicians such as these? Bypass all the middle money grubber's, etc? It just does not get any better than this, IMHO. But then again, Kirk keeps surprising myself and all of my music lover friends. Fantastic stuff. As a player, this is a lifetimes worth of lessons! Thanks so much!!!!!
2 years later, I just came here after watching a video with Brett Papa interviewing him. He mentioned a go fund me page to support his upcoming Album... I won't link because it would probably be mistaken as spam by filters, but it's a chance to do just what you mentioned. As this is in the top of the comments, others might see it. These artists deserve support.

Man, this is just what a Working Club needs to hear and experience. Bringing the most awesome blues to ordinary people. I love that. Words get in the way of saying how much I resonate with this whole gig. Cudos to all the fine musicians, and Kirk himself. A true gentleman and amazing blues musician. This gig transcends even history in my school of thought. It's a complete blues education based on deep roots. Ancient spirits groove. Deepest respect and thanks. Great performances by the whole ensemble. Vibe intense. Hits me.
Kirk is a very versatile player. He feels equally at home playing gospel in his father's evangelical church in the US and at an Australian Communist Party blues do in the Antipodes. One of my favourites!
Seeing Kirk Friday night at Lizottes Newcastle. Beautifully shot by the way. Felt like I spent a night at the Workers. Thanks a lot. Yours In The Blues...
The 15 idiots who gave this a thumbs down are all probably guitar players who think they are too good for blues. I would put money on at least 12 of them are.
Farrrrr out Brussels Sprout. This is in my home country. Never knew Kirk Fletcher had toured. Love the signs on the walls. And the people dancing. Is this really at a workies'? And "Port" as in harbour port, or, Port Macquarie?
The Semaphore Workers Club, one of the oldest and finest seaside buildings in South Australia, is owned by Communists. They use it for the occasional branch meeting. Twice a week the local blues scene moves in and it goes off. Very few Communists are actually ever seen at the club.
Where does the opening number come from? My earliest memory is of Freddie King doing it. Also, I've never been able to nail it. You did! Thanks, I'm enjoying your playing immensely.
I love the stage , The BWIU now the CMFEU , The Communist Party, Musicians Union fo Australia working class roots here at this venue ...... Love the music 1 and a 2 and a yeah

Kirk is one if the best all round blues players ever!! Phrasing, dynamics, vibe, tone he's got it all. A truly polished player...
definetely my favorite modern blues player, his phrasing just sets him apart.

Wow he plays great it's exactly what I want to hear and he's a very special person
What a great show. I only learned about Kirk a few months ago and he is already one of my favorite guitar players. From his interviews he seems like a great person with a multitude of good qualities.
and a very nice guy
For the skill Kirk has, he has very little ego and no need to be in spotlight every time. It is so nice to listen to that type of laid back blues
Church Gospel background.
Kirk is a Blues Monster! Great to see folks dancing, I can't listen to Kirk without involuntary movements too! I hope we are graced by Kirk Fletcher in Australia some time soon. Come on Joe B, bring him with you next tour.
The set opened with Freddie King's spirit. Love these instrumentals! Great fun that people are moving there feet instead of just sitting there!

Kirks got the vibe, and the licks! Cheers from Guam...
Nothing beats a good old shuffle to start your set...
You know, the name of this theme?
@@Filomeno4215 it's side tracked, by Freddie King
Wow! Kirks feel is just out of this world!! I'm sorry to say I'm only just discovering him, but oh man am I ever impressed
I think I may have watched/listened to this 20+ times and it's still fab!
It DOES have an awesome quality of sound. 👌
Im Elder Anthony Williams I attended your dads church a few years back.
Ozzys be ready for Freddie!
Great video, Kirk is one of the best. Cheers from the Micronesia Blues Society, island of Guam.
We all know Kirk is amazing, but this seems like a super cool place to play

Are you Australian?

Kirk is The Real Deal! And if your drummer doesn’t know how to play a shuffle, or how to and when to set up a great fill, show them this video.

Such a KILLER show...good lord...kirk is the Fn MAN
A huge source of inspiration and licks for days! What a great show and great guy 👍👍👍👍👍

Kirk is fantastic, great phrasing and playing. The tone of that Telecaster is awesome.

@Dobie Dad Yeah, bet that's what got the thumbs down at least some of them, don't ya' think??
@Dobie Dad Well, it looks like they really know how to party at the Communists Workers Party!
thanks man - stone cold on the guitar this guy.
Good to see people up and dancing 👍
Agreed. And it's in my home country!
Love that melodic, guitar voicing......hits low, down, right down to my blues soul. Thanks for the video.
he can play, eh?
Some of the greatest blues players. Keep on bluesing!!!
people casually dancing to Kirk Fletcher's amazing playing. wish I was there
Great Bass solo at 39 min. This man can jam! Can't wait for the Blues Album with Josh Smith and Joe Bonamassa.
Josh smith is awesome to on a different level I find the other one you mentioned to be a bit of a knob.
WTF?!?! Great band fronted by Kirk 'I got this' Fletcher playing in front of a gifted few?
Oh MY what a treat.
Kirk is fantastic. Such a great player
Great video production - well captured performance of a fantastic guitar player
a fantastic guitar player indeed, man ... cheerio!
This makes me smile
it was great, thank you so much Kirk Fletcher
Every note swings, like BB King.
Fantastic musicianship! That key tickler likes to lay in the weeds
The guys just plain smoking it!! Hats off to this very tight foursome and no Marcus King overkill in any of his leads....very nice!!
simply GREAT a icon of blues playing
Your tone is killin' my brother!
Great player, excellent singer, seems like a nice guy too!

Jesus i new kirk could play but wow man hes awesome
Hes. Got that Hideaway sound that Clapton had on the beano album . Gréât blues tone
Fantastic! Great Kirk!
this guy is the real deal
Is that Sidetracked? Tinsley Ellis does a killer version of this ole' Freddie King song. But Kirk's tone and style is superb! Awesome Job.
Yes, FK's Sidetracked
The dancing gives this a David Lynch vibe
Where does the opening number come from? My earliest memory is of Freddie King doing it. Also, I've never been able to nail it. You did! Thanks, I'm enjoying your playing immensely.
The tune is classic "Sidetracked" played by the great Hollywood Fats and Anson Funderburgh.
Track list anyone?
This is what blues means to me
master telecaster blues excellent
That bass solo was fantastic
Kirk is the blues now.
He plays with the same flame with everybody just like Joe Bonamassa, Fab Thunderbirds, Chicago Living History and so on ...
Fletcher is the blues.
sublime
great blues guitar player 👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
What's the title of the last song?
Does someone know the name of the shuffle tune that starts at 26:16? I really want to find out the title. Thanks.
Did you find out? It’s called Ain’t No Way and it’s on Kirk’s album My Turn.😊
Was this show recorded for album if not it should be i want it .
absofuckinlutely aweSSSOMMEE
Is this what you may call "liquid fire"?
Damien Steele Scott with the Willie Weeks vibe! Nice solo!!!!
He should come to Brazil.
Anybody knows what Amp is he using here?...
The bassplayer and Kirk are smoking here
Stephan Bijl yes the drummer had a hard time with his left hand on the shuffle’s, surprised Kirk would allow that
Audio is good!
Very good!
the crowd was 230 or so
COOKIN!!
Pure taste
The bass solo @ 37:20
What is the name of that first shuffle?

Someone knows the set list for this concert?
Is it me or does the second song sound a bit like “I feel good’??
Anyone recognize the shuffle that starts at 26:15? I don't know the name of it, but it's awesome.
It's very similar to hideaway and to key to the highway
