This man is not only a miracle of playing and songwriting, he is the greatest gentleman you will ever have the privilege to meet. Add in his fellow genius of Rob Gjersoe on guitar and you'll never be the same. Robbie in any configuration is the best live performance you'll ever see.
I've seen him twice and I can attest to that. The first time was at a small place called "The Middle East" in Cambridge MA . You're right on the floor with the band there, it's a bar. After the show I got the chance to talk with him briefly and ask him about a song from "Let's Kill Saturday Night" called "Little King". I was thinking it was based on GWB, but he said it was an amalgam of privileged assholes he had known. We laughed and shook hands like I had run into an old friend.

So awesome... not just the music, but the lesson on how to pick up a dropped plectrum! Fantastic!
Robbie is high on my list of all-time fave musicians
I once paid this awesome musician with a fistfull of money orders! Remember that time Robbie? Centralia, IL - Roundhouse Winery
Anyone know the real date of the performance? It's at least 10 years before 2022.
PBS systems show an upload date of 01/15/2008. There's a more recent performance (2017) at ua-cam.com/video/jlk7t7fEfLM/v-deo.html.
I hate country but I love Roby!
Being a current resident of WI, I'm embarrassed by the host. Who does he think he is?
