I appreciate the review! I’m a local, and I was stunned. It was so empty for Ziggy (Whut?) and when he sang “Stand up”, only around 10% of the people did. The dude is singing one of his dad’s iconic songs that (literally) asks people to stand up and they just sit there? It ain’t the opera, folks! The show itself was great, but like you, the crowd was a puzzle. At one point, we made our way down to better seats (we were in 409) and we finally got to a section with nobody in it! Amazing sitelines, perfect sound…nobody. They were all corporate booths, and even though they were empty, we got the bum’s rush from some young usherette. Whatcha gonna do? 🤷🏻♂️
Glad overall you had a great time and such a great ticket price to boot. Always someone else around to ruin a concert, it's always so annoying. I shared this in my Community, so expect thousands of views now, ha ha! That first album of theirs is awesome, I agree. I remember the band Wet Willie! P.S. Great rant at the end, and the handicapped story is hilarious. 😄😄😄
Geat review Glen i too didnt know Ziggy was opening until i got there what a treat im with you on all points absolutely killer show ttb is a must see the encore was over the top i was in secrion four as well and never made it to my seat my ticket cost $50 my parking spot was $35 wtf you neglected to mention the road closures for the molson indy which was a royal pain the rear however absolutely great show start to finish never even occured to me to sit down not once im usualy a hill guy at bud stage but the hill was closed for this one but no worries you cant stop a groove - great review pal
Wow..thank you so much..The road closures..there were three different road construction lane closures on my way home…took me forever..but it was worth it
Great review. Wish I could have been at that show. What a set list! A cover of Sly’s I Want To Take You Higher! Wow!! Went to their tour page and sadly no upcoming West Coast shows but will keep my eye open in the future. Maybe Tedeschi Trucks acted as faith healers for that guy in the wheelchair.
Sounds like a great show Glen, and that price was very reasonable. Susan had a great role model in Bonnie Raitt, who was a trailblazer. People are very entitled to say the least. Cheers.
I saw TDB a few years back with Marcus King. This band is the real deal and is a must see for any blues based fan. Now I have to agree with your about the 10%. They're usually pissed out of their minds with no regard for others because they're there to party. I can go on and on about concert goers for hours. I gave up going to rock concerts in the 70's and went to bluegrass (which they have their idiots too) but obviously came back here. Anyways - good review - my first time watching your channel and I agree with everything you had to say.
Have seen Tedeschi Trucks Band multiple times and they are, indeed, a must see. Also saw Derek with the Allman Brothers in '03 which is my "grail" concert. Being the same age as you Glen, I'm pretty selective in what I spend my money on. I would though, walk barefoot five miles over flaming coals to see TTB. If there is such a thing as reincarnation, Duane > Derek. I read Gregg stated that many a time. Cheers!
@GlenKellawayfromthebasement Susan Tedeschi and her solo band opened. It was a magical evening. Everytime Derek put his hand in his pocket and pulled out the coricidin bottle, I was transported back to 1971 and the original six. Still gives me chills.
man so glad you enjoyed the show , sounds like a simular set list to when i saw them as you say every person on that stage are killer artists, there was no support act when we saw them so that encore was pretty cool, i usually get those assholes sit behind me at cinemas who talk all the way through the film eat loudly and repeately kick the back of your seat, i did loose it once and told them that i havent paid £12 to listen to your mouth flap now shut up and everyone cheered, didnt make any difference but releaved some tension lol, it does piss you off, the price was about £50 here to thats great value, same as its going to be for govt mule and larkin poe £33 cant complain, great review cheers glen
@@GlenKellawayfromthebasement they are from the same stable so to speak so fingers crossed should be epic, never been to the london palladium now it will be twice in 12 months
I was grinding my teeth at not being able to attend -- but from recordings and UA-cam I know that TTB are IT in their genre, further in fact! Even to hear Derek's slide guitar live would be terrific. However, Toronto being Toronto the Tepid is not a new story.

Thanks Larry..I am preparing for the hordes..
Thanks for the review. I’m going to see them tonight in Detroit.
Awesome..let me know your thoughts..very cool..
Sounds like a cool Prine/Dead medley. Ziggy was here a few weeks back with Mavis Staples and Trombone Shorty. Glad you enjoyed yourself!
Thanks Sam..it was awesome..

This was great. Painted a wonderful picture.
Statesboro blues. Wow. Would have been wicked.

awesome you liked it. People are strange! im excited for the exchange
The Exchange..cant miss UA-cam TV
Yes, They put on a great performance!! I saw her years back at a blues festival when she played solo
Dave!!! In your honour, I didn’t rank the set list❤❤👍
@@GlenKellawayfromthebasement Thanks Glen!!!!

I agree about Bonnie..Susan has a more powerful voice but very similar..

Very cool..seeing Derek with the ABB would have been killer..

@@dennislind8411 wow..I only saw ABB once..around 1974 in Buffalo when Brothers and Sisters came out.
" I would though, walk barefoot five miles over flaming coals to see TTB." Now there's the kernel of another blues anthem -- great exaggeration!.

That is why

It was a puzzling crowd for sure…Too bad you got the boot from those seats..I am from Toronto so still consider myself a city kid..
