Going to see him at Rams Head Sunday night in Annapolis.I heard I am in for a great show.

[nellgit]

unreal talent!love his style-soulful/brutal-his presence,the way he hits the notes,& his dedication all come through on stage.he is the real deal[he tortures that strat to make his point but stays true to his own voice!

[fistchips]

I agree....I've seen him quite a few times and he's great..but..I enjoyed him the most when he opened for Govt mule in Columbus Ohio..45minute show.I think 90 minutes would be

the limit.He's great but after 2 hours of extended solos I get burnt ears.

Ive seen Chris about 6 times,,,twice on my birthday. 5 times i was front row. He always meets fans after the show. Great player and a great guy.

I have seen him countless times. I remember talking to him before a show in 94 in Columbus. He was watching an opening jazz band picking chunks off of his fingers. These wounds were beyond scabs, The tips of his fingers looked like raw meat. He then played for 2 1/2 hours However his show has not changed since then. Same opener and 3 hour shows with about 12 songs being played. At some point you start looking around the crowd thinking "when is this over". He is at his best with a 1 1/2 show.

GODDAMN! Chris' fingers could be falling off and he'd still find a way to shred that Strat!

Thanks for a great show Chris...as always! And holy smokes what a video arcme!
