One of the best shows I’ve seen in a long time. Baby Lemonade performed the material as can only be done by accomplished musicians who have played all the nuances of those compositions many times on tour. It was very moving. Rusty Squeezebox sings some of those songs perfectly, and the drummer Daddy-o Green took no prisoners. I came to see Vince and the Invincebles and the original guys from Love, Johnny and Michael playing again together but now I’m a fan of Baby Lemonade too.
The Invincebles have some fine original songs, especially the first song of the second set. I don’t know what it is called. Does anyone have a set list from both bands? They also played Can’t Explain, and an arrangement of Bummer in The Summer with Johnny Echols that was excellent but the vocals were buried.
The monitors had plenty of headroom to raise the vocals. I stood behind the sound guy while he fumbled around trying to locate the unlabeled lead voice pot. He referred to headphones to hunt for the mics. Colored tape on each mike stand would have been a better way. The board engineer gets a C- for not putting the vocals up more, not adding some low end eq, and not adding any reverb to the vocals.
I heard the Invincebles had some problems and missed sound check, which is not a good sign. Don’t know what happened there or why Vince demolished the mikes. He and the Invincebles were bounding about the stage like molecules when they collided but kept playing from the stage floor during Long Tall Sally sung little Richard style by Willie Chambers. Their cranked Marshalls sounded awesome and Baby Lemonade was the perfect contrast. The whole show deserves to play to a bigger venue than the Whisky, like the Greek Theatre.

Mike forgot to mention that Bryan Maclean's mother (who is also Maria McKee's mother), Elizabeth, was sitting next to me for the show, and singing along with all the songs. The band also took a moment to point her out. |
