Will prolly make that show as well. Gregg is not just another "Blues Cover Guy". He's a rocker from way back......Phil Brady's is a very good no frills venue as well........

Has anyone been to that venue, The Blues Room? I googled and found this article. Is it the first weekend open?

Lou, Gregg was doing session work in L.A. when MJ was set to tour the Thriller Album. Gregg killed the Eddie Van Halen Guitar part on the song "Beat It" and was hired to tour with MJ. Dude can flat out play and add to that he was self taught, left handed on a right handed guitar flipped upside down.........just makes you say WOW when you watch it live........ Phil Brady's this Saturday night!!!!!
