Went to see him at the old Twi-Ropa on Tchop about 20 years ago. Amazing guitarist but very strange guy.

Does he still give away toys at the end of shows?

I got a ticket when it was first announced. It's a bucketlist item for me, no puns intended.

It's never been outright stated but I think he's probably on the spectrum in some capacity. Guitar is his gift.

It was awesome. He played for about two hours, with no breaks.

It was a mix of him playing to a backing drum/bass track and playing with an actual drummer.

For one song, a chick came out and shredded on the guitar and he played bass.

Saw him about 15 years ago. I like his music but his show is kinda boring.

It's kind of a weird show, which is to be expected. But not just because he's a weird dude, but they do a lot of stuff that doesn't make sense.

Like, why have a drummer, but play half your songs to a drum track?

And why travel with a guitarist, who comes out for one song, instead of traveling with a bass player, and play the entire show to a live rhythm section?

Was there an opener?

Looking at the schedule, it looks like doors open at 7 and show is at 8. I hope that's the case. Was planning on a full day in NOLA but not sure now with 10 escaped prisoners running around lol

No opener. He started about 10 minutes after the stated start time.
