Is Duckworth playing with him these days? Last time I saw him (proly 6 years ago) Duckworth had left and his backing band was pretty weak. The show wasn't terrible but it was a bit disappointing. Good to hear he put on a solid show.

no I didn't. I gave the ticket to will call and told them to give it away. Right before the show started a guy sat next to me using my ticket and after we talked he bought my beer all night long for the free ticket. win win

I'm a fan of REK but to be honest I despise that song. It was fun the first 500 times I heard it but REK has milked that cow beyond the point of absurdity.

If you've seen one Bob Keen concert, you've seen them all.

Respectfully disagree...it is true that you'll hear Gringo/Feeling Good Again, The Road, Xmas, Coming Home at every show you go to...But if you're into more of the rarities (Whenever Kindness Fails, Tom Ames Prayer cover, etc) you'll hear a nice mix of stuff you're not used to hearing....

I was at the show and it was really good. Don't really know Keen. I'm more of a rock and roller, but I really enjoyed Keen's show. Also, bumped into a couple of members of the Auburn team on the elevator at the hotel and they seemed like really good kids.

IMO REK is a great songwriter and he should just stick to that.
