• The concert with Irvin Mayfield…very, very cool. And as someone noted, she will be the featured vocalist, not one of several. And, I think she will be more confident in her performance than at Carnegie Hall. I think she had a little case of the nerves that night (Carnegie Hall!!), but in her home town, with her fans there, I am thinking she will just tear it up. It would be great if Irvin could work a few Haley songs into the mix, maybe a swinging “Oh My” or “Hit The Ground Running”. So wish I could go! You folks in Chicagoland area are so lucky!

rmd, I totally agree with all you said, especially the part about including a few Haley songs. I think that Now That Your Here would be a good choice...

And your posts are never too long and always worth reading.

Last week, Irvin sent out several tweets regarding honoring Fats Domino...

It's an honor to spend this afternoon w/ a living legend, Mr. Fats Domino. We're honoring him on Friday @Tipitinas. pic.twitter.com/2FQjOppPul

I would not be surprised if "I Hear You Knocking" is on the set list



As far as Haley being the 'only' featured singer, didn't they also add performers as the date got closer for Carnegie? They added the children's group, The Sphinx Virtuosi to his show. (They performed the next night at Carnegie, with Irvin 'sitting in' with them, as they 'sat in' with him in his Carnegie performance), Dee Dee Bridgewater and Shannon Powell, the gentleman who sang "Hit the Road Jack" with Caley later too.



It would be an awesome bonus for Haley to perform the whole show, but I suspect the line up hasn't been finalized, yet.

• Speaking of that show…DAMN! I am a huge Steely Dan fan (just saw them last night near DC) and Harry just shredded Pretzel Logic. I had no idea he was THAT good on guitar. Damn…

One of the highlights of listening to the Playlist, for me, is Harry's Sweet Solo" in Pretzel Logic.... so sweet

Harry is definitely one bad dude on that guitar! When I played this video for my husband and his friend, they wanted to hear it like 3 times in a row. So good!!

Finally, got the 'from stage' video footage from Peter Spero.

It's the whole concert plus some of the pre show set up, here's a cap of the video to get an idea of how big the crowd was for the show....


Not really useable in any degree to edit into the footage I already have, but a cool perspective of an iconic performance in Haley's career.

I may just go ahead and post one of the songs from this perspective...

I'd like that Tusk! Post away.

I chose "My Cake" as it had the most of Haley being active (plus a little interaction with Tom Kro) and also has Spero's great solo, to throw him a bone



I shrunk it a bit, due to low resolution
The audio for the video had a fairly significant hiss and hum, I was able to get rid of most of it

Thanks Tusk. Hope the lighting manager at BG Days sees the havoc that those blasts of high-intensity does to the viewers and their cameras. Same annoyances were there the year before while watching Casey Abrams perform.

Thanks Tusk. Love that perspective. Can't wait for Haley to tour regularly with a full band.

That was really cool seeing that stage-view video. I love that song and that performance and it was groovy seeing the crowd digging it all. I was looking for myself in there, but I didn't find me. Ha.
