heck ya bro ... one of the best shows i have ever seen - went with my wife, joey and his girlfriend amy......my wife went to Arizona State and used to see him play allot out west...she is the one who introduced me to his music a long time ago...so i had no choice in the matter really - as soon as she heard he was gonna be at sugarloaf in Maine -- my wife bought the tix.... i saw him once before in arizona - but it was a much bigger venue and outdoors...i will tell you what dude -- that guy RIPS on the guitar and vocals - pure rock and roll at its finest...i never knew the sound was coming from basically all him....in other words - sure he's got a drummer and a bassist -- but it is outrageous that he is singer/songwriter/rhythm AND LEAD GUITAR. blew my mind. joey and i were watching him and looking over at each other like.....WOW!

Dagnabbit! When I saw you I was in the (long) beer line and could not hop out to introduce myslef. Kept my eyes peeled for you but BHT came on right after I got me and my wife a few beers. From the angle of your video, you must have been standing right in front of me
They were GREAT- was my 2nd time seeing them (I was up to ski for the weekend and pre-purchased the tix when I heard they would be playing). I saw them a loooong time ago when they were with the Horde tour... with the Samples and Blues Travler (among others). You're right the dude can rail on guitar, vocals - everything. A great night.
Assembly of Dust was a pleasant surprise. Turned out one of my buddies knew the lead singer - I got to meet him, nice guy. Speculator is just a fantastic tune.
Next time I'll skip the beer and introduce myself!
It was actually in the convention hall underneath. A 21 an older show.
P.S. Jeremy - did you get busted like I did for staring at that fine woman selling the T-Shirts and other BHT gear? I got the old elbow to ribs from my wife.

dude -- that is a riote! after the show ... my wife is like..."oh, honey...can't we get a T-Shirt ... I hear the band is coming out to personally sign them...."........ I am like.."Come On honey...we don't need a signed t-shirt, you know it;s just gonna sit in a box in the cellar and the line is really....." THEN I SAW HER (the blond selling the T-Shirts).....and I was like, "Actually honey, come to think of it, it would be nice to have a T-Shirt not just for you BUT FOR ME TOO!!!! "
