Sacramento Memorial Auditorium

Yes, I’m still reeling from the attack on Sacramento Memorial
Auditorium
from the Red Rocker and his intensely rockin’ band. From 8:15pm
until
10:40pm on August 19, Sacramento’s ass was kicked, and kicked HARD!
Sammy made a point of letting the audience know that he remembered
his
late ’70’s and early ’80’s gigs at the ol’ Memorial Auditorium; we
let
him know that we remembered too!! I won’t go specifically into each
song on the set list because, with one exception, it’s the same from
recent shows. What really threw me for a loop was the inclusion of
“Both Sides Now”. Great job with this song. Sammy said they worked
it
at soundcheck and decided to put it in the set – great decision! So
just
let me give you all some personal highlights from the show:

(1) Obviously the awesome “Waborita Intermission”

(2) “Bad Motor Scooter”

(3) “Red”

(4) “Little White Lie”

(5) “I Can’t Drive 55” (Any Doubts?!)

(6) “Heavy Metal” (My personal fave – and the rest of the crowd went
insane too!)

(7) “The Yogi’s So High…” (Intensely tight and trippy live)

Well, hope you can share this on the webpage. Anyone who hasn’t seen
the show is in for a REAL treat. All of the band members give their
all
with their performances, and of course, Sammy is in the groove the
entire night! His performance is sincerely from the heart – yes, I
felt it.

Thanks to Patti Heneghan for the review!
