Roomful still makes the world stand still! Love the horns! Love Chris Vachon's insane guitar solos! Great new keyboardist. And even though we still mourn the loss of Bob "Bubba" Enos on trumpet, the new guy has a great sound and fits the Roomful sound very nicely. Gracie Curran and the Hi-Falutin' Band is, by far, the most exciting new sound on the local blues scene. Fabulous energy, very few covers - her original songs are awesome. If you can catch a listen to their new CD "Proof of Love", do it! See if you recognize the baritone/alto sax player - if you're a Roomful fan, you can't miss him! And finally, who knew a local bunch of 17-year olds could rock the house! If you're on Facebook, look up The Dirty Floorboards! If you don't remember your own roots playing in a garage band or growing up in the 70's, you're definitely not playing with a full deck!!

Roomful of Blues was absolutely fantastic. The talent on that stage was overwhelming. Incredible. Highly recommended and a definite must, must see. Worth every single penny.

We used to see this group back in the college days and they were terrific. Well they've perfected their craft and bring a rich full sound that brings the listener on a fun filled journey that made this 50 year old feel 20 again! This music is an elixer for the ears and will surely garner new legions of fans both young and old. This is real visceral music, not over produced and synthesized, computer generated fluff.

I am no stranger to these type of events and being a musician myself I know what people should expect. Room ful of Blues put on a great show however I was not impressed with the quality of sound. When they started I could not hear the horns at all. The sound tech did make adjustments but this lead me to believe that no sound check was done and if it was done then it wasn't done properly. Also when horns are used they need to be blended very carefully so that all voices within the section can be heard. I could not hear (from stage left) the trumpet or trombone unless they soloed....their voicing was not heard as a section. However it did sound a little better from in front of the stage....just didn't get the same sound from stage left or stage right.

Loved it! It was our first time at this venue and we both loved the set up! Roomful of Blues has been around as long as I have and it was fun to see they still enjoyed their "work". I would highly recommend Showcase Live as a place to see your favorite band or cover band. It has a great "up close and personal" atmosphere.

The band and the new singer sounded great - but the show was way too short!
Venue at Patriot Place is fabulous, the food was just mediocre...we probably would not eat there again.
But we went to see and enjoy the sounds of Roomful of Blues and we certainly did.........

Roomful of Blues is an extremely talented band...with lots of energy and enthusiasm. It was only my second time seeing them but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The crowd was definitely appreciative and showed it with their applause and whistles. If only they had got up and danced, I think that would have made the band happy - "feel free to get up and dance if you want..." Phil said more than once.
I would definitely recommend this show! Especially at Showcase Live - a great intimate setting for any live act!!

After listerned to Ana for a few years this was my first time seeing her live and I cannot wait to see her and her band again. They we excellent, I hope she contiunes with these guys in the future. I hope she plays BBs again in her next trip to NYC, We've seen RFB many times before in its many forms and still rock and swing. Their sound is timeless!
BB Kings is still the best club in NYC for Music !!

Grew up with "Roomful". But we went to see Ana Popovic, saw her a year and a half ago on The Blues Cruise, she was great then and was superb last night. She should play more in the Tri-State area. Her CD's don't do her justice. You must see her live show.
Again, nothing wrong with Roomful Of Blues...you always know that they can deliver!
Great all around night.

Have you ever stumbled on a concert of someone you wish all your friends had seen too? That is the way it is with all my friends who attended her concert last night at the terrific Birchmere venue. It is no wonder she was 2009 Blues Music Award B.B. King Entertainer of the Year. Whether balladeer or blues-belter, she has range, power and conviction. It is a big plus that she uses her stage to support National Foster Care Month and speaks out as the ambassador for Foster Care Alumni of America. She remembers her roots and they inform her music.
