Who is the kid standing between him & Pete?

Not sure. The credits list Tim Sears and Jason Webster as guitarists, but I don't recognize either one of those names.

Kind of looks like Jason Webster, but I can't tell for sure.

In case anyone is interested, it turns out Arlo & his daughter Sarah will be touring the US over the next 6 months. I saw him just a couple of years back, and while he's certainly older (aren't we all?), he's not showing any signs of developing Huntington's Chorea like his father did. My only complaint is that I didn't spring for seats closer to the stage!

According to the tour list, he'll be in Nashville. Would really like to see him, but I've been soured on concerts for a while now. Not a big fan of crowds, especially when things get too rowdy - which seems to be a prerequisite with concerts. We went to a Moody Blues concert at Starwood Amphitheater in Nashville some years ago, and while the music was fantastic, it was hard to enjoy with everyone around us standing and jumping up and down, blocking our view.

Yeah, I'm old - I'll own that...

The crowd was pretty tame (compared to a rock concert) at the last Arlo show I went to. Some yelling going on, but not much, and I don't recall anyone jumping around. Might have had something to do with the scent of burning grass wafting around, but it seemed to me that the crowd was mostly closer to our age. Maybe he doesn't appeal as much to those too young to appreciate the significance of the 27 8x10 color glossy photographs :smile:

But for that matter, there wasn't much fuss IMO at the last Moodies concert I went to, either. I was amazed at how small the venue was, seemed like it wasn't much more than a big lecture hall and we literally sat in folding chairs.

Now, that's more like it!

I saw him at, of all places, EPCOT a number of years ago. I really enjoyed his set, but, could not get out of my head the irony of a protest singer like him playing Disney. (selling out to the man)

Last year SWMBO and I were at a church event and one of the singers was a retired colleague. He's playing the banjo and guitar and singing and mid set says "Pete Seeger" taught me this next song - which got my attention. Turns out he was touring with Seeger when he got called into ministry. Amazing the things you find out.

Coincidence! I only bought Alice's Restaurant a couple of weeks ago.
