Bette...I saw Pat and Rick last summer, but they didn't jam together. Pat looked exhausted though, perhaps he wasn't feeling well, and left right after his set. Anyrate, they both were great. Hope you enjoy the them! You'll probably get a chance to meet Rick after if you haven't already. He and his band are very down to earth and approachable.
have a blast!!! |

A huge thanks to Pat Travers, band and crew for coming out to Fairfax, CA (19th Broadway) on July 18 and rocking down the town!!! It was a great show! The town is still buzzing about it. Everyone was into it that night, singing along and dancing. It's nice to know there are real people on stage, who'll stop and say hello. That's a class act. We sure hope you will come back to our "lazy hippie town" THANKS! |

You won't be disappointed. He's focused and sober and I think better than ever. We liked him so much in Buffalo last summer we traveled to Akron, Oh to see him on my 40th. It was well worth the trip. Celebrated my birthday with his band at after the show, Tom Curiale (drummer, huge PT fan, played with him once on tour, was in the crowd when they recorded Go For What You Know, sat near the guy that blew the whistle during BoomBoom) and Kevin Ryan(former PT bassist). Great guys and it was a great jam. Be interested to know if they're still backing him up.
If you want to see a good concert, get Derringer and Edgar Winter in Japan. There's this part where Edgar's doing this vocal skat stuff and Rick is echoing him. Fantastic!!! You can get it on DVD from NetFlix |

I saw Rick N. and Eric in a little nieghborhood beer joint, called Muldoons, in Orlando last Saturday evening. Also onstage with them was their new guitarist, Kirk McKim. Kirk is just superb on the six string!!! Kirk sat in with the PTB a few weeks ago at a club in north Florida. The name of the band is called "Bad Ass REK". The guys said that they now have plenty of gigs, both with PT, as well as their own! Oh yeah, I did buy a REK t-shirt also.
I hope that Rick and Eric are part of the upcoming PT/Derringer gigs. Rick and Eric have both told me that they enjoy playing with Derringer. They said their favorite tune to play with Derringer is an instrumental called "Rhapsody in Red" That tune starts out slow and slowly picks up and by the end they are really rockin'!!
Man, I sure could use another PTB/Derringer/REK gig right about now! S'later |

Hi All-
I went to the Tommy Bolin Festival @ the Surf Ballroom, last nite, 8 1 03. PT headlined the show with Glenn Hughes before him.
On the setlist front, Crash and Burn was included, which I've heard on various CDs but not seen executed live, so that was cool.
The PT set was a bit of an oddball, a weird deal actually. After PT announced that 'we're here to kick your ass!', a broken string stopped the show three Hooked On Music power chord slams into the show. PT fixed the broken string only to be plagued by amplification problems upon his return. What seemed to me to be PT's guitar signal processing unit cut out for the first four or five tunes intermittently. He'd be singing and playing and the guitar signal would stop. PT would go back and push or beat on the errant button or piece of equipment to restore the signal.
And then there was the incessant heckler requesting 'Alligator' and/or 'Jimi' while Pat's trying to deal with the intermittent amp situation.
Finally, PT told the heckler guy, 'Oh, Shut-up! If you don't think we've not already got the set list written out and that we're not going to play the songs we're going to play, if you think we're going to play something not on the setlist, well, that's great...I've got bigger fish to fry here, I've got some gear to keep afloat back here...Shut-up!...No, I'm kidding, I'm using you for...minor entertainment value here...Can't you see I got a piece of gear here that's screwing up every two seconds?...and you want me to start playing some other stuff?...I'm accomodating but not........... not..............We'll play nothing but old stuff, really old stuff...(Eric breaks out into a Ventures surf drum beat, like the intro to Walk Don't Run)...as old as this piece of gear back here...allright, that's enough on breakdowns, it's been two long nights...(PT starts playing Wipe-out by the Ventures, Eric + Rick chime in).'
A PT Tommy Bolin via Glenn Hughes story follows the heckler incident and the point of PT's story I'm not really sure of, because frankly I haven't figured out what PT was talking about yet and probably never will.
I can tell this show is not going well at this point if you catch my drift.
But the good news is, PT recovers the 2nd half of the show, his gear works and the remainder of the show comes off great and I enjoyed it very much.
Setlist was:
Hooked On Music
Life In London
Case Of The Blues
Crash And Burn
The Pain
Stevie
Elijah
Rick's Bass Solo Credenza
Whippin' Post
Snortin' Whiskey
Boom Boom
Credenza
Born under a Bad Sign
Glenn Hughes did cover Tommy Bolin at the festival. That was cool, too. Wild Dogs comes to mind.
And last but not least, all opinions expressed are FWIW + IMHO. Quotes are based on documented evidence, if you know what I mean.
Regards,
T |

Alright! I'm heading out to see Pat at the Tracy Dry Bean festival in a few minutes, and you can bet I'm stoked. The really cool thing about this is that it's an open street kind of thing, which means I'll have my vid camera with me. Yahoo! You won't be seeing this on the web...it's just for myself, and so a couple of friends (fans that can't make it to this one) can see what they missed. 'Course Pat could have a copy if he wanted one. 
I'll see if I can make it to the Boardwalk show too. Hope to see some of you there!

Hi Blur, I think Kirk McKim is pretty much a REK thing, but like I mentioned, he did sit in with them for a show. REK did do "Crash & Burn" last Saturday with Kirk on vocals. I talked to a couple of people that was at the PTB/with Kirk show and they all said it would be cool if it were a regular thing. Kirk is very impressive, but then if your gonna play with Rick and Eric, ya gotta be. PT and Derringer is proof of that.
S'later. |

Thanks John. I'm so jealous of you living in Florida. Sometimes I think I should move there (or Cali for that matter) just so I can see PT more often. I think my life would be complete if I could see PT every few weeks. |

Hey Hammerhead (Hammered Ed),
If you're talking about The Scorpions "Animal Magnetism", that was released in 1980....
Hey Tom, thanks for the Bolinfest review. Sounds like lots of gremlins with pick axes were chopping Pat's mind into little tiny pieces at that particular gig. Some days you're the windshield, and some days you're the bug! Too bad the PTB didn't work up a Bolin tune for that particular show, since it was a memorial for Tommy. Oh well. Mike K. emailed me that he missed the gig because he & his family were in Chicago this past week. Has he emailed you yet? He's been wanting to get in contact with you again....
Hey Bette, I'm working on plans to make it to the Emerald gig also, or the Portland gig that same weekend. How 'bout you Cindye, Darren & Randal???
As always, PTB is King! |

Scott, that is so wierd that you ran in to Randy and Ned, Sue Perry called me about 2 weeks ago out of the blue and after 20 years also, she asked about those guys and Brett. Now I am sorry that I missed the festival, had other priorites though, would have been nice to see those guys, lots of memories!
Hope everyone had a good time in Tracy, I will be at the Campbell show. Steve, I missed Sticky Fingers, my cousins from Holland surprised me (flew in to town, staying with my parents). Had to do the family thing. |

talking about PT's equipment troubles...
Last year when I saw him he had trouble with an amp, too. I asked Rick after the show about it. He said that the problem is that they usually rent equipment where ever they go, so they really are at the mercy of what has been provided for them.
That's gotta suck!!! I can't count how many times on this board someone has mentioned the equipment problems PT has had. How frustrating to deal with that crap night after night, and then to get people heckling him. Geezzz.. |

Great show on Sunday. Pat never fails to deliver. My tape came out pretty well too. I had a good spot...right in the first row. Eventually I had to get up to film over the heads of the people standing in front of the stage. I got up there myself a couple of times...first with digital camera, then with video camcorder. If anyone saw a guy with a white t-shirt with Zion Harley-Davidson, Utah emblazoned on the back, that would have been me.
Of course, I had to get a signed copy of Pats new release, and I couldn't resist the 2-in-one disc of Putting It Straight and Heat In The Steet (two of my favs). Pat says that Makin' Magic is going to be re-released...I'm not sure if it's by Polydor tho; if Pat buys his own catalog, he wouldn't have to deal with those clowns.
ps. for you brother guitar players out there, I managed to get close up footage of Pats amp settings post show...kinda surprising. |

Yo Headward,
Now I understand! I pulled my cassette copy to check for a release date, and it's not listed anywhere on the liner notes. This morning I dropped an email to King Snake Records (the label that released this recording) asking for the information. I'll post if & when I get a response from them.
My favorite Scorpions would have to be Lovedrive. The first release with Matthias Jabs in the band AND Rudolph's brother Michael is onboard as well. Now THAT's a guitarsenal! Great songwriting as well.
And as always...PTB is King! |

I checked some letters of the PT fan club. The Animal Magnetism CD was mention in a letter (Patter) of May, 1995. The booklet has a small photo of PT family and two dogs but his wife isn't jonahing a song. PT is playing an Elton John's song "The Cage" with a female singer Jody Hudson. I showed it to Steve Morse 2 years ago and interestingly, he told me that he hadn't seen that CD. |

My favorite Scorpions has got to be something from the Ulrich Roth years. A toss up between "In Trance" and "Taken By Force". Brutal stuff! More of a Hendrix influenced guitar work as opposed to Matthias Jabs' heavey metal approach.
DOn't get me wrong. I love the Matthais Jabs stuff too! It's just different and I have my preference.
That's my  and I'm stickin' to it! |

I love all Uli-era releases. The one that really gets my motor revved up is the live one "Tokyo Tapes." I've actually acquired copies of all of the concerts in Japan from that tour. None are quite as nice sounding as "Tokyo Tapes" but still some killer stuff.

Takashi, great to hear from you again! Drop a line. I have an updated "live" trade list for you to look over. I'll also have several Dio shows available soon from '84 & '85 you might be interested in. Currently converting from cassette to digital, and they will need flagging & hiss removal. I remember the picture you emailed me! Ha! Any luck locating "Moth Poet Hotel" over there in Japan? I'm still looking for it! Hope all is well with you...
Darren! No excuses! Get yer booty to one of the two gigs!
Headward...no info from King Snake yet....
Ginbels...glad to see that you took my advice & checked out the Heart show. With Gilbey & Mike Inez on board, you knew it was gonna rock. Ann's voice has lost nothing over the years, and Nancy is STILL one of the finest babes in the biz...not to mention a fine picker in her own right! Glad you enjoyed the show.
Just caught Dream Theater & Queensryche in Portland last Friday. This could possibly be 'Ryche's last tour...it was a good show. Both bands jammed on 3 songs together for the encore, and the last song was "Won't Get Fooled Again" by the Who! Worth the trip!

PT fans......bad news for Lake Texoma and north Texas fans......the Friday August 15th show at Pompano's Island Club has been cancelled. The entertainment company and venue had a disagreement on revenue percentages after last weekend's show....now they no longer work together. The venue's deposit check was consequently no good so no deposit cements "no show". I apologize for those that were planning to come out but whether a show ever happens depends on a lot on people coming together with a venue, deposit, eqpt, advertising, etc. I am trying to recover the performance somewhere else at this time but have no guarantees at the moment. Stay tuned! Texas Rich |

Hey Blu,
Rocks, the Aerosmith tribute, is no more. There's another one called Pump, but I don't know anything about 'em.
Some of the bands are look alikes, some aren't. Who knows what Boston looks like, it doesn't matter! But the band, 'Smokin' is incredible! They blow away anyone who hears 'em. The Cheap Trick band does the look & the sound. Which One's Pink is only a sound-alike, but ask Ed, they rock!  TNT is a great look & sound-alike band. Both Doors bands are great, but I've only worked with Peace Frog (I subbed with them for a few gigs).
Let's make it happen!

Strat, I'm not absolutely sure about whether I'll do Emerald Queen or not - maybe Portland -- the family bailed on our camping trip next week and now wants to go to Vegas the weekend of the 22nd!! Will figure it out and get back to ya fer sure. I'm leaning toward maybe hitting the Portland show if I can move the family trip, cause I have a business meeting waiting for me there.
By the way, Hammer and Hummerheads, I just hooked up with KB Homes and will be doing condos with them for the next five to seven years! From what-comes-nest to set-for-years in one fell swoop. The Great Mystery (aka God) has shined on your buddy - looks like I'm gonna make it, IN SPITE of the fact that my opponent filed yet ANOTHER effing appeal. @#%@%(&*^%*#$&)&*&)*#* |

WOW!! That is GREAT news!! We are happy for you! I know you have worked hard at what you do. I have found nothing can replace hard work and honesty. There will always be those who will try to discredit what you do and stab you in the back every chance they get. Ahh.. jealousy rears it's ugly head. Nothing you can do. As you said... God evens the playing field one way or the other. Bad things happen to bad people and vice-versa. Just the way it is. I think it is the whole "Reap what you sow" thing. Anyway I digress. Glad to hear things are "Looking Up"! |

Happy for you to hear the good news Randal! Always cool to see someone bust a hurdle!
Can anyone confirm that Pat played at the Umatilla County Fair in Hermiston, Oregon this past Thursday the 7th? This morning a friend of mine working sound for a Joan Jett & Rail show there today called and told me he saw a flyer showing the County Fair line-up, and it had Pat playing there a few days ago! No mention of it here at all! Anyone with info, please inform me!
Thanks, and as always....PTB is King! |

Yeah, Strat, that's weird about the Hermie show. That would be HUGE for that little burg! Haven't heard a peep, even from my Tri-Cities buddies - you'd think ol' Brother Scott would at least mention it, if not haul ass to get over there! |

Hermiston was leveled by PT! Reports have it that it was their biggest stage yet, excellent sound, lighting, etc. Everyone was on-fire. Has been the buz of the town ever since. Such a rockin' good show that many in the audience thought it was the Thrall, Aldridge, Cowling line-up!
We try to do our best to inform you folks ASAP of these events here, but sometimes it does not always work out that way. |

Bette!
Didn't make it to any of the shows, Daryl and Ed didn't make it up ,car trouble and work get in the way, don't they know you sell the car quit the job and hitch a ride? I had about a bazillion things that needed doin, like moving moving and moving........... so I opted to get things done over goin to a show alone. Scott and Jo didn't go no Bette no Ed NO DARYL. Just me and Pat..... people might talk. I did have a dream about a show last night though every one went. It was in a huge theatre somewhere. Pretty realistic.
Well gotta go. talk to ya soon.
Hey you still plannen on meeting us in Maui? I still say we need to get a party together and have Pat play it, it would only be fitting!
Later..... |

Randall, congrats!! A little stability is always a good thing, and you deserve it!
As for Dream Street, no, that was not my band. Believe it or not, there are currently 2 Led Zepagains. It goes back to a split almost 2 years ago between our singer & the guys from the other band. If you want all the gory details, I'll email 'em to you, don't want to bog down this board with that stuff!
Suffice to say, I'm glad you didn't make it to their show, and you will not be dissapointed with ours on the 23rd! Spread the word!
Blu, still waiting to hear from you on the tribute show!
Cheers!

TONIGHT though heading off on a road trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! going to see Kim Mitchell!! man, I am over due for a concert, can't wait, having a few drinks to get started, and will be "go-ing for a soda" tonight, but spiked one of course with some rum, lol lol.

Hey Randal, first off, a big, big congrats on you recent primary business success!!! I know you`ve put in a lot of "Blood, Sweat, and Tears" to put it all together!! When, and where, is the celebratory party, featuring the PTB, and wouldja please invite me?
It`s your secondary, e-mail based, ventures that I find troublesome. The other day you sent me an e-mail telling me of a rare investment opportunity on the purchase of some rare "Star Wars" movie memorbilia, that were sure to go up in value over time. Yesterday you sent me another e-mail offering to refinance my mortgage at below current bank rates. I just now recieved an e-mail from you asking if I`d like to enlarge my penis.
Well Randal, yes I would like to enlarge my penis, but I don`t believe I know you well enough to discuss such personal matters. As far as my mortgage, I feel safe and secure with my current financial situation, and I am not seeking a change at this time. I am still mulling over your "Star Wars" offer.
Have any other PT regulars recieved similar e-mails from Randal, and if so, could you tell us of your replys? Thank you very much. S'later, JH |
Randal
| | Posted on Monday, August 11, 2003 - 05:23 pm: | |
JH --- YIKES!!! It appears that I am the unfortunate recipient of a spamming program.
Any advice on how to fix this will be appreciated! I've been studiously running Norton, but this one has apparently gotten through. John, you'll be glad to know that I couldn't be less interested in your -- "measurements" LOL
effing craphead spammers |
Randal
| | Posted on Monday, August 11, 2003 - 06:05 pm: | |
geez
ran Norton and it found nothing, but ran Spybot Search & Destroy and it found several spybots, which I guess could be the problem. Mr. Howe, you should receive no further solicitations from me. PLEASE let me know directly if you receive anything further - my clients are probably getting the same stuff and I must fix the problem pronto. I DO NOT have a secondary business!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I didn't really like Star Wars that much, and after what I just came through the LAST thing I would do is offer to help someone with a mortgage loan! I already commented on the tape measure . . .
In fact, all you SHOULD receive from me are good jokes, interesting graphics and news of note, including (as we all know) PT ROXX. see ya |

if there IS a next time, I would appreciate a more subtle approach to finding out what's happening than broadcasting to everyone else over the Internet instead of simply asking me. No need to let the spammers have more of a negative impact than they already do . . . now we're both the victim! |

Sorry, but NOBODY can be compared to or confused with Thrall, Cowling & Aldridge in regards to the PTB....
You can slice & dice it anyway you wanna, and it'll never happen. The talent level & chemistry of those four was undeniable. Be careful where you blow smoke....
Also, it takes approximately ONE MINUTE to post a message here. No reason for a lack of announcement on the Hermiston show here at this website for those that might have been interested in going. If computer access was unavailable, then a quick phone call to have someone post would have worked. Having found out some pertinent details after the fact, I'm not upset for missing this show, but I'm sure others would liked to have had some sort of advance notice. Even a 1/2 day, or a few hours might have been enough for some. Pat deserves all the publicity he can get! See that he & whatever lineup is playing with him gets it!
Randal, just read your email from the Chamber Of Commerce in P.A. Wow! that's cool that they took out a full page ad in your defense! Obviously you have the "right people" on your side! It will no doubt be a success eventually! Congrats on all the hard work and eventual success....BTW, I haven't received any of the spam that J.H. has been getting in Fla. It must be an isolated incidence?
Cindye, is Kim playing in Vancouver? At the Commodore by chance? Have a great time, and a "soda" for me, eh?
Regarding the "Tribute Bands Concert"....there is an Iron Maiden tribute band in Seattle called "Maiden Seattle". They don't look like them, but they have the sound down pretty good. Interested booking agents should go to www.maidenseattle.com for info. Otherwise, I know nothing about them or their asking fees...just passing along some info to those that might be interested.
And as always....PT is King! |

Man O man what a great show last night! Two encores! I especially enjoyed the medley in the first encore! What a treat. Zepagain continues to impress each and everytime. Wow!
What was equally impressive is that you guys really know how to pack'em in. I've never seen the House Of Blues so full! IT WAS LIKE - SARDINE PACKED!
After all of the shows I've seen you guys play you've never even came close to playing the the same setlist twice! Ecclectic Zeppelin at it's best! Honestly I'm already looking forward your next show!
I posted it before and I'm-a-postin' it again. Do yourself a favor...
Get out and see Zepagain |

"Pat says that Makin' Magic is going to be re-released...I'm not sure if it's by Polydor tho; if Pat buys his own catalog, he wouldn't have to deal with those clowns."
I actually heard from Eddie Wilner from OneWay Records (the label that put out the twofer (2 albums on one CD) of "Heat In The Street/Putting It Straight") that they'll be re-releasing Pat Travers (debut)/Makin' Magic and Radioactive/Black Pearl as twofers. He also said that both of these new releases will come in limited edition signature slipcases as well as the standard jewel case packaging.
Happy Days Indeed!!!

Brian, I am pitching the Led Zep, AC/DC, PInk Floyd and Sticky Fingers acts. Maybe Smokin" too, but since Boston is playing here in a couple of weeks - I'll need to make them a last addition, if this goes through. At any rate, I am meeting next Thursday to lock it up or do my own thing again. Based on Ed's ratings and what I've seen so far - bro I'm going to get your band up here. Reno will freak on you. I emailed you this morning. I'll be in touch.
Thanks again to everyone who came to the Tahoe gig. PT mastered the audience and brought a crowd with him, out front and backstage. What a set!!! Did you guys here that Vivaldi turned In my Dreams thing? People ask me about that, I barely remember with all the details I was handling. With the crowd yelling for more, PT graciously played a 101 minute set - yikes!!
Thanks for everyones' input on the tributes concert.
Tony LO wants me to take October 12. I don't like Sundays historically. Gotta see if he'll move/switch his Oct 10th date my way or look for the following weekend Fri/Sat. (2) Nights of PT for the price of one. Later PT superpals |
