Did you know that John Harms theater was the setting for Woody's Annie Hall? And a lil' history: The John Harms Center for the Arts was built in 1926 as The Plaza, a silent movie and vaudeville theater. After tremendous remodeling, the theater was re-opened in 1976 as The Englewood Plaza, a venue for classical musical presentations. The theater's name was officially changed in 1981 after the death of local impresario John Harms, who led the effort to restore the theater.

Hey, PHIL & Friends...they should call themselves the noodle band...cause they noodle a lot... two sets and only about 9 songs....ie. a lot of jamming ... some very good, some not so good. Phil singing Jerry songs is kind of sad. "Days between", made me sad when Jerry did it. Now with Phil doing it, its really sad. The less they sounded like the dead the more I liked it. Like I said to my friend next to me: "If I squinted just right and shook my head, it was almost like being at a dead show". I was glad to see that Phil seemed in good spirits. His voice was pretty good. I'm sure he is very happy to be alive, what with the liver transplant and all. His singing sometimes leaves a lot to be desired. Never gets to the emotional thingy that Jerry was so good at, even though he tries so hard to do just that. I wish they would forget the Jerry tunes and just do more covers (maybe "keep on growing"?). At least, there were no bobby tunes. Jimmy Herring would probably be good playing anything...His playing makes them sound a lot like the allman brothers. In fact, they did 'blue sky' by the brothers and he really sounded like Dickey, and he really let all the stops out on that one. Very hot! Jeff Pevar on the other hand , has a lot of tricks, (e.g. he can get Jerry's tone) , but just doesnt really have the chops to compete with Jimmy. On blue sky, Jeff's solo was sooo lame compared to Jimmy's. But, Jeff filled in nicely at other moments (especially on slide). Not much rythym guitar playing. I really love double leads. So, when he did that it was really cool. The drums were pretty good (no drum solo was nice)...And last but not least , Rob (from the zen tricksters), was really hot. He and Jimmy traded notes like Jerry and Bruce Hornsby used to. He has really grown musically since the last time I've seen him. Security was practically nonexistent. Which meant people could smoke like chimney's!! All and all, and enjoyable time. However, I'd rather go see something acoustic or at least Jazzy... ... I never did a review of Bela Fleck and David Grisman...suffice it to say that the show lived up to the high expectations that I had for it. I especially liked the songs that they played together with nobody else...talk about fruitful noodling...
