Maybe 2024 will feature musical exchange instead of guns and bombs. Like a "Battle of the Bands".
Imagine a field where people took turns playing instruments and singing.

That's a great year of shows. Wishing you another concert filled year in 2024.

Simply Amazing - quite a year of Rock and Roll! Your curated End of Year list is wonderful! Keep on Rocking!

Based on the 10 shows, what did you expect as #1. I could have penalized him for not performed Before the Deluge which is my fave JB tune.

Terrific shows under your belt in 2023!
Here's to another great year of music in 2024 for you!
