Marisa joined me to take in Peter Frampton's "Let's Do It Again" tour at The Capitol Theatre in Portchester last week.  Amazing show, especially when we know Peter contemplated retirement a few tours ago -- it was billed as a Farewell.  He sang and played as great as ever.  His four-piece backing planned played and sang on the money. I enjoyed his decision to cover three songs her performed with Humble Pie (See setlist below.). Marisa posted some brief clips to Facebook that give you a taste of the concert.  I am glad a parent gets to share the music of one of his "heroes with his child.

“While My Guitar Gently Weeps“ is one of my favorite Beatles songs. Must have been great.

It was. The only thing is weighing inclusion of some covers against some Frampton tunes not included subj as Something’s Happening and Doobie Wah and my fave Frampton tunes Nowhere’s Too Far (for My Baby,

Nice setlist! Saw Frampton w Jethro Tull many moons ago. Interesting that he covered a Sound Garden song.

He was at Mohegan Sun the weekend I was there. Unfortunately his show was the night I was leaving. I really was disheartened to miss it.

If I go to places such as Morgan Sun it's primarily (solely?) to see someone perform - as was the case last summer with Squeeze & Boy George -- the subject of an earlier blog post.
