Let’s Chat Tour!

Post by PetalMel »

I know many of us don’t get here often enough, but I am curious how many are going to see the Reefers this year if they are in your neck of the woods. I have my ticket for Pine Knob, and I went to see them when they opened last year for the Doobie Brothers. Nope, it wasn’t the same; nor did I expect it to be. But it was wonderful and I can’t wait to see what twist they put on the songs we know by heart.


Peter’s 12 Volt Man cd is wonderful. Nadirah gave us her take on a few songs several years ago in “Nod to the Storyteller.” Will Kimbrough (who is FANTASTIC live—go see him if you can) knocked my socks off with his rendition of Piece of Work and Bubbles Up.

Anyway, interested in your thoughts. I am kinda excited to see what they what they do.
well, ummmmmmm, yah, I guess I better come up with something witty to put in this spot since everyone is reading it.......

It's interesting how "Piece of Work" has evolved since Will first wrote it.....





I'd love to see Mac and Will get together in a room with their guitars and just start foolin' around....

I am thrilled Michigan gets two dates, but I am wondering if there is enough interest to fill each venue. Would have loved to see them go elsewhere to fans who are missing out.

I would have LOVED to see Peter on my birthday, as well as go to Colorado to honor Elrod. Stupid work anyways…

It is always fun to watch how music evolves over time. Thanks for sharing those videos! 💕

Being in Texas, I have three to choose from if I travel and one that is pretty local. We haven't decided yet on which we are going to attend. Probably will hit one, but not sure which. Was going to buy tickets when they went on sale, but due to indecision maybe or maybe not being our problem, haven't yet.
