Played City Winery with my band last Friday

Played the City Winery in Philly with my Bowie band...it was a sell out! We're booked again for January, this time in the big room, fits several hundred people! This picture was right after soundcheck. That's my drumset way in the back.

Respect to you,Bowie helped me find myself when I was desperate for help.

@pedrohedgerow We won't see the likes of him again. He was one of a kind. I was sad when he passed. Prince played "Heroes" on piano at his last-ever concert.

@uncalled4 I cried and cried,unashamed.

@pedrohedgerow 2016 was a horrible year. We lost a ton of people. Only 2020 was worse.

You need the big room (hopefully bigger stage too), well done!
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
@GeniUs It's MUCH bigger. There was a full-sized grand piano up there and it looked like a toy. The security guy said they fit 18 people effortlessly on that stage, so no worries come January and "Philly Loves Bowie" week.

It's an interesting venue. Saw Southside Johnny there a while back. Downstairs, good show, awful service. We actually thought our waitress might have OD'd or something...

@uncalled4 It was actually the last show we saw pre-covid. the other tables were doing just fine, wait staff buzzing around like little bees. Just our girl, wife ordered at the bar!! We were sure she must have died or quit.

Congrats on the sell out! Cool place & set up. I could’ve seen you if I still lived in NJ. 😊

@marsbar I'll probably have a few people I could put on the guest list next time.

@SW-User Thanks!

@uncalled4 what kind of music does the band play? Is there a singer or is it purely instrumental?
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
@SW-User It's a David Bowie tribute.
Entwistle · 56-60, M
Playing live is great fun!
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
@Entwistle It is. I'm actually playing TWO albums in their entirety with the band this Saturday--ZIGGY and STATION TO STATION, plus hits. I have a breakneck schedule, but I love it.
