Members AnneP Posted February 28, 2012 Members Share Posted February 28, 2012 Red, White and Blues is a concert filmed at the White House last week. B.B. King, Jeff Beck, Buddy Guy, Derek Trucks, Warren Haynes (I think) hit the stage. Should be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Greg.Coal Posted February 28, 2012 Members Share Posted February 28, 2012 I have it set to record. Will be interesting to see if it gives rise to some (more) aspersions being cast by Mr Sanctimonious, Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Angry Tele Posted February 28, 2012 Members Share Posted February 28, 2012 ha Jeff Beck took the first solo...then he tried throwing it over to Buddy Guy who did what he did to the Stones-just stood there and didnt play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members k_strat Posted February 28, 2012 Members Share Posted February 28, 2012 Thanks for the heads up! I'm watching it right not. FYI: Though he's not in the featured line up Jesse Johnson formerly of "The Time" is in the house band. He's in the back on the far left playing the jeweled Strat.

Members AnneP Posted February 28, 2012 Author Members Share Posted February 28, 2012 Very cool show. Mick did a great version of "Miss You". Jeff Beck was amazing as usual as well as Gary Clark Jr. Could have heard a bit more of Derek Trucks. You can tell Obama loves guitar music.

Members BeanoBoy Posted February 28, 2012 Members Share Posted February 28, 2012 I dug Gary Clark Jr. A fresh approach without straying too far. Jeff Beck, while doing his usual bizarre/amazing whammy stuff, wasn't 'bluesy' AT ALL. It WAS a Blues program. Jeff was erratic at best. I would have liked to have seen Jeff play on a Tele relying only on his fingers. I liked Warren Haynes and Susan Tedeschi dueting on the Etta James number. Trombone Shorty also deserves some praise. Jagger was energetic but ........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NoRomoFan Posted February 28, 2012 Members Share Posted February 28, 2012 Now why would they film it there during an election year? I dont know about you but I think Obama missed his true calling...as an (event / entertainment) promoter. He can spin anything and make it come out in his favor even if it's the truth or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can spin anything and make it come out in his favor even if it's the truth or not Every politician in a government that purports to be a democracy is abolutely pandering to get votes. That said, this administration has hosted music at the whitehouse throughout the term, not just this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members shoeless Posted February 28, 2012 Members Share Posted February 28, 2012 I enjoyed the show for the most part, although it did seem a bit ironic that a bunch of white guys were playing blues for a black president. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
