His songs regularly appear in hit movie and TV soundtracks, bridging the gulf between the modern folk sound and the populist traditions of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger. With special guest: Peyton Tochterman

      Each one of them individually can carry a tune, but they don't blend well. There were a few songs that I enjoyed-- mostly those lead by the base singer, Richard--but most of them weren't something I liked. The group vocal blend wasn't strong. As one of my companions put it, "just because you *can* make a sound, doesn't mean you *should*". They also talked waaay too much, they thought they were funnier than they are, at least to me. Overall, we were disappointed and left at intermission. Collapse

      This band has fantastic skills, and a very multi dimensional sound. The location in Natick was nice - easy parking or access to commuter rail, and very intimate.

      One of the best songwriters of his generation, Steve got screwed by his record company and found himself in the position of not being able to play his best loved songs and hits without paying the label execs that where screwi. Trapped with a record his label would not release (it was too good). Go see Steve. He's funny. Insightful. Very talented. And bring some cash and bring friends and have everybody buy every CD he's ever made. He was playing at the Hot Tin Roof on the Vineyard in the 80's and came over to the bar where we where playing on his break. I looked down and there's this little fellow and he drawls, "You all know "Mama Tried." Sure we did. I yelled into the mic, "Ladies and Gentleman, all the way from the Hot Tin Roof", it's Steve Forbert!!!" The place went mad and we rocked that old Merle Haggard tune like nobody's business. Yeah, Steve is a "do not miss". So what are you waiting for? Collapse

      May be my expectations were to high, but I was expecting more professional show. Show was OK, some perfomances were nice,but not as great.

      I have seen Dave Mason three times in the last two years and he and his band put on an exceptional show, both old classics (Traffic and solo) and his new material from 26 Letters 12 Notes. It brings back fond memories of dueling guitars and long jams which you don't see much of any more. TCAN is an incredibly intimate venue (seats about 250), so you will probably never have the opportunity to see him as up close and personal like this again. The show is sold out, but I have four tickets due to unexpected out of town plans and illness for what I paid for them- $43/each. E-mail me at dtandrews@comcast.net if you're interested. Collapse

      Just read "COLD PIZZA FOR BREAKFAST: A Mem-Wha??" by the ever talented, always engaging, full-of-surprises Christine Lavin. Her hilarious reflection of 25 years as a songwriter and performer is hilarious and a great read. She may be signing books in MA but you can pick up a copy where ever fine books are sold, on Amazon, B&N and directly from the publisher Tell Me Press www.tellmepress.com Collapse
