Saw this performance last night at the Rhythm Room in Phoenix. Great show. Dave Alvin is a great guitar player, songwriter and story teller. Phil's a great singer and harmonica player who added much to an already great act we saw a couple of years back at the Compound Grill. This is the second time I've seen this drummer who is stunning in more ways than one - her solo on Dry River was something to behold (visually and sonically).

Rhythm Room is turning into my favorite small venue - saw Adrianna Marie and Savoy Brown in addition to this show in the last couple of weeks.

  They were selling the vinyl but when I went back to get one they had sold out.

I saw them at Rock n Bowl last year. Great show it is good to see them back together again, maybe we will see a Blasters tour.

  Saw the Blasters (no Dave) with X towards the end of 2013. I've liked the Blasters since the early 80s.

    I still kick myself for no going to see X at Voodoo fest 2013, I went to see Ray Davis instead, I love Ray but saw the Kinks a few times, never saw X though. I vaguely remember seeing the Blasters in S.F. back in the 80's.

    Saw The Blasters, once with both Steve Berlin and the late very great Lee Allen, a couple times in the 80's. Best time I ever had in a bar. If you could bottle that energy...
