    Hope this one gets some promotion as I remember about the same time last year Aiken had Kenny Wayne Shepherd booked for the same venue and it never happened.... so ticket bought in anticipation.

    These guys were supporting him in Germany , but that could have only been for Germany since i think they are from Germany themselves

    I just witnessed my gig of the year and it will take something special to top it. He played a 2 hour show and for a guy with only 1 studio album and 1 live album that is something. Clutch who have a greater body of work only played for an hour and a half earlier this year.

    The place was jammers with tickets on sale at the door and it was the first gig I have been to where there was no security by the stage.

    Was an absolutely great gig last night, really glad I went!

    My first time in the Button Factory - really nice venue for a small gig. Big crowd there.
    Like earlier poster said he played for 2 hours, some really cool long jams in there! Great guitarist!

    Overall wasn't a bad way to spend a Wednesday night! :D

    Me too.
    I only bought my tickets last week, and was looking forward to it. Unfortunately unavoidable circumstances prevented me from going..

    It was 95% full I'd say and to those of you who missed it, you missed the gig of the year so far. He played for 2 hours and it was a magical 2 hours.
