Melvin and JGB
Forums:
So, Melvin came around locally last night to this sweet lil old church turned venue in Roanoke, VA.. Only holds about 250 people and was sold out.
It was a great show!!!! I slid my way up front and found a cozy space in front of Melvin (he gave me big smiles all night 
).. anyway, my point is ~ this Zach Nugent guy is pretty amazing and they are sounding real good (last time I saw them post-Jerry many years ago, it was NOT a good show lol)..
(Sorry Melvin is sideways 
- I was kinda sideways myself last night..)

It looks like it should be a good one. Hoping they play 3/4/88, that was the only “It’s No Use” in the 80s. Fun show....

I am too, Judit! The music was great, the crowd was vibin' and the venue is so cozy (I admit I was also trying to catch Zach's eye as he's some nice eye candy
)

I saw them in Columbus a couple weeks ago...or maybe last week...who knows? It was great, and Zach Nugent is the shit. He nailed everything and then some.
I'm glad they're still tearing it up.
