I have tickets to see Dave Mason & John Mayall. Belly Up Tavern. Solana Beach CA

[maveric]

I've never seen Dave Mason live before but always loved his style and voice. I've seen John Mayall a couple of times during the 70's. He's 74 years old now and still belting out the blues!
This is the first concert I've been to in about 10 years and its a good one for an old boomer like me.

1. That's funny

I saw Son Volt and Varnaline at The Belly Up 10 years ago during my short time in So Cal; it's a great place for live music. You'll have a great time; Mayall still has the goods..

4. Mayall surrounds himself with great musicians too.

Back in 1974 I saw him and halfway through the show he brought Rory Gallagher out to play the rest of the show.
Awesome show!

3. John Mayall played my piano.

I was about 8-9 years old (I'm 47 now). My sister came to the house one evening accompanied by this guy (John Mayall) in a huge coat. He didn't say much to anybody; just kind of grunted, then made his way to the piano. He then hunched over the piano, almost completely hidden by the coat, and quietly played. My sister explained to my parents, who thought the guy was rude, that he was a musician and had a show that night, and always acted that way before a show.
