RockStar Date - January 22nd 2016

The Fox Theater     Oakland , Ca.

The Devil Makes Three , Parker Milsap

  Another last minute find that was spectacular & super fun ! I was sold when I saw their picture, girl w/ stand-up bass, guy w/ banjo , and another guy w/ a sweet bluesy steel looking guitar !!

  I forwarded to Lisa & she tells me her co-worker just told her about this same great band ! Somehow tickets were still available & dirt cheap at $27 ???Stars aligned once again !

 We missed the opener unfortunately but were in time to get a nice spot near stage in front of the giant bass befoe they came on . :-)

  What a show! They rocked every song, the crowd was crazy fun & somehow even had a little moshing going on . Opposite of heavy metal really but great bass beats , crazy picking , fun lyrics - just made for a bouncing good time .

  It was a young crowd , almost comical at one point a kid yells out " this Is The Best Concert Ever!" He sounded like this was maybe his second ever lol . No offense to anyone , glad everyone enjoyed & far be it from me to say how to express your fun! Glad to see the young people out supporting music too!

  The preview write up said they were drumless but the did have a drummer for most songs , it was a really nice small basic kit , and he was barely tapping on it most of the time . Was amusing and I imagine hard to play so lightly ha ha. Very cool - love seeing things different than the usual. Also had a fiddler on a few songs , more fun fun fun.   

   No. 7 was a crowd favorite and I was glad because was one I had stumbled on before hand & had hoped they'd play. Besides being a fan of Mr .Jack lol .

  The Devil Makes Three are definitely on our radar now & we'll go see them again any chance we get . Already looking forward to next time .  Love it when find a new band !  Not that they are new , just to us . :-)

  Thanks again to the Fox for getting great shows , keeping general admission floor , & low prices lol !

  Only got a picture of set list & not good one at that , will take little research to make clear lol .
