Last night was awesome once again. We were treated to our 5th free jam band of the summer courtesy of Buffalo Place at the “Thursday In The Square” concert series.
The John Butler Trio jammed out for two solid hours. The set started with “I Used To Get High” at 7pm and closed out with a three song encore just after 9pm.
The highlight of the show was a 6 minute drum solo in the middle of “Good Excuse” where drummer Michael Barker lit the crowd up. At one point I had to pull my head away from my video camera to check and see if there was a 2nd drummer on the stage with him because he was playing with drum sticks in one hand and with the other hand he was playing percussions.
Thanks to Daniel Goodwin has already uploaded a recording of the show to The Archive. (click for details.)

Here’s a few songs performed live at the show last night. I was able to video tape the entire set so I will be posting more songs to YouTube over the weekend.
enjoy!

Better Than:
My summer of jams continues this week with a free show at Thursday In The Square featuring Australian roots/jam band John Butler Trio. I’ve been looking forward to this show ever since the scheduled was announced earlier this summer.
JBT has taken the country by storm with it’s latest album “Grand National” whcih was produced by Mario Caldato Jr. who also produce albums by the Beast Boys, Beck, and Jack Johnson.
Their summer tour has included shows in UK, France, Australia, Germany, and state side at jam fest’s Bonnaroo , Wakarusa, and a show just last month at Redrocks.
Your last chance after Thursday to catch JBT live in the states this summer will be Saturday August 4th at the Newport Folk Festival before they head back down under for a two month tour.
Here’s a sample of JBT playing in Australia. They will also be featured on the Tonight Show on Tuesday night singing “Better Than” so be sure to tune in for that as well.
