Three of us are coming up from the Quad Cities ( Moline, Illinois ) area. Looking forward to seeing these three tear it up. We may all have to go home and throw out our basses after this show!

All I can say is WOW! What an incredible show. As a bass player and music afficinado there is nothing better than seeing three of greatest bass players in the world put on a show in such an intimate environment. The quality of the accompanying musicians was second to none as well. It was truly outstanding.
To top things off, Billy, Stu and Jeff took time after the show to meet all the fans and stayed out at the merchandise table until everyone that wanted a visit, a picture or an autograph got one. They were the most gracious, down to earth guys that I have ever met and all I can say is that these guys are a CLASS ACT! In these days, when so many popular musicians wouldn't give you the time of day, these three gentlemen impressed me with not only the fantastic show but their willingness to participate with the audience. If you get a chance to see this show DO IT! Not only will you get to see some fantastic music but you will get to meet some truly fantastic guys.
Jeff, Stu & Billy, THANK YOU! |

| I too have to say that the show was amazing, and nothing like seeing it up close! You can actually see the strings on the basses. Why anyone would spend hundreds of dollars to 'see' a show at an arena is beyond me. This is not to be missed. The passion and talent shown, the sound heard, and overall good time was awesome. Thank you for the education, entertainment and inspiration. Nice swag too! |

Hey dasphoot, not only did we see the actual bass strings, we saw them vibrating! Seeing super-pros at this level in a small club is heaven.
BTW: Has anyone noticed a familure pattern? Bx3 visits a city, then the very next day, fantastic reviews magically appear on this forum. A coincidence? I think not. |

I don't recall that occuring on Madonna's latest "money grubbing" tour.
At least REAL musicains can get good Word Of Mouth press, the other folks simply pay for it.
This really is a great show for any guitar, drummer, bass or lover of instrumental music. Sure beats YANNI! |
