Never in my life have I witnessed such a scene. Having come off covering a peaceful hard rock festival, a fight actually broke out at David Gray's visit last night. I ran into an old friend and we were soaking in the show when all of the sudden you hear the unmistakable sound of fist on face. Unreal Louisville, at a shocking level.
Let's not harp on the negative as that was truly the only hiccup in an amazing evening. Love to say I told you so, but he did break out 'Sail Away' and 'Babylon' and the magical evening was really choc full of wondrous sounds of Mutineers. For almost 2 hours David brought the house down, lifted it up, and mixed it up to a flawless level. To say the man is a seasoned veteran is an understatement and the crowd was warm and receptive. Overall a great job by most attendees and to the festive young woman a couple rows back, we know you really 'LOVE YOU DAYVIIID!!!!'
Many thanks to Live Nation, The Palace, and especially Mr. Gray.
