Sweet Baby James and Jackson B all in July

So this has been an incredible couple of days for gigs!
Yesterday morning I found out that one of my heroes Jackson Browne was the special guest on the couple of dates that Jonathan Wilson was doing here in London this week (Thank You Twitter). So I duly booked my tickets for the show last night at the Borderline in Soho and held my breath in the hope that the rumours were indeed true. As these picture can testify they were.....

It was a great show and we were treated to Browne classics "These Days" and "Take it Easy" and Dawes (his backing band along with Jonathan Wilson) were great in their own right too! Check them out: http://www.dawestheband.com/

On Sunday I got to see another of my idols James Taylor in Cardiff - another brilliant show from one of the founding fathers of the 'Laurel Canyon Collective' along with Jackson Browne. He finished the set with "You've Got A Friend" the Carole King classic!

I think next on my list of people I need to see live is The Boss.....!
