Robben Ford Discussion

Photos of the recent music and comedy cruise at http://www.showboatcruises.com/photos.htm

Some great shots of Robben (and of some whales ... and some birds ... and some rocks ...). But where are the photos of Anne's shows? From the looks of it, more photos will be posted as more passengers send them in or link them up.

Was anyone on this BBS on the cruise?

I was there. Great fun. The bottom pick is Ford, Tom Scott, Harvey Mason, Michael McDonald, Neil Stubenhaus. A lot of great music. Rehearsals were open. Ford played with McDonald, Tom Scott and Bob James with various combinations of others. Anne joined him when he played with Bob James for one tune, but was mostly singing in a smaller venue on the ship with a more intimate setting.

Mike: Great shots! I really envy you for having been on the cruise. Also: Robben doesn't wear glasses on stage all that often, but I guess the combination of turning 53 last December and having to deal with charts on a music stand has caused him to join the rest of us half-blind middle-aged mortals. Except that he still looks cooler in glasses than I'd look even if I had contacts, a hair transplant, and a box into which I could put the extra 20 pounds I've been dragging around for about the past 10 years.

Robben has it at home. He was going to bring it on this tour but decided at the last minute that GA&F was more of a LP gig.
