What an incredible group of musicians Robert Plant has assembled for his latest venture, the Band of Joy. The group took over the Beacon Theater the last two nights in New York City as their tour moves on, which I guess can be labeled a 'world tour' since Plant mentioned a summer stop in Russia.
The opening act was solid with the North Mississippi All-Stars getting the crowd warmed up. Plant interacted nicely with the crowd, which ranged from teenagers to people in their 60s. He made a few jokes in between songs and kept things moving along during the nearly two-hour set. It was also very clear how much he was enjoying himself on stage with the other musicians.
By the way, the Band of Joy consists of Patty Griffin (vocals and guitar), Buddy Miller (guitar and vocals), Darrell Scott (vocals, guitar, mandolin, etc.), Byron House (bass) and Marco Giovino (drums).
As soon as I see some YouTube videos from last night I will post them.
