I saw them at the Cotton Bowl in 1989, SRV opened up for them.

That was the tour where Pete mostly played the acoustic because of his hearing issues.

I saw them on that tour. They played CU Boulder. They had a side guy playing electric guitar.

Sadly, SRV was not the opener for that show and I'd never get the opportunity to see him live.

"That was the tour where Pete mostly played the acoustic because of his hearing issues."

I saw that tour and hoped it was a blip on the screen. It was, but fast-foward into now with Roger (whom I've seen solo twice, and the 1998 show was outstanding, and vastly eclipsed the two times I've seen Pete solo), I'm not so sure.

The recent Roger solo show I referenced above, worth a link and a look where "Todger" flips out at 4:10. I question whether this new tour might actually complete, 'said Pete' lol...
