Peter Frampton 8/23/09
Due to the Dogg selling our tickets to Blink 182, Fall Out Boy, and Panic at the Disco, the Townesman was left to rot on the couch watching the Lions & Tigers lose. I was bummed all night thinking about what I was missing.
The lovely BLT, with best bud "Dancin" Debbie in tow, took forth to the Peter Frampton show at Meadowbrook, for a well deserved ladies night out. Despite an unseasonably cool August night, the ladies were surprized to see a near sell out crowd when they took their 2oth row , center seats. As usual, Frampton did not disappoint his fans. A set crammed with all his hits like Show Me the Way, Baby I love Your Way, I give you Money, Lines on my Face, and of course, Do you Feel Like we Do was played flawlessly, with great crowd response. A special treat was an accoustical set during the middle of the show. A cove of "Black Hole Sun" brought the house down! Throw in a couple of new songs, one of wich both gals described as a "yawner" about Winston Churchill.
At the end of the show, BLT & Deb both agreed they saw a very enjoyable night of classic rock. Both wished for the Frampton of 1976, with the long flowing locks of hair. But agreed he looks damn good for a 62 year old dude.
