OT: Bob Seger tour starts...

Postby Chevypv » Tue Nov 07, 2006 9:31 am

Well, not really, but i did just finish working the first day of rehearsals at the Van Andel in Grand Rapids, and I have to say, I had my doubts be he still sounds great. I mean, he tuned down the songs a step or two, but it sounded good. Got to meet him a little, He's a really great guy. He even drove to the venue in his own personal vehicle from detroit to supervise the setup and do a quick jam session. I get to work tomorrows rehearsal and the concerts wednesday and sunday (stage corner :D ).

From what ive heard he is going to complete the first leg, take a break, and then decide wether he feels up to a second leg...IDK how he can even sing anymore, in 4 hours of rehearsal I saw him smoke a cigarette per break (3)
