    Avg. Event Rating (4.0 Stars): 4 out of 5 stars rating Add Review/Comment

    As diverse as he is crazy good on stage, Dan Hicks has played with everyone from Willie Nelson to Gibby Haynes of the Butthole Surfers. His blend of jazz, western swing-pop and ironic humor shines brighter with torch singer Michelle Shocked.

        Although we didn't stay for Dan Hicks (there was an interim act "Mary's Corvette?" that would have been acceptable had she bothered to tune her guitar - it was painful - a pity. Michelle Shocked was extremely entertaining, animated, crazed, self-medicated, funny, irreverent and all-in-all whacky musically tight fine time. The horn player (Chris Armstrong or something like that) was beyond elegant - first time I can recall hearing solo trumpet that was what I'd call "delicate" - great variety, much too short - whole show could have been this most fine group (Michelle on guitar, electric bass, lead electric guitar, drummer, keyboard and trumpet) - 5+ stars on this - can't speak to Dan Hicks as we didn't stay for him - wish that the interim group hadn't happened...
