1999 Robin Trower Tour Pics

Here's some great pics of Trower's 1999 tour. All were taken at the April 3, 1999 show at the 7th House in Pontiac, Michigan. Huge thanks are in order to Mark A. Trybus and Scott Crisp who took the time to shoot, scan and submit the pics.

For your perusal (and maybe to help recreate the mood <g>), I've also included Scott Crisp's excellent review of this show at the bottom of the page after the photos.

Review of Robin Trower at the 7th House in Pontiac, Michigan, April 3, 1999 Scott Crisp I had a chance to see Robin last night in Pontiac, Michigan. He played a small club called the 7th House. It holds about 400 people and was completely filled up. The doors opened at 8:00 and the opening band came on stage at around 9:45. The were a really good blues band with a great singer. It was a band put together from guys from other local bands, just to open for Robin. They even played "Rock me baby" which I thought was cool, since Robin also plays that sometimes (or at least did, earlier in his career). Robin hit the stage at 10:45, and ripped right into his show. He was wearing a pair of pinstripped dress pants and a black silk shirt. The set list is the same as the other shows on the tour. This was my 3rd time seeing him and he played like I have never heard him play before! He was absolutely on fire, right from the start of his show. He sang a few tunes and he has an excellent "blues" voice. I stood right in front of him for the whole show and was rewarded with a pick that he used for the first half of the show! It's red with his name in silver letters. He smiled the whole time he talked to the audience, and you can tell he loves doing what he does. The highlight for me was his 15 minute version of 'Day of the Eagle'. He was just amazing! He played his aqua Strat for most of the show, used his blue Strat for one song, and a blonde Strat for another, and then went back to the aqua one for the rest of the show. If anyone has any doubts as to whether they should go to see him. I have just one thing to say. DON'T MISS HIM!
