...doing an impressive job of playing two saxes simultaneously in "The Two Horny Blues." And finally an encore was played with Bela on zither banjo, Coffin on flute, "Future Man" tapping a Spanish percussion box and Victor Wooten on cello.

Even the Jerry Garcia look-alikes were moving. Scary, yes. Surprising, no. The Crowes and their distinctive, hard edge rock and roll strike a beat that is hard to deny...
Finally a reason to leave Harvard and head toward Amherst. Wait a second? But seriously, don't miss this. Bob Dylan and Natalie Merchant are putting on a concert, and as far as any one can tell, Bob may not hang in there for that much longer. Mullins Center, Amherst...
