...Mason's choice of material for his current tour is concerned. Although I've never seen Mason in concert, his previous live recordings suggest he will be quite impressive and will be backed up by a group of highly accomplished musicians. Mason will be appearing October 24 at the Orpheum. Tickets are $4.50, 5.50 and 6.50 and are available at the box office, Out-of-Town, and Minuteman-Soundscope...
Bonnie Raitt. Those who have repeatedly missed her can catch Bonnie Raitt at the Orpheum this Monday. Only this time it's going to run you double the price of her previous series of concerts: which is not to say you shouldn't go. Bonnie remains one of the few white, female vocalists who does justice to the blues. What's more, she has markedly increased her range of musical styles resulting in variety coupled with virtuosity. If for no other reason, Bonnie deserves praise for showing the world you don't need a Harvard diploma to make a name...
...electric fiddle, in addition to lead, pedal steel, and slide guitar. Although you won't be able to see both Jackson and Bonnie in concert together, you can see them separately, monetary conditions permitting.

In fact, the sole trace manifested itself in three heavily made-up girls clothed in black, one of whom my brother mistook for a distaff Lou Reed.

I had almost hoped for a Cinderella-like transformation of the Orpheum into an aggrandizement of Reed's virtual birthplace, Max's Kansas City...
...country-rock. Hillman went from the Byrds to the now defunct Flying Burrito Brothers, after which he spent some time with Stephen Stills's group, Manassas. Although not a critic's band, this group does have a hit single, "Falling in Love," which is gradually climbing the charts. Orpheum theater, October 11 at 7 p.m. Tickets are $4.50, 5.50, 6.50 and are available at the box-office, Minuteman-Soundscope, and Out-of-Town...
