2001.07.10 Healing Sixes at Revolution in Cleveland Ohio

The band featured Jason Bonham at the time. Turck and I drove out to see them. They put on a good show for all of about 20 people. The date did not appear on the band's website, but was on Pollstar. The band was definitely solid. Bonham was not exactly at his best. The place was hot and he was complaining a lot about the heat and seemed to just want to turn around and go home. He was drinking a beer with one hand and drumming with the other at various times.

I saw him on VH1's Supergroup and it seems that he's been sober for a while now, which I think is probably for the best in his situation. His dad used to drink a lot on the road because he disliked being away from his family. Jason said he used to drink for that reason as well.

Anyway, the Sixes played some Zep covers. When the Levee Breaks was great, and No Quarter and Sick Again were also done well. The keyboard portion of No Quarter was done on guitar with an effects pedal.

Their original music was good too, and I bought an advance copy of Enormosound that I still listen to regularly.

The flash obliterated my nose on this picture, but this is me with the lead singer, Doug Henthorn (who went on to sing on Joe Bonamassa's cover of Zeppelin's Tea For One on Joe's 2006 You & Me album).
