Anthony Gomes - Jan 12 2008

Anthony Gomes

About a month ago as I was skimming through the upcoming live music calendar for the Double Door Inn I noticed that Anthony Gomes was scheduled to be in town on Jan 12th. I updated my outlook calendar to be sure I was reminded of that show. So when Saturday evening rolled around I went to the Double Door a bit early. First I wanted to try to get a seat up front to take a few photos and I also wanted to keep tabs on the score of the Patriots game. Anyway, my anticipation of this show was met by the delivery of Anthony as he has certainly not lost his zeal for entertaining with the blues. As he says - music is the medicine..

As in previous shows I have seen, Anthony played a brilliant blues guitar, complete with his ballads, blistering guitar play and a bit of rock and gospel blended in to keep it real. Anthony has a new live CD coming out in February. He played a number of the new songs this Saturday night - enough that I've put a reminder on the claendar to order me a copy next month. I'd suggest you do the same.

Members of the band are: Anthony Gomes on lead guitar and lead vocals; David Karns on Bass; Peter Lang on Drums; Dylan St. John on Keyboards. Anthony's home page is here.
