Thanks to our friend Bob from Reading, PA for these pics.

 

Attached are some photos I took at the Chameleon Club last Thursday
(Lancaster, PA), what a GREAT show!!!! It's been ~20 years since I saw NRPS
live. Do you know where I can find set lists? I checked Setlist.com, but
there wasn't any posted for this tour yet. I was having too much fun to
remember to jot them down myself, the band was rockn,
just a really great show man. Opened w/ LA Cowboy-RainbowContract.......Crooked Judge and Dirty Biz in the first set! David tore up 15 Days in an amazing second set that ended up with Let it Bleed and Ripple.   Enjoy the photos.....It's great to see the NRPS back Home, Home on the Road.

-Bob

There are more, I will post later.

Well, folks, my bro (AKA the World Traveler) will be attending the Big Show at the Mystic in Petaluma.  As my regular readers know, he flew by himself to Danielson for the initial concert for the new tour.  I, sadly, will not be able to attend.  But even though he now has his own NRPS site, hopefully he’ll throw a little our way.  Maybe he will send some pics, set list or a review of the show.  Hope that he and sis-in-law have a great time hanging out with the guys.  This is the show everyone from the Bay Area will be at.  For any of you who may also be in attendance, check out his TheBakerBros.com so you can see what he looks like.  That way you can introduce yourself and hang out.  He will most likely be wearing a Buddy Cage t-shirt, NRPS hat and/or Levi jacket with large NRPS patch on it.  He says he may be there until Monday, so check him out!!

My Bro posted this as a comment, I want to make it a new thread.

 

okay, setlist as follows: Henry/Lonesome L.A. Cowboy/Rainbow/Whiskey/Contract/Garden of Eden/Truck Drivin Man/Sunday Suzie/Dirty Business/Runnin Back to You/Take a Letter, Maria/ 2nd set:Portland Woman/Willie and the Handjive/I Dont Know You/Groupie/Louisana lady/Last Lonely Eagle/Panama Red...No encore because it was past 1 am, and the cops would shut em down if any noise was made past 1.
It was a GREAT show, faithfully recreated, not note for note mind you. but as a great man once said;"If you want note for note, go listen to Perry Como"
I met alot of friends that night, some of which had been "email friends only". I called em, "the best friends I never met". Well, now I met em, and Im happy to say we're real friends now! People like Buddy,Leslie, David, Jan, Patti, Johnny, Ronnie, Michael, Heather, Kevin, and that Great lady, the owner of the bar..(Im so sorry, I forgot your name, but Thank you for everything!) and many others.
I kinda got stranded there, for I couldnt catch a bus back to the airport at that late hour, and was gonna miss my flight. Everyone began asking around, and came up with Heather, who was willing to take me the 40 miles to the Green airport in Providence, RI. She was very nice for doing that, and I thank her publicly here. Thanks, Heather!
Thats all I can think of, off hand. Any questions I can answer, post em here, I'll do my best !
Thanks everyone, IT WAS WORTH EVERY MILE! -Rick Baker PS pics to follow soon...
