He actually didn't come to my town, I drove from Detroit to Milwaukee to see his solo acoustic show.
It was the best show I've ever seen. There wasn't a lot of flashy guitar playing because Ian is concentrating more on the songs these days.
I'm planning a road trip to Austin in a few weeks to see him again.

Ditto. He has been a huge influence on me - guitar - songwriting and VOICE -wow.
We opened for him in May 2000 here in Albuquerque. What an honor.

He has stayed true to his musical vision regardless of the hardship it has put him through. I respect his integrity

I'm driveing to Austin to see him on 8/12, and then to Houston on 8/13.
Can't think of a better reason to take a road trip.

It's good to find some people who know who Ian Moore is. He's so good at everything it is ridiculous. I saw him one yr in college around 1994. I had nothing to do as it was the Friday after finals. Went to check him out not knowing anything, and BLAM...he laid it down like no one I have ever seen. And I agree, as good as his guitar playing is, his singing is even better. At one of his concerts I was next to this big biker lookin guy and Ian had him crying during "Blue Sky"...

The trip to Texas was well worth it.
Great songs from a great guy.
I've become a bit obsessed with his music lately. It's actually hard for me to listen to anything else. And all the Colors has been in my CD player since I got back from Texas last month and it refuses to get old.

I saw him at a small but elegant club in '97-ish, in S.F. His set was great, and then I think he got irked at management because they flickered the lights on and off, I guess in an effort to tell him, "Hey, wrap it up." He cued his band, and they launched into a super-fierce reading of "Spanish Castle Magic", which Ian capped with some gloriously raging feedback; over the din, he yells at the band, and then came a furious "Love Or Confusion", which he also finished in front of his Clubman, whammying the daylights out of his Strat; another shout-out, and they finished off with "Fire", and more feedback fireworks. To this day, I'm amazed that the Clubman survived it: by the end, Ian was feeding it a full-up '69 pedal, and at least the front end of a Fulldrive, and the Clubman was cranked. Needless to say, we all went home very happy. I think he did, too--we were whooping and hollering like crazy people.

I was one of the first to order the newDVD and it's great. I've been a fan of Ian for a long time.

Having owned a Matchless Clubman I don't doubt that it can take a beating. Those things are built like tanks!! Thety weigh almost 60lbs
