Banu Gibson and Lutcher Theater


Last night, I joined some friends for a concert at the Lutcher Theater in Orange, Texas. It’s a beautiful theater and they’ve recently done a major upgrade on the sound system. Since I’ve only been to the Lutcher one other time, I’m not qualified to tell you if the sound is vastly improved although the Head-Lutcher-Dude-In-Charge says it is.

The performer last night was Banu Gibson and The New Orleans Hot Jazz. The music was technically excellent but a little antiseptic for my tastes. Could it be that I’ve become so accustomed to tribute bands and up-and-coming local musicians that I’m immune to the charms and talents of more polished musicians?

Sometimes, I'm such a redneck.
