Short-but-sweet set from the legendary Ian Hunter and his band of seasoned ranters, opening for the J Geils Band. I missed recording the set opener, Once Bitten, Twice Shy, because I was in stand-by when I thought I was in record. Rookie error! But hey, I�ve only been taping shows for 34 years so I�m still learning.
Then the monitor system wreaked havoc on the live sound and Ian ended When I�m President halfway through the song. Too bad, for it�s a gorgeous tune. A die-hard fan seized the moment to get her LP signed by Ian while the crew were trying to track down the source of the clicking sounds. I made the pause its own track so the listener can skip it or ditch it. I like the realism of it.
Support the band and buy When I�m President, Rant, Shrunken Heads and all the other great records this man has made!

Ian Hunter, one of the true rock and roll survivors, is still writing, recording, and touring while rockers half his age are, uh, entering middle age.
Thank you to Ian and the band for trekking north with J Geils to bring happiness to all the young and not-so young dudes like myself! Share, enjoy. Don�t sell.
