notes: This show was at a low ceiling cellar bar. Almost hit my head while standing on the bench at the back. The sound system was barely adequate. The sound guy did his most to get a good sound going, but failed during the support band's show. It was OK-ish during Johnny's concert. About 60 people attended.

(*) Tzar is Michael and Brian's band.

Johnny started his current band around 1996 or so and, in my opinion, peaked commercially around 2006. Since then he changed musical styles ever so often that he seems to have alienated his audience, attracting less and less people to his shows. Which is a shame because his music and shows are still world class. So this recording his is for all of you who're sticking by him!
