Kenny Wayne Shepherd & Samantha Fish Rock The OLG Stage

10/7/2023 - Niagara Falls, Canada - Today, we headed north of the border to Niagara Falls, Canada to see a night of blues guitar with Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Samantha Fish performing at the fairly new OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino. We headed up a little early and made it easily over the Lewiston Queenston Bridge into Canada and stopped at Deb's favorite spot, Swiss Chalet, for a preshow dinner. We arrived at Fallsview Casino early and managed to get a little gaming action in. Deb had comp tickets in the upper deck of the very nice 5000 seat OLG Stage that had opened on August of 2022. The show was pretty full but was not quite a sellout. Samantha Fish came out promptly and played a good hour long set of blues. She opened with Bulletproof and did a nice jam on Somebody's Always Trying. She finished the condensed set with Black Wind Howlin'. Again, a good set that was well received by the near sellout crowd. After a short intermission, Kenny Wayne Shepherd and his band hit the stage for a good ninety minute set of some covers and original material both old and new. They did a nice cover of Buffalo Springfield's Mr. Soul and Joe Walsh's Turn To Stone. He jammed out on his classics Deja Voodoo and Shame, Shame, Shame. Shepherd's guitar work was excellent with lots of energy and great runs, Joe Krown added alot with great keyboard work and Noah Hunt on lead vocals was also pretty good. The band came out for a three song encore that included Blue On Black, King Bee and finished the show with Hendrix's Voodoo Child, no surprise. A good show at what is an excellent venue and it was free. We will definitely be back at this venue again.Slideshow
