Adrian Belew Power Trio at ISIS Music Hall, Asheville, NC, May 4, 2017

Funky opening set by Saul Zonana, followed by the Power Trio in full form. Great set of Belew instrumental and vocal solo songs, a generous dollop of Crimson, a Bowie, with teasers of Zappa fills (I caught Magic Fingers and Inca Roads -- were there others?). The unfortunately named ISIS is a great venue -- the sound was clear and powerful, stage was very accessible, and the band could really interact with the crowd.

Thanks to André who keeps bringing the Power Trio back to Asheville!
