Bobby Yang

As I've mentioned in the past, the opportunities for quality free live music around here are astounding.

Last Sunday evening was yet another example. In Snowmass Village, The Samples were performing.

But better yet, at Aspen Highlands' apres ski, Bobby Yang, my former neighbor, was performing at ZG Grill.

Bobby started at approximately 3:30 pm and just kept on keeping on. He finished some time just shy of 10 pm.

Unbelievable.

Bobby, who's been called a heavy metal violinist, performs really high energy instrumental arrangements of many well known rock tunes and consistently rocks the house. I bought both of his CDs and like them both, but recommend the newer one, Yang It! Bobby Yang Live at Eddie's Attic, more highly since it better captures the energy he generates onstage.

Steve and I also saw him on Valentine's Day at BellyUp Aspen and he rocked there too.

The only problem with that show was that it was past our bedtime . . .
