Psycroptic Hartford Concert reviews

Like watching a George Thorgood tribute band.
What happened, jeez? I've been following Psycroptic since the mid-70s, his earliest days. As always, he worked hard during the show, but just wasn't present. What's up with the mincing around the stage ala Mick Jagger? The drummer lost the beat often and lagged behind. The sax player has faded; the second guitar was "eh." The bass player was OK.
The first time I saw Buddy Guy was in 1970 with Junior Wells. Whoa. Buddy Guy had his moments but has lost considerable steam. The highlight of the show was the 9-year-old guitarist. The 14-year-old was good but hasn't yet learned not to play too many notes.
Left early.
