SAM's pictures >> 02-26-04 >> tribeca >> new york, ny

From my Inbox:

Hey, My name is Sam from Monsey, NY. I went to see Eric at the Tribeca Rock Club NYC w/ my parents. Man, what a show! I've never seen anybody play slide guitar that fast.

I first became of fan of Eric when I first watched the Steve Vai: Live at the Astoria London DVD. During the extended version of "the Attitude Song," Steve had this guy with a Dobro come out and jam with him. I was amazed when this guy did some of the coolest slide solos I've ever heard. So I vowed to find out more about him, and I ordered all 3 of his CDs a few weeks later.

Back to the show, prior to the performance, me and my dad managed to go backstage and meet Eric and the band. One of the things that I liked is that He's really humble and very nice. He took the time to autograph my CD covers and even gave me one of his finger picks! Only downside: I had a brain cramp and I forgot to bring my camera down with me, so no Money Shot. Oh well, maybe next time.

I also took some pics of the two opening acts - Super400 and Crossbow. They were pretty good - unlike so many modern rocks acts, they actually had guitar solos (seems like soloing is making a comeback). I even bought Super400's CD and had the bass player sign it - and managed to take a picture with her.

Well anyway I took some nice pics, which I give the links to - I tried to send a zip file, but it was just to darn big. I have the other pics besides Eric too - I hope you don't mind. (Super400 is the one with the female bass player.) Here you go:

villager journal >> sept 24-30, 2003 >> blues in the park: keeping tradition alive

EXCERPT: Headlining this year's event was Eric Sardinas, a West Coast guitar-slinger, who along with his rhythm section of drum and bass, evoked memories of Johnny Winter and the late Stevie Ray Vaughan… The Dobro-playing Sardinas, draped completely in black, wowed those in attendance with the mastery of his instrument, tossing off fiery bottleneck riffs with machine-gun precision…

Mmmm, and Mmmm, and some more Mmmm. What a show! We had a blast last night. Eric was sweet, Mike was sweet, and I just love Paul. He was very cool, and wow, what a bass player. Anyway, back to the show....how fucking smoking is that man, huh? Shit, I was just blown away by his talent, and I sure let him know so. Very nice guy, personable too. I'll send ya a few pics. I didn't take that many, I like to just watch, and enjoy the show.

Let me know if you get these.
