Nancy Nutile-McMenemy’s photographs at Photos by NanciĮxcerpt from David Singer’s review at The Daily Gazette: “‘We’re going to blow your face out,” Wolf yelled before launching into the next basher. Pete Mason’s review and Jim Gilbert’s photographs at Upstate Live With longtime core members Seth Justman (keyboards), howlin’ harmonicat Magic Dick Salwitz and bassist Danny Klein churning out a non-stop blitz of a performance, the highlights of the night included “Give It to Me” (with rhythms shifting mid-song from reggae to disco-blues), the blues-goes-gospel testifying of “Must of Got Lost,” a super-charged romp through “Lookin’ for a Love” (dedicated to the late Rolling Stones saxman Bobby Keys, who had passed away earlier that day) and Magic Dick’s fiery instrumental showcase, “Whammer Jammer.” They also romped through a couple of their latter-day hits – “Centerfold” and “Love Stinks” – and those were obvious crowd-pleasers. Geils – packed a high-energy, headline-worthy opening set with a breathless, 11-song, 50-minute blast of old-school R&B. Geils Band – which, by the way, no longer includes guitarist J.

Wearing his sparkling, sequined jacket, he was like a human mirror ball. Once he hit the stage and launched into “Hard Drivin’ Man” (following the band’s opening around-the-horn, instrumental rave-up of “Sno-Cone”), Wolf simply could not stop moving.ĭancing… Twirling… Testifying… Stalking the stage. Geils Band at the Times Union Center last week…
I never took a course in Physics, so I’ve always been somewhat flummoxed by Newton’s Law which says something like, “A body in motion tends to stay in motion.” Then I saw Peter Wolf fronting the J.
