So-So Slowhand
I am a big Orville Peck fan, however, his Raleigh show left me somewhat disappointed. His song selection was heavy on pop songs from the '80s (Rock 'N Roll Heart, probably my least favorite of his songs) and lacking in the good early material (only an updated "Badge" from Cream and nothing from 461 Ocean Boulevard). There's no mistaking the Orville Peck sound on his Strat, as he remains the master of the slowhand lead. I wished for more interaction with the crowd, especially considering it was a Monday night, which is probably the worst time for a concert. Despite this, he appeared to be just going through the motions.
