My favorite guest of the evening was Marco Benevento. Chad explains why…
8. The Marco effect
Every guest except Sanborn saw one or more of their originals or regular songs get a full-on moe treatment, for example, and a reading of Marco’s “The Real Morning Party” was a subversive delight. Not really collaborative in the sense of the moe guys soloing over a Marco groove, but rather moe as Marco’s backing band for a stretch: the heat of a full band behind the zany keyboardist, and a band that also had clear respect and admiration for the song. Later, Marco had another “Marco moment”: he took hold of Blue Jeans Pizza and shook it up, yielding something that split the difference between circa 2003 Duo jazz-rock and the meatier end of rock ‘n’ roll moe. Marco was the night’s MVP, counting guests and members of moe., and he made his presence felt everywhere.
Be sure to read Chad’s article for the rest of the list. We’ve got the rest of Jeremy’s stunning photos from Friday night so READ ON for the gallery…
