They played one last year in May 2008 as a benefit for a sick friend. It was AMAZING. After 25+ years they did their whole show with one nights rehearsal. <br /><br />See ya&#39;ll on the 28th.<br /><br />- Cal CooperAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22418733.post-4990116303688399612009-07-01T18:50:39.285-07:002009-07-01T18:50:39.285-07:00Jerry Riggs is a first class act all the way. Not only is he an extremely talented and accomplished musician, but a very nice, down to earth man who&#39;s classiness exudes him in every way.<br /> I feel so fortunate to have the opportunity to watch the Bobby Friss Band and hear Jerry Riggs play guitar.<br />It never gets old, it&#39;s always a lot of fun, and he adds so much to the whole experience.<br /> Margie, Grafton, WIMargiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16038537441653576671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22418733.post-35994980465683668882009-04-27T14:17:00.000-07:002009-04-27T14:17:00.000-07:00Is there any way I could trouble you for a new upload to Riggs - "Christine" (my email is listed here)?

My wife and I spent many many nights hanging out with Jeremy, listening to him pick and play, cuz he was NEVER without his guitar. He always fondly recalled his friendship and playing days with Jerry Riggs,(which was normal for us because who in Hollywood wasnt famous or connected?) and as I was always a huge Pat Travers fan that added to our commonality. I have great memories of those long ago days, and a great Pat Travers show we saw in Glendale, California escorted by Jeremy, with fun well into the night... I'm still a huge PT fan and would love to see Jerry play sometime if we ever get to Florida.John (nightpoett)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22418733.post-55380760641072281162009-03-31T05:11:00.000-07:002009-03-31T05:11:00.000-07:00i have watched jerry play at bike week for years andi can tell anyone togo see this man play he keeps it live and new itsreally a treat to see what he does to a guitar plus he is one remarkable person thank you!evilknardlyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11011917341998959995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22418733.post-57763746891986684522009-03-14T14:59:00.000-07:002009-03-14T14:59:00.000-07:00Finally saw some Riggs recently on YouTube...<BR/>I am so proud to have seen them play in New York.

Have enjoyed the privilege of meeting him and watching him perform - he is an amazing guitar player with a down-to-earth personality. Would love to download the Riggs album, but get advertising when I click on a song. Please advise.

I JUST WANT TO SAY THANKS FOR POSTING THIS GREAT RECORD ON LINE. JERRY RIGGS IS AN OLD PAL OF MINE FROM WAY BACK THOUGH I HAVE NOT SEEN HIM IN YEARS. I PLAYED BASS IN A BAND CALLED THE SWINGING RICHARDS BACK IN THOSE DAYS AND WE HAD SOME GOOD TIMES. THE BAND RIGGS WAS ALWAYS MY FAVORITE. IN FACT JEREMY GRAF THE OTHER GUITAR PLAYER FROM THE BAND RIGGS,JOINED OUR BAND (THE SWINGING RICHARDS) FOR A SHORT TIME AFTER THE RIGGS BREAKUP. THEN HE WAS REPLACED WITH A GUITAR PLAYER NAMED HODDY RIDARIC.HODDY WAS THE BROTHER OF THE BASS PLAYER FROM RIGGS(DAVE DIDARIC). LATER ON THE RICHARDS BROKE UP AND WE FORMED A NEW BAND CALLED CAESAR SPEAKS.ONE OF OUR GUITAR PLAYERS WAS PETER STROUD. HE NOW PLAYS FOR SHERYL CROW. YEP WE WERE, AND STILL ARE ONE BIG FAMILY HERE DOWN SOUTH! ALSO A BIG HELLO TO BUTCH WEAVER AND ALL THE FRIENDS FROM THE BEST ROCK CLUB IN ATLANTA, CHARLEY MCGRUDERS!!!!!!!!!MAY GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU, vic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
