I didn't see as many shows this year as I did in 2002, but this was the best of the few. Hot Tuna was a distant second. I can't remember much of the details, but a search of the old board got me the attached mini-review that I did after that one;

Los Lobos review at the Wittaker Center. Wow!
Swish - 10:11am Feb 5, 2003


The band played for nearly 2 and a half hours, including the encore which lasted about 30 minutes. I won't do a complete review since YECH just did so last week, but I'll tell you they were smokin'! They played nearly everything from their latest release, Good Morning Aztlan, and plenty of material from their vault of music. Highlights for me? Probably my favorite of the night was their extended version of "Just a Man" from Kiko, with some blistering solo work from David Hidalgo. Another fave was their version of "Little Wing" during the encore. It just blew me away. If you have a chance to see this band live, just do it. You won't regret it.
