The 5 concerts given by Gerry Joe Weise and his trio were a great success. Apart from the blues fans, many musicians of note, dropped-in to check out the hot Australian guitarist who played incredible blues solos during the 5 nights. Some musicians braved-it by going up on stage for a jam-session. The most memorable one was Wednesday night by Mickey Finn (Heavy Metal Kids, Jimmy Page, Nino Ferrer, Higelin), where Finn and Weise jammed on "Honky Tonk Women" and "Jumpin' Jack Flash" to perfection : you had the feeling that Mick Jagger would drop-in any moment. You have to give credit to Gerry Joe Weise and his original brand of Australian Northern Territory and Tex-Mex mix of spiced guitar solos with vocals, and arrangements of original and classic blues.
