    Saw Candlebox last night in Nashvegas 01/15/13
    ajay says (17 Jan '13)

    Saw them last night @ the Mercy Lounge. Got a surprise when they brought Kenny Olsen on for the last song. Kenny can tear it up on guitar. He can play some blues and some kick ass rock n' roll.

    Funny thing is i nearly walked into him when i came in and had no idea. When they brought him onstage and said who he is immediately knew who he was.

    They said a badass from Detroit. Does Kenny still live in Detroit or has he taken up residence in Nashville now like so many others?

So great you got a chance to see him, still miss him so much. Live, he was an incredible lead, and he is a pretty wonderful guy.

Wow! Candlebox!?! Last I saw them was in early 90's when they were opening for Metallica out in huge dirt lot close to Mexican border (now full of houses)..."Far Behind" was the song I loved...had to look it up on Bing. Glad they are still kicking ass!!

Long time since I have heard the band named Candlebox. I bet that was a treat getting to see Kenny O. You will ace those state boards.. I can tell you are hard headed just by how you write..lol Your will is too strong not to ace them boards. My thoughts are with you.

Yeah i got pics on facebook of Kenny and Candlebox. Didn't have the time to do a proper show review. Studying for state boards. Take a break now and then to internet.

START praying folks is all i can say! Wanna take boards ONE time! Want to keep the test date to myself when i get it. DON'T NEED THE ADDED STRESS! So many ppl wanna know my business but i am keeping it private. I will probably say after i test....well, if i pass that is! IF not i will probably cry like a baby, get adamant and study my ass off and take a run @ them again! I am a hard head!
