I thought Gary Clark Jr.'s set was disappointingly subdued. Where was the power and intensity he unleashed on his live album? He didn't bring it to Rochester. At one point he commented that he'd been keeping himself under control but would no longer do so; I couldn't tell the difference. Sad to say, but I was underwhelmed.
