“Lukas Nelson Blew my F*@!$#G FACE OFF!”
Monday, September 23rd, 2013

by: Marc S. Boriosi
This last Saturday I had the opportunity and pleasure to witness one of the greatest annual music events spanning the last 28 years to grace and hopefully help save our planet. FARM AID 2013! This year wonderfully hosted in the beautiful, inviting and very receptive Saratoga Springs, NY.
So, I ask…what do you get when you combine the looks of Brad Pitt, the charisma of Johnny Depp, the wisdom of a music legend and the guitar stylings of a God?
Lukas Nelson!
The lineup at any Farm Aid is at the very least spectacular and this year’s was no different. One would be hard-pressed to pick a favorite among these performers as there is no doubt a debate would ensue. Pointless anyway…at this level of talent, no one would be wrong!
I will get into other aspects of the show in other postings, but for now let me just say that “Lukas Nelson, backed with perfection by Promise Of The Real, BLEW MY F*@!$#G FACE OFF!”
Lukas and POTR’s set was flawless, a testament to what makes live music a true force of nature! They exemplified the reason why festivals of this caliber and with such a serious message remain so effective and persist. Lukas and POTR literally, figuratively and physically shake people and if people don’t wake the hell up, stand the hell up and get the hell moving…nothing changes. Even if this was the first time seeing and hearing Lukas and POTR, a mouth-dropping, awe-inspiring, attention-demanding response was inevitable.
Lukas Nelson’s talent is on par with the very best I have seen and I am not alone. During later performances when other musicians, from the annals of music history, wished to pump up their set like it was on steroids, they called on Lukas and Lukas did not disappoint. It was as clear to me as it was to them that the adding of Lukas Nelson to any song was like capturing and then shattering a jar of lightening.
Bottom line: If Lukas & POTR tour anywhere near you…GET TO THAT SHOW!
In April of 2012 Lukas Nelson & Promise Of The Real released their sophomore album ‘Wasted’ on Tone Tied Records and is available on Amazon and iTunes. However, to be honest, I just ordered it on vinyl. These guys on vinyl just make sense.

“you guys I AM DONE !!!! I got great feedback at zeega so looks like you all are gonna hang in a major museum this week in SF!!! I hope I got everyone (plus a few Larry and Joy and Zack ) from our magical weekend I heard that it will be featured part of the exhibit XOXOXOXOXOXOOXO you guys my love letter to everyone – thanks for letting me go through your pictures (I think I asked everyone) let me… know if you see one that belongs to you that I didnt mention you I tried !! ) Lindsey I did not ask but I took one of you because you were missing from the collage. My concept is the relationships and lives that are touched by the Nelson family music and the love it generates in the world that we take with us in our hearts and spread like wildfire until we need another recharge from our next show! You either understand it or you don’t but you cannot deny how REAL the bond is. LOVE YOU ALL!!! — Mary Jane Lane
Promise of the Real fan and music lover Mary Jane Lane from California shared this photo of her video installation on display at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. How cool is that? The video features a Gathering of Promise of the Real Fans in Austin last month. The installation will be up for next couple of days. Here is link to slide show: here
