And all I can say (sing) about these perspicacious reviews (while  nodding my 
head in admiration at Smo-Joe's nailing just what it is about Jason  that's 
so special), and being happy for Lenny for getting to see Jason and New  Blood 
Live, is:
 
"Another one bites the dust 
Another one bites the dust 
And another  one gone, and another one gone 
Another one bites the dust "  
 
;)
 
 
.... Brad said it so well: the momentum is building.
 
If anyone still hasn't seen just what it is that sets Jason  & New Blood 
apart, here's a repeat from August 10, 2007 from  Mexicali, Teaneck, NJ:  
(Fullscreen the video....and turn up your speakers,  you'll be glad you did)...

and this one:  From Harpin Help 2007 - an example of the hours-long  non-stop 
ferocity, energy and brilliant harp playing with which Jason performs  
onstage:

Watching Jason  perform (as WELL as listening) is a sensual experience  
(in MY  estimation). Not at all like watching someone who is road  
weary or  burning out from too much repetition merely going through  
the motions.  Not like watching a quasi-corpse up there with a  
strained face as they  try to come up with something that will hold  
your  interest.

Jason & 'Da blood' give it everything. Each and  every time. It  
doesn't matter if there are 23 people there, 77, or  260. They LIVE  
it. They are a premier 'Live' group.  Sure,  recordings are great, but  
live is what makes THIS group come alive. I  have seen a few concerts  
in my time, and always preferred gentle jazz,  light rock, and  
subtleness. But Jason made a Christian out of me. He  made me a believer.

Through life, we meet many people. Very few really  impress us. Very  
few make an impact. Jason makes my skin crawl. He  raises the hair on  
the back of my neck. He makes my spine tingle. If I  never have any  
other interesting thing happen in my life, meeting  Jason and spending  
time with him would be the Omega. The Ne Plus  Ultra, the Sans Pariel.
