Tedeschi Trucks Band Rock Syracuse Empower FCU Amphitheater |

 8/28/2025 - Syracuse, New York - In a last minute decision, I picked up a cheap ticket on Ticketmonster at the Empower Federal Credit Union Amphitheater at Lakeview in Syracuse, New York to see one of my favorite bands perform the Tedeschi Trucks Band. I headed East down NYS Thruway on this overcast August day and managed to get into the venue pretty early despite the fact the New York State Fair was also in full swing. The show was close to a sellout and my ticket was excellent seven rows back right stage. I grabbed a very good wood fired pizza from the vendor Toss & Fire Wood-Fired Pizza prior to the show start. The opening act this evening was a rock and roll band from Palestine, Texas called Whiskey Myers. They hit the stage promptly at 7:30 and played a good full set of rock. The band had three guitarists, Cody Cannon, John Jeffers and Cody Tate and sounded good and was well received by the near sellout crowd. They closed their almost hour and forty-five minute set with a jam filled version of Going Down. After the brief setup intermission Tedeschi Trucks Band hit the stage and played a good set of covers, new and old material that was surprisingly shorter than than the opening band. They opened the show with Crazy Cryin' and played new song I Got You with some tasty jams by Derek Trucks and great vocals by Susan Tedeschi. They did a nice jam on Beck's Bolero and the mandatory Derek & The Dominos cover of Keep On Growing with Trucks wailing on the slide and Tedeschi did a nice jam on Just Won't Burn They closed the some what short set with a soulful jam on the Beatle's With A Little Help From My Friends. They surprisingly did NOT come out for an encore and again their set was shorter than the opening act. It was still a good performance by the band but it definitely left the crowd feeling slighted on this night and wanting more. Slideshow | |
