By Bob Greaves
Richie Kotzen took to the stage at the Robin 2, Bilston, halfway through his UK tour.
The charismatic musician, who found early fame with Poison and Mr Big, brought his uniquely powerful blend of rock solid guitar and vocals to an appreciative crowd, in a show with a real intimate feel to it.
Richie and his band tore through a set of his solo material, as well as covers of Shapes of Things and a particularly memorable rendition of All Along the Watchtower during the encore.
Support was provided by The Ben Poole Band and The Fry Band.
Richie is touring in the UK until October 20, after which he starts a tour of mainland Europe.
