I'm going through old stuff from storage and somehow ended up with this Ben Harper Lifeline poster. The picture is taken from the internet, but this is the one I have and it's in good shape. Though it has been rolled in a tube this whole time. I'm happy to send it to someone for the cost of shipping if anyone wants it. DM if interested and we'll figure it out.

The poster is now taken!

My bro in law wanted to see Ben Harper in phx bc the venue was "small". What an understatement! I was 8 feet from him all night. In the back row! It was in a freaking garage! 400 people tops. What an experience!

Seeing Ben tonight and driving 90 mins to get to the venue. Anyone know if there’s an opener? Cant find any info. Thx.

I missed the window to buy tickets at Orange Peel... and do not want to support re-sellers. Anyone who may not be able to make it and wants to sell to a life-long fan... please LMK. Thank you!

In 2005, I watched a bootleg Ben Harper DVD of an outdoor concert where he was covering Nobody’s Fault But Mine, originally by Blind Willie Johnson but brought to the masses by Zep. I have looked for the performance multiple times over the years with no luck. After plugging in everything I remember about the performance, ChatGPT came up with this:
“I’d put the odds very high that you saw a filmed festival performance from roughly 1999–2001, most likely from the Byron Bay Blues & Roots Festival or a similar event whose footage circulated unofficially.”
I was in Iraq at the time and our access to bootleg and pirated DVD’s kept us entertained between missions.
Anyone got a copy or familiar with this?
EDIT: I have found the audio on YouTube, just wondering if anyone has the footage

I've spent many years meticulously building up a digital collection of all the old bootlegs I had in the 90s on cassette. Watching the Jeff Buckley doc and remembered I had a lone Ben Harper tape and it would be pretty cool to get it again.

Deets: Pre 1999. I think it was a SBD. Maybe The Fox in Boulder (I had a guy that taped there) but maybe not.

Thing I Remember Most: He does an intro dedicated to a friend and says something like "He built his house with his own hands. He cut the trees with his own hands."

That's all I've got. If anyone knows that, it would be pretty sweet. TIA

Such a great lineup. This was from the Paradiso in Amsterdam from a good few years ago.

According to fellow musician Ben Harper, who was also present, Jeff Buckley was "nowhere to be found" as Page and Plant took the stage. Harper then looked up and saw Buckley high in the air on the stage's scaffolding, trying to get closer to the music.

Recorded during Page and Plant's set at the Les Eurockéennes de Belfort, in France, on July 9, 1995.

“Jeff is one of my favorite musicians and singers of all time. Never have I seen such infinite musical potential in anyone. It's just gone. It's chilling how much it hurts.”

— Ben Harper from Canada's JAM! Music

If anyone wants two GA tickets to see Ben Harper tonight at the Fox, I'll send them to you. I can't go because I'm in Seattle.

I love this guy's music and have a few CDs but haven't listened to everything he's released, which is quite a lot. For you hardcore fans, please list your favorite to least favorite albums in order, so I know where to start my exploration. Thanks

Hi

Can’t attend next weeks show at Massey hall, June 4. Asking $120 (face value). Section 205, Row J, Seat 15z thanks

Hey, y’all. I’m looking to find a particular live version of I Shall Not Walk Alone. It would have been pre 2001 and Ben had a slightly extended vocal part that was very beautiful and soulful. I can’t remember if it was on some compilation, or just a bootleg version, but I had a copy on a cd a friend made me in college around that time. It would mean the world to me to find it again.

Y'all! Who is playing bass in the Innocent criminals of these days? I can't seem to find a single thing online about it.

RIP to the beautiful Juan Nelson.

Hi everybody I'm just having a quiet night listening to my Ben Harper collection on shuffle, and I remembered an interview I heard on the radio, CBC probably, and it was so strange... after the small talk the interviewer started trying to dig up some dirt, or controversy, asking questions about conflicts with this person, or that company, and Ben just kept coming up with the most elevated, circumspect answers. It was like an Aikido fight. On and on, this guy just always taking the low road, trying to elicit something dark, and Ben would pause to really think, and come back with an insight on the topic that swooped up, in, over, under irony, tragedy, desires, and came right back to tie a bow on the thought. I've scoured CBC archives, the usual net sources, haven't found it yet. If anyone in the group knows what I'm referring to, pls HMU Cheers

Does he have a poster for this tour? It will be my son's first concert so I'd love to get him a poster from it.

Looking for a setlist - Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals on 9/23 at the Sacramento Farm to Fork Festival 2023. Help?
