"We did the Troubadour the other week. That was quite an experience, because I'd never played there, which was unbelievable. When I was with the Jeff Beck Group, we went straight to the Anaheim Convention Center... and when we came with the Faces, we went straight to the Forum and the Swing Auditorium up in San Bernardino. So we never played any of the small places here. I saw my daughter play the Troubadour about a year ago, and it was the first time I'd ever gone in there." Rod Stewart on playing Los Angeles' fabled Troubadour for the first time last month (Apr13).
