I know some of you might be saying Foreigner? Aren’t they so 80’s??? Well – they are way more then just a band from the 80’s. They have truly stood the text of time! They put on one of the best shows. I will never miss them – they will actually be with Kid Rock here in Phoenix on August 26th at Ak-Chin Pavilion. I can’t wait!!! It was such a great night – and happened to be Kelly Hansen’s Birthday so that was a blast to sing Happy Birthday to him. Have they had a few lead singers – well of course the answer is yes and I have been around for ‘all of them’… but I really do love Kelly Hansen. Check out their website – they are not going away any time soon and I can guarantee you no one left unhappy!! You can definitely tell they truly appreciate each and every fan and are so personable through the entire performance and holy cow what awesome songs. I just love going to a concert where I know the words to every sing song. If you’re a rocker in any way, shape or form, you will be glad you came – so check out their schedule and don’t miss them!
Wow – is all I can say… It was so much fun – we were on our feet dancing for the entire show. Pitbull was a ton of fun – to be honest better then I thought he’d be as I really wasn’t that familiar with his music. BUT Enrique was exactly what I thought he would be and more… A picture tells a thousand words – check out the photos and you will see why we had such an awesome time. Some songs I couldn’t understand any of the words (language) but it didn’t matter. He is one of the most energized performers I’ve ever had the pleasure of seeing. I would highly recommend seeing him if you want to dance and have the time of your life!!!
As usual – Rick was incredible!!! He never disappoints and to top it off I had the opportunity to take my 17 year old granddaughter – we had a blast!!!
Rather then rattle on about the show – I thought it would be more fun to just post a few videos of the concert. Seeing him a few times now – it’s hard to keep repeating the same thing and not be too redundant… So, enjoy the videos and slideshow of photos.
Well the year is off to a great start with getting 4th row seats for Styx… yes, you can say I’m a bit obsessed with them! But it was one of the best concerts – here’s why – I had the absolute pleasure of taking my daughter and son-in-law, as well as some great friends. They were as great as ever. Every time I see them, they seem even more grateful that fans still come to see them… To top the awesome night off I was able to jump to the front of the stage at the end of the concert and Tommy Shaw signed 2 of my albums. Like I always say “you never know”. Bring albums…. they truly do love their fans (most bands anyway) and if you’re equipped with a “sharpie” they will sign… He was so nice about it and needless to say I saw a bit ‘nervous’ but he was so kind and well – it made my experience that much more incredible. What a class act!!!
I think we have actually achieved the ultimate… To win a Meet & Greet with KISS was one of the coolest things to happen to us!!! Join a fan club, enter a drawing – you never know! This was truly a memory Debbie and I will never forget. Continue reading KISS – Las Vegas 11-22-14→
I really am not sure where to start on this one! It was the chance of a lifetime to see the one and only Billy Joel in his backyard… aka the 9th show this year at MSG. He said it best when he was performing – one of the best shows I’ve ever seen by the way… He sang “The Entertainer” where he talks about this specific section of the song: Exact lyrics: But if I go cold I won’t get sold – I’ll get put in the back in the discount rack – Like another can of beans….
I have to start by saying it was great to see a concert in an outdoor venue where I didn’t almost collapse from heat stroke. Phoenix is a great town to live in, but Chicago surely showed a cooler side of life… Continue reading KISS – Def Leppard in Chicago→
Talk about going back into yesteryear! It was quite the show… Never seeing them in concert before – it was another of those, “what are we getting into?” Continue reading .38 Special→
Simply put – if you have never seen either band live – you simply have to!
It was probably one of the best concerts we have been to. We usually say that for each concert, but in this case – we truly had the time of our life!
All I can say about the KISS / Def Leppard concert is AWESOME!!!! Both bands put on such an amazing show. For Def Leppard I was singing all the songs right along with them. KISS I was so in “awe” of the pyrotechnics that I would forget to sing because my jaw was on the ground in amazement and we were so close you coudl feel the ‘heart’ by the pyro show. Both bands never cease to amaze me on how they never “age” and take me right back to the 80’s like it was yesterday…
OMG – I had no clue Steve Miller was that awesome ‘still’… We will definitely catch them next time through town. If we are lucky enough if Steve Mille decides to continue to tour – do not miss it… Closed our eyes and we were back in the past as if we were 18 again. Jet Airliner! Priceless…
Journey was awesome! Even w/o Steve Perry – yes I said it! People you gotta get over Steve… I’m still working on it, but 2nd time seeing them with Arnel and I’m getting to the point of “Steve who?” This topic alone should generate some comments and I’m hoping it does… bring them on!
Neal Schon is one of the best guitarist we have ever had the pleasure to hear play live.
