Mark and I had such a wonderful time last night...we went to our first concert at Red Rocks and saw Chicago! First of all, the venue is absolutely magnificient! As Wikipedia describes it, "Red Rocks Amphitheatre is a rock structure in Red Rocks Park near Morrison, Colorado (west of Denver), where concerts are given in the open-air amphitheatre. There is a large tilted, disc-shaped rock behind the stage, a huge vertical rock angled outwards from stage right, several large outcrops angled outwards from stage left and a seating area for up to 9,450 people in between." It is truly a majestic place!
This was my third time seeing Chicago and Mark's first time and he is now a real fan of theirs! They are better than ever! There are four original members still with the group. Their well known songs sound fantastic in person, better than the recordings! I think it was 1970 or 1971 when I first saw them and I think it was at the Boston Gardens. I saw them again at the University of Vermont a couple years later when I was at St. Michael's College.
Check out some of the pictures and short clips on the right.
