'2 Incredible Bands Performing Together'

Earth Wind and Fire are fantastic performers! Am not that big of a Chicago fan however. I have walked out on only two concerts in my life: Chicago, and Hall & Oates. I went to my first (and only) Chicago concert way back in 1971, at the Indianapolis Coliseum. Left the concert before it was half over. Years later, I did the same thing when attending a Hall & Oates concert at the Indianapolis Convention Center. In both cases, the bands just stunk. In my opinion, some performers should just stick to the recording booths! Chicago Transit Authority's first LP was outstanding. And Hall & Oates "Abandoned Luncheonette" LP is still one of my favorites.

However, Earth Wind and Fire is another matter altogether! I have never had the privilege of seeing them perform live. I have two of their concert dvds. I swear it is impossible to sit still while watching them!

Earth Wind and Fire is goooood. :applause:

Chicago lost it when Peter Citera left and will never be the same. Same as Journey losing it when Steve Perry left. But, poo happens and things must change.
 
I put on my Earth, Wind & Fire - Live At Montreux dvd. They are SO talented, and their choreography is amazing.........
