Saw the 4pm show - Danny Seraphine, one of the 2 founders of Chicago in the late 60s. He is the drummer and head of the band. 8 players on stage. 3 horns, keyboard, 3 guitars/ singers, and Danny at drums. Nothing short of wonderful. Played every hit beautifully. Danny is 73 now and looks great. He just returned after Covid hit. Still not 100% he says and a bit out of breath but yikes so great. They played for over an hour and a half, then autographs etc in the lobby, then back at 7 for their second show .
Could not be more pleased, one of the best we've seen there. The sound system is much improved too. Btw he asked for a show of hands for how many in the audience , almost full, had Covid. Quick look around, my guess 15-20%. Us- Not.
Thanks so much for booking them, would def go back again next time.

We were at the 4pm show
WOW...and I mean WOW!!!!!!!!!!
They had it rocking...my wife has always loved that big brass band sound that Chicago had....AND, they played all the great Chicago songs in a non stop performance
They truly 'emptied the tank' for us....so much energy....I felt like I was seeing Chicago!
Music is great for people with Alzheimer's...and my wife was singing right along with them and enjoying EVERY SINGLE song....just like she did in days gone bye
What a ride down memory lane...and what a great chance "to see" the gal that I love, even if it was for just a few moments during the concert
ya can't put a price on that

Recall seeing them live at The Fillmore East in NYC - many years ago. Those were the days

wife and I were at 7pm show... great show ..Danny had to stop and catch his breath many times between songs which is understandable recovering from covid .. also there was much banter with the audience and he does tend to talk like a drunken sailor...lol at 1 point when he was going on about his past he actually had the whole audience yelling out 2 times .. hey Danny shut the f..k up and play

Agree with all of the other comments. Got to give him credit, 73 year old drummer played 2 105 minute shows. He did talk more than most but was breathless. He needed another 30 minutes to play all of the Chicago hits. Did not play Dialogue or Question 67/68
Horns were fabulous.
