Review:
Bonnie Raitt - I actually knew a couple of the songs. She's pretty talented. Decent slide guitar player. She played the piano on a couple songs too. Definitely old school - not like some of today's stars who are famous because of their looks instead of their talent. She's not just country either - a few of her songs were deeply rooted in the blues.
JamesTaylor - It was an enjoyable show. His set had video screens in back of him showing video to go along with his songs. Most had a reminiscent feel rooted in family and history. Pretty large band - complete with horns, piano and 3 females singing harmony. His first set was with the full band, then the second set it was more just him sitting on a stool playing his acoustic. He's a really good player - has a very unique style. I spent most of the concert watching his finger placements on the frets because I'm a nerd. Haha. He's a good storyteller and would introduce songs by explaining what was going on in his life when he wrote them. Pretty cool. For 70 years old, he does a great job. Voice is still holding up.
Bonnie Raitt came back out and sang a couple songs with Taylor during the encore. That was fun.
Overall it was a good show. Relaxed. Definitely a "sit on your butt and watch" type concert. Plenty of sing-a-longs during the bigger hits. Crowd was obviously older - most of them were drinking like crazy. Probably because every night is Friday night when you're retired.
Oh, and for the Blues Brothers fans out there...
Blue Lou Marini is playing sax in Taylor's band. Dude still gets it done:
