Low rain Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 What a GREAT concert! They did the most amazing goosebumps on your skin cover of Neil Young- Down by the River with 3 guitar solos (3 guitarists) and a mini drum solo. Wow! They were so eclectic with blues, rock, salsa, cumbia..... They ended with a salsa song and the 1 singer invited a guy to play a percussion instrument on stage with them. Then... the singer kept literally pulling people up onto the stage where they all spread out dancing around. Picture perfect! There were at least 15 people dancing on the stage with the band. After they stayed and signed autographs too! I bought an awesome CD (not in stores) with acostic live mostly spanish Los Lobos! Wow! What a perfect night!

Low rain Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 Oh ya, and on the drive home we got stuck on Bay St with the New kids on the Block traffic jam as the concert was letting out. That was an interesting sight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
