Pure Prairie League was disappointing. Music was Distorted and vocals were mediocre. Richie Furay, and ARS were good. Firefall was GREAT!
Could have been better, sound was off for all of the bands. Pure Prairie League did not play very long it seemed compared to the others. Vocals hard to hear for Atlanta Rhythm section.
Richie Furay has not lost one ounce of what makes him great and it was a treat to have Jessie, his daughter, sing with him. His choice of songs was fantastic. Firefall sounded terrific and were still able to hit the high notes. They played almost everything and ended with Mexico. Bravo! Atlanta Rhythm Section was way too loud, thus, they sounded distorted and sloppy. At times you could barely hear the lead singer. The songs they chose to sing were great but they were squandered due to the aforementioned reasons. Pure Prairie League sounded very good. They sounded tight and appeared to enjoy playing together. Richie Furay, Firefall and Pure Prairie League made it an excellent show and if ARS could have gotten their sound right the show could have been superb.
4 bands: Atlanta Rhythm Section and Pure Prairie League were way too loud. They must think all their fans need hearing aids. The other 2 bands were great, absolutely LOVED Firefall. We retreated to the hallway for ARS, hoping that PPL would be better. We wound up leaving the show entirely during the 3rd PPL song. Waste of money. Never again.
Saw them at the Legends show on St Charles last Saturday night. We stayed for 2 seasons Mgr’s from Pure Prairie League and left after that. We could not find understand a word being sang due to bad acoustics and singing that sounded like growling. When we left, at least 1/2 of the audience had already left.
I thought the band was not Pure Prairie League. They didn’t sound like them at all and didn’t play popular songs. I have seen them several times and they were wonderful. Playing PPL songs that everyone knows. I will never go again.
Show was too long overall. This was in spite of the timely change overs between artists. We were too tired to hang for the entire last set for Pure Prairie League unfortunately. I would recommend starting the show at 6pm with 4 bands.
We had a great time. All the bands were awesome. It was great to be able to meet the members of all the bands and hear the songs we grew up listening to. I appreciate all the workers making it a great experience.
PPL was fantastic! Loved the songs! Had an awesome night reminiscing!!!
Seen PPL many years ago. Have a lot of their albums. It was exciting to see and hear them again. Great hearing new and old songs. I hope to see them again.
