Heart: Alive in Seattle

I just watched this the other night (with DTS audio) and all I can say is WOW. This is the best concert I have seen by them (I'm bummed I missed this tour). It really rocked.
Ann Wilson still has the most amazing voice. I find it amazing she is only 2 years younger than Stevie Nicks. Very high energy between her and Nancy, as well as a great setlist. The Paramount Theater in Seattle is gorgeous. Their set design was also cool and warm...with candles and lamps.

Check it out if you haven't seen it yet.

Good luck!

I bet you'll get it...straight on for you.

I still can't get over how much they ROCKED it. That song Heaven, with Nancy playing her guitar with a cello stick was too cool. I got goose bumps. I must buy this DVD. I rented and watched it 3x before returning.

Yes you did.

I saw Heart once -- it was at one of those theaters in downtown Santa Barbara, back around 1981 or 1982. David Lindley & El-Rayo X opened. They were more fun than the headliner. I liked that song HOW CAN I REFUSE? back then, & I think Heart opened with that.

I thought the words "Should I drop my guard?" were actually "Should I drive my car?"

Back in the day when I first saw Heart- Their opener was John "Cougar"
The only tune that any one knew was Jack and Diane, but he was amazing as well as his band.
I remember the night and his voice and it still gives me chills.
He finished his set and all he did throughout the hour was vocals and dancing at the mic stand, it was fun and enjoyable and he was great.
For an encore he comes back on stage alone with a black accoustic guitar, and a blue /white light shining down on him and does a
solo cover of
The Stones- "You can't alway's get what you want"!!!
I mean it was sacreligious -No one would cover The Stones!!!!!

He was excellent both on guitar and vocals, you could have heard a pin drop-
I'll never forget it.

Then Heart came out and rocked away the rest of the night
What a great memory -
And how lucky I am to have grown up while this stuff was actually happening.
That was a geat time in music. I mean Barracuda was a new song!
And then they did (which is now signature, but at the time -sacreligious-
"Battle of Evermore" (I think it was..) anyway a Led Zep cover!!!!

Amazing time to be attending concerts, plus tickets were like $20.00 haha
I am feeling old
