JD Tribute Concert

This concert was as good as expected, and in some ways even better!  It opened with an entirely new orchestral arrangement which is the Late Winter to Early Spring from the Season Suite. It was all instrumental and was accompanied by some new video which set the tone for the entire concert.  Most of the songs had a video of John singing, with four sung by Mack Bailey. 
The set list included some new songs not performed in prior Tribute concerts like "Druthers'" and "Feather Bed".  The final encore was Rocky Mountain High which, being n Colorado, was very well received.

After the concert we talked to Mack's wife Rachel for a while then headed out to the Meet and Greet to chat with Mack and Chris Nole.  

Mary spotted John's son, Zak, in the crowd so we chatted with him for a bit. 

All in all, a great evening!  Heading home tomorrow with a few weeks before our next trip.

This must have been a fantastic show! Nice that Zach was there.
I’ve always liked the instrumental versions of Season Suite.
