We enjoyed it immensely. I was disappointed they weren't touring with an orchestra, but the songs still sounded great. Justin Hayward provided the sole electric guitar lead and did it with skill and ease. I was amazed. I expected each of them to have a backup player. John Lodge as well did a great job with no backup support. Graeme Edge did have backup and appeared to be having difficulty with the faster drum beats. All in all, a great performance. We're running out of years to see these guys -- don't waste time!Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03119827816698009731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1879473706233234375.post-42974184365391726852009-09-03T16:17:24.044-04:002009-09-03T16:17:24.044-04:00I got to see them on Sunday, Aug. 30th in Indianap...I got to see them on Sunday, Aug. 30th in Indianapolis. As always, they were awesome although Justin's voice was a bit strained early on. It got better as he warmed up and it was a bit chilly at White River State Park venue, which is an outdoor venue. I recall seeing them there back in 1984. This was my 1oth time seeing them and my 150th concert overall. Check out my review as well at: magicianofoz.blogspot.comJames C.

A tremendous show, to say the least, probably as perfect as a live performance can be. Justin's voice in top form, and simply 2 hours of beautiful music. This one was over much too quickly, we could have sat and listened for hours. Nights in White Satin received a 10 minute standing ovation. I think the Moodies were touched by that. Just a wonderful concert. Can't wait for their return in the not too distant (I hope) future. The Dallas Symphony Orchrasta helped put this show on my top 3 concerts ever list.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14969116744927423250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1879473706233234375.post-69009212674353629012009-08-31T08:22:45.493-04:002009-08-31T08:22:45.493-04:00I have waited years for the opportunity to see the...I have waited years for the opportunity to see the Moody Blues and finally went to the concert in Louisville on August 28. It was sold out. It was like being back in the 60's and 70's. Great music and a great performance.

Being a native New Yorker I know how fantastic a venue this is. I can't wait to see them again. I'm a long term fan (36 years now) and they only get better.<br /><br />BTW, Julie Ragans has been replaced this tour by Bernie Barlow, a wonderful performer in her own right! We are so happy to have Bernie back!!<br /><br />Arline in FloridaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
