Earth, Wind & Fire

For Will's graduation present, I bought us tickets to see a Earth, Wind & Fire concert in Indio! I have been keeping it a secret from Will for the past month, and he was very excited when he discovered that he would be seeing one of his favorite bands in concert. Needless to say, it was a lot of fun! This was only the second concert I have ever been to, and it was nice that I knew most of the songs. Will is the one who got me interested in Earth, Wind & Fire!

Before the concert, we had dinner at a nice restaurant located in the Fantasy Springs Casino. 

This is where the concert was!

The tickets :)

Waiting for the doors to open...



It was difficult getting good pictures. These ones turned out the best.



What is he doing here?

Right after the concert ended. We were two happy campers!

We probably should have had someone take a picture for us.

Ah, it was a very good night. It was interesting being some of the youngest people there. When the announcer came on stage, he asked "Who here remembers buying the records of Earth, Wind & Fire back in high school or college?" Hahaha...oh man. Records. The band has been around for 40 years, and the man sitting in front of us turned around and said, "40 years! That's a long time!" And yet, I've only been alive for half that time...

Here is a little clip of the show. I took this from my camera, so the quality isn't the best, but you can hear the song. Enjoy!
