What a thrill to see Dan at Red Rocks. I am originally from the Chicago area, and have seen him play most every venue from Chicago to Peoria, but moved to Colorado a year ago. My dream had always been to see him play at Red Rocks and for him to be the first act that I saw at Red Rocks. He and Red Rocks lived up to all my expectations. I took my children who are 13 and 9 and they had a great time-they have grown up on his music. The night was a complete success and I thank Dan for all the years of pure enjoyment listening to his music. ~ Nancy (Broomfield, CO)

Great show, as much as I always enjoy the Solo shows,it was great to see Dan with "The Band" . You could tell he enjoyed being part of the band. Again, I was reminded of not only what an amazing voice he has but also what talented musician Dan is. I been to several of his concerts and I do believe this was the best. Red Rocks was great as usual, but it is a hike after 30 years. ~ Don (Casper, Wyoming)

Awesome! When Dan Fogelberg wrapped up the last song of the night, all i heard around me was the word "awesome".... from kids that were 6 to kids that were 60. It was an incredible evening. For those of us used to Dan touring alone (and enjoying it very much!) he and the band had a profusely humble way of entering the stage, and yet didn't disappoint us for a moment with the opener of "Magic Every Moment".

The group thoroughly loved being together and it showed. The audience entered in that fun. They made us feel like we were all up there singing, dancing, and having a great time. And the intimacy that us diehard "Dan, the Git, and the Grande" love was still there. He talked to us like we were friends who showed up for the party. Whether the band was onstage or out seeing if the Red Rocks set was "cardboard" (!!!) he kept that interaction going with the audience throughout the night. We loved rocking with them all, (hello FireFall!!!) and we loved listening to the quiet majesty of "To the Morning"...

And those intimate moments with just himself, the instrument, and the
audience were as captivating as ever. From watching the incredible fingers
rule the guitar, to enjoying the humor this man exudes was simply joy for the
soul.
I especially loved the little dance with the baby powder in one hand and the
glass in the other! The man was having a good time, the band was having a
blast, and the crowd felt like they were part of something extra special.

The humble bows at the end of every song indicated very clearly that this was
far more than a man seeking adulation. This is a man with a gift who is
simply giving it to us. Congrats on 30 years Dan. Your music has touched my life and inspired me in so many ways, as I know it has done for countless others. ~ Stacey Magnuson (Colorado Springs

This was the best show I've ever seen in over 20 of them. Cindy Bullens opened up the show. Then came Dan who was so ON that night. Each song with all of the other musicians on stage just seemed to get them all more electrified. When Dan is on, the shows are incredible and he was. And the other musicians - Robert McEntee - your blues and your guitar work - so good; Mark Andes - your interactions with the audience make us feel so appreciated; Mike Hanna - Realizing all you add to Dan's songs in arrangements, I'm really going to go back and listen for them in detail; and Joe Vitale - from Cleveland! - you rock on those drums - what a treat. Best of all, the musicians seemed to energize Dan in a way I haven't seen for a long time. There were more smiles, laughter and true enjoyment of performing or at least playing together. The night itself was perfect - stars and cool temps. Every song came to life. But when Firefall - from Colorado - reunited on stage, well you just had to be there... they all looked happy, excited, and nostalgic. Best of all Dan looked to be enjoying himself sincerely. And that makes it all...When the show was over, I could only stand there and just say Wow - Wow - so glad I was here to see this. ~ Cindy

It's the day after the Red Rocks concert and I wish (as usual) that the concert was still underway. As usual, Dan was wonderful and we had the added thrill of seeing most of Firefall play together for a couple of songs. The only request to Dan is while Red Rocks is beautiful- most of us fans are old fogies and maybe you need to start having concerts at flatter venues! Just kidding- I will continue to see you wherever you choose to play. ~ g
