The
commute from Maine was so worth it! I knew I couldn't miss Dan this
time around and am so glad I didn't. This truly was the best I've
ever seen him (even though I've loved each concert before this). The
band couldn't have been better. What a combo of talent up on that
stage! The compilation of styles and songs were superb. I only have
one request . . . Dan, when are you coming back to Maine?? It's been
way too long! The Reach is calling . . . ~ Cindy

Seeing Dan Fogelberg
in concert was a very special treat for me and my wife. We travelled
over from Leeds in Yorkshire, England specially for the show. As a
fan since 1972, this was a life's ambition fulfilled! I had never
seen him live in concert before and never thought that I would. I'm
amazed that there are fans who have seen him live 20 times. It goes
without saying, we were not disappointed! A superb concert, I only
wish I could have bottled the whole evening so that I could open it
up to enjoy every week. I thought the balance between the various
musical styles was spot on. Songs I particularly enjoyed were "Magic
Every Moment", "Changing Horses" (with its long intro),
"To the Morning" and "The Reach", one of my all-time
favourites. Of course, I loved all the other songs as well. For me,
Dan is the most talented singer songwriter anywhere and his music
has been an important part of my life. I am so glad to have finally
seen him, but I have a funny feeling it won't be the last time. ~

The road trip to Oakdale theatre in Wallingford was well worth it.The
venue was real nice and of course DF and the band were the greatest.This
was the 16th time I've seen Dan and it was a great perfomance by Dan
and the band.Dan played the classics and I really enjoyed the cover
songs specially Joe Walsh's "Rocky Mountain Way" some really
good guitar playing by Dan. It was a really good crowd and very respectful
with no rude hecklers.My favorite song of the show was "To the
Morning" I thought the band did a great job. Dan came on for
2 encores, his wife joined Dan on stage for the last song of the evening,"If
I Needed someone" by George Harrison.All in all it was fun and
I enjoyed every minute of the performance.Thanks DF and the Band.

I
just saw Dan on Sunday night at the Oakdale in Wallingford. This was
the 4th time I've seen him and he was fantastic! I never tire of his
talent, music, voice, and the way he is so personable with his fans.
He just seems like a great guy to hang out with for an evening of
drinks and laughs! His band was wonderful as well...great musicianship
and harmonies. What was so great about this tour is that he did the
good old favorites, went back to some of his greats (which are some
of my favorites!) from his early days, and did some serious jammin'
with the band on some rock and blues tunes. It was awesome! Dan is
one of the most talented writers, singers, and performers out there.
I truly enjoyed the show. I've been listening to my Dan CD's ever
since the show. ~ Diane

What an
incredibly great show! What huge talent on the stage! The band
was fantastic and Dan not only was excellent as usual, but I love
the songs they picked for this tour. The acoustic, the band, the blues,
the tribute to George Harrison at the end was awesome. I just wish
the audience wasn't so laid back. I mean, what, were they 30/40-something
or post mortem? Especially when they played Rocky Mountain Way which
Joe Vitale co-wrote with Joe Walsh, I was amazed that everyone was
not on their feet. Have they forgotten how to rock the way we did
in the 70's?! This is the 30th anniversary tour, people, and
the band was rocking up there on the stage! There were some truly
awesome fans in the theater that rocked along, but for the most part
the audience was not even moving in their seats. I'm wondering if
the fans in Colorado or Illinois will be more alive. Guess we'll have
to check that one out! Come on Oakdale people, get off your butts
and rock on! . . . you are getting a bad rep! ~ Donna
Saw Dan in Wallingford
Ct with my husband. Both of us have been Dan Fans for many years.
I am a transplanted Illinois native; having lived in California and
Connecticut since I left Illinois in 1982. Loved Dan's acoustic concerts
but have been looking forward to seeing him with a band once again
-- hoping to hear some songs he hasn't really done acoustically. Was
not disappointed! He opened with the one song I had been wishing to
hear, "Magic Every Moment" and it was a snowball from there
on. What a musician, what an artist! 30 years worth of memories and
feelings brought alive again by the musicians on stage. THANK YOU,
Dan, and for those of you who have never seen him live, please make
the effort! As always, "Gambler" for the first encore had
everyone singing along and swaying to the music. It was the kind of
evening I had hoped for and more! ~ Michele

My friend &
I saw Dan for about the 20th time at Wallingford, CT's Oakdale Theater.
He was phenominal. Best I've ever seen. 30 years and still going strong.
Thank you Dan for all of your wonderful songs. WE LOVE YOU DAN!!!!

How great to
see my musical friend of 23 years again with a happy heart. What a
treat to see such joyful soul put into his music. This was the first
Dan concert in a long time that he seemed to really be enjoying himself.
The band was amazing....though the chemistry was slow to start, it
evolved as the evening progressed. He opened with Magic Every Moment.....and
that defined the evening.... .....at least for me. "There's a
miracle each day......." Twenty three years and many a concert
later.....the magic lives!! Thanks Dan and may you and you new wife
live happily ever after! Hope you enjoyed the Berkshires. Peace ~
