The music was awesome, the venue sucked!! I would have preferred to enjoy the music via CD in the comfort of my home to the hot, uncomfortable chair that I sat in for FOUR HOURS for an hour and a half concert. The show was advertised as starting at 7:30- it didn't start until 8:30. On one of the hotest days of the year, the air conditioning at The Canyon wasn't working so we walked into a sweltering, dungeon!! The management was not even concerned enough about the patrons that chose to stick it out in the sweatbox to offer us a free drink-- or anything!!! If we had at least been offered a complimentary drink for all the sweating we did while we waited for the 7:30 show to start at 8:30, I would be a little more forgiving- but come on!! NOTHING??? The air conditioner was eventually fixed and it cooled down some, but was never really comfortable. Again, the music was awesome! I have listened to these guys for years and they certainly didn't disappoint.
The music was very good.
These two are phenomenal guitarists. To watch their fingers fly so effortlessly, precisely and beautifully over the strings is positively jaw-dropping. The resulting sounds can lift anyone's mood into pure joy. Additionally, they had a stand-up bass player, a drummer and a clarinet player who each, in their own right, brought something to the show to continue to awe the audience. All of the solos were evidence that any of the musicians could have held the stage by himself. Having the entire team on the stage was was absolute reverie. I recommend Strunz and Farah to any and all music lovers and especially those who appreciate truly, talented musicians.
Come down on Thursday nights and enjoy some of the best 80s dance music and fun with the Spazmatics. DJ & Dancing every Fri & Sat after the concert.
