Earth Wind & Fire really put on a great show. It was pure nonstop entertainment from 10:25- 12:20 AM. I was utterly amazed at how people brought children under 10 yrs of age.Some people had the audacity to just get up and leave before the end of the show. It was a great show.
It was quite fun. But, where was the promised Piper champayne?
They put on a great show. We had a great time.
