Mabee Center Updates

Phil looks pretty good.  My daughter saw “Kansas” at a local casino about a month ago.  She texted me from the concert and said it is a “geriatric jungle” in here.  I would guess that the Gaither concert will also be a geriatric jungle.  There certainly will not be enough handicapped parking spots available. 😁

At least Phil is allowed to tour with Genesis.  Supposedly several years ago the record label kept telling Steve Perry he had to get a hip replacement because they wanted to do a tour with “Journey.”  Steve kept putting it off and instead they found a formerly homeless guy from the Philippines who sounded just like Steve Perry.  They made him the new lead singer and left Steve Perry in the dust.

TheEagleman actually saw Journey with the Fillipino lead singer a few years ago and he was great....sounded just like Steve Perry used to sound 40 years ago....he can't sing anymore from what I hear....honestly...not a Journey fan but MrsEagleman is....i went to the concert more for Heart and they were awesome!....Ann Wilson can still belt out the songs and Nancy still plays a nasty guitar......Phil Collins?....geez he looks embalmed.....but probably better than Bill Gaither....😎

I took a quick tour of the Mabee Center on Friday (10/29); here are a few pictures.

Big changes to the mezzanine. Lots of pictures/art work/video. New sky boxes on the other side of the arena; old ones completely refurbished. Heard they are sold out with a waiting list…

Will we still be able to enter through the South Lobby, or is that going to be closed for renovations?

Yes, they are doing improvements up the escalators and inside the doors of the south entrance, just like the north entrance.  Both entrances will be used.
