Carlos Santana

Although we were all worn out from waiting in line for many hours in the heat, Carlos Santana dazzled the crowd with his stamina and guitar skills! At 70 years old, Carlos still has IT. His entire band was terrific from the two male singers to the three wonderful drummers, and everyone else in between. There was fantastic music for more than 2.5 solid hours. Every person on that stage was amazing. The crowd was very hot and tired by the time the concert started but was revitalized by the music. One highlight of the evening was the use of a large screen, high up enough for people to see no matter where their seats where, even if people in front where standing or dancing. Some of the camera shots allowed us to really see the three drummers craft. Some shots were of the early years of Carlos' career. One of the support guitarists seemed to stay out of the spot light most of the night...until he sang "Roxanne". Gosh that fellow was spot on.....I still have goose bumps just thinking about it. I highly recommend going to see and hear Carlos.

Carlos Santana was very good, but we didn't realize it was a fundraiser and probably would not have attended had we known. They spent way too long on what people were donating. We were wet from the rain, and hot and wanted to hear Carlos! I was very impressed Carlos Santana donated his appearance!
