Wild At Heart


Had a glorious weekend despite not being able to hit all the shows I wanted to. I did spend a bit of time at Night Ranger, Foreigner and Journey who also recently played Pine Knob. I was not a fan of Ranger’s “Sister Christian” or Steve Perry (Gregg Rolie was the lead singer for my favorite Journey songs) but I enjoyed the concert and new vocalist Arnel Pineda. I was too far away to get many good shots but here are a few. I apologize for the quality now starting with Night Ranger:

I also had the pleasure of going to the Seneca Niagara Casino to see the Association and later in the week, I will be sharing photos of the band as well as sights to see for anyone thinking of traveling to the American side of the Falls this summer. I am hoping to post that Friday at the latest so check back frequently.
