The Fred's got one of the ground breaking country rock acts on the bill with Poco. Should be a good show!

Wow! What a show The Outlaws put on last night...if you like southern rock this is one helluva show to see! Hands down the best guitar playing EVER at The Fred. Three guitar rock and roll very reminiscent of Lynyrd Skynyrd.

And Poco was great also....don't recall an opening act getting an encore call before.

If you need something to do tonight, go see this one...you won't be disappointed!

Despite the sparce crowd last night, both bands put on a memorable show. Poco was very tight and did not dissapoint. The Outlaws on the other hand put on a show of the ages. With Henry Paul on lead vocals and the thundering guitar army, this band kicked butt. In my 15 years of going to the Fred, this was by far the best guitar performance as stated by borntorun. The Outlaws played their hearts out. Give them credit for ingnoring the curfew police and playing until 11:07 pm. I will be back tonight.

I'm going to guess that I was not alone in not renewing my 4 seats after the Fred raised prices 40% since last year. It's a shame because I loved the shows there, but that large an increase in one step was just too much for someone with 2 kids in college. Seriously, what were they thinking raising their prices so much??? Glad you enjoyed the show, we may be back in a few years after tuition is no longer a concern...

Why did they raise the Amphitheater fees? Think---Tennis Center, 1.5 million that the Pros took with them!

Was probably 2/3 full. I'll say this, buy the series "lawn seats" and sit where ever you want. The show was GREAT Saturday night.

You mean they are dumb enough to sell grass seats when the others are not sold out?

30 bucks is more income than ZERO. Not that I would ever do it. Smiling

Honestly, it was a great show.
