Josh Groban and Keith Lockhart with the Boston Pops..... These were the headliners for the concert I went to Thursday night @ Symphony Hall in Boston. Talk about being totally blown away would be an understatement....:) Playing to a sold-out crowd Chris Botti put on the show of 2008 which was taped for an upcoming PBS Special. Every time the stage door opened the audience was thrilled with the blending of Botti & his celebrity quests. Sting & Josh Groban were superb with a special surprise appearance of John Mayer. But the performance that really did it for me was when rocker Steven Tyler graced the stage with an over the top rendition of “Cryin” in full rock attire contrast to everyone's basic black.....:)

I was at the concert as well and was thought it was fantastic! Who knew Chris had such a sense of humor! It was also pretty cool to see the makings of the WGBH special in action. With the stopping to powder his nose, his telepromptergoing dark and retaking certain portions. I didn't mind hearing the Shape of My Heart duet twice in its entirety(although it took 4 tries to get it right). I thought Steven Tyler was incredible, even my 81 year old father enjoyed Cryin'! I wish I was going tonight too!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say I was at the Friday concert and it was equally as fantastic (although no Josh...boo) Although the medical emergency in the middle of John Mayer's song was unfortunate! Wonderful concert, and some amazing music.
