Thank you for keeping the music rich and beautiful. Rest in Peace, Maurice White. I have been a loyal fan for years. 🎤🎶🎸🎹🎺💗

Am able to go but RIVERBEND VENUE HAS VERY FEW ADA SEATS. PEOPLE WHO WANT DESPERATELY TO SEE THE BANDS IN THIS TIME PERIOD ARE AGING AND NOBODYS CARES!! That is very sad. There are people who r younger who love these band but those of us who listened to them as young people need wheelchairing space. The 3 remaining members of EWF are 72 yrs old!!! So look at it from my point of view. The fans of the 1970's are not young anymore. PLEASE AMERICA DONT KEEP LIMITING US FROM GOING OUT and having a good time even in a chair. When venues book these 70's bands PLEASE arrange seating with room for those of us in chairs❤❤❤❤

I had the gift of seeing them and The Isley Brothers in Indianapolis when I was 23. What a show! Everyone was having a great time dancing singing having so much fun. I couldnt count all the instruments actually being played. Unlike today with all on one instrument. Best music ever!

When it comes to making you feel really cool, when you're high just on being alive and watching or just listening to these guys; when it comes to their superb musicianship out of this world no one comes close to EWF. I'm a grizzly bear when it comes to dancing, but EWF's magic just won't let me stand still😂. First saw them in 1975 and that first fascination never let me. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
