OSAA Wrestling State Championship Portland Sport reviews
ZZ still rocks, Aerosmith rocks the house!
1. ZZ could still belt the tunes with only a few flaws (They aren't young anymore) and did a full hour, even though the event was packed.
2. OSAA Wrestling State Championship was an hour later (should have been less), but put on a remarkable show for being outdoors with their stage setup.
3. They could have stayed a little longer and played a few more songs.
4. I was not that impressed with Perry's two-three songs; I think he needs to stay on the guitar and less vocal.
5. The volume could have been turned up a bit; sitting in the lawn area did not sound loud enough from my point.
6. This gave Steve a break from singing, but I would have rather heard him sing more.
7. The only downfall was that I had bought my tickets ahead of time; wish I had waited for the special from Live Nation/Ticket Master special for $10 seats on the lawn.
8. Overall, I had a great time. Worth seeing if you have never seen them play live before.
