We had a super time! The weather was AWESOME...even if we got a few sprinkles on us a couple of times! There was a TON of people, porta potties, food vendors, street entertainers, and best of all, time with the dh and ds!
Fried catfish anyone? NOT ME! EWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
Fried ravioli anyone???? NOT ME...but it sure looked GREAT!!!
OH LOOK...I was there too!!! I love this pic!!!
The Budweiser Clydesdale horses...holy cow they are HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Steve and Kev waiting for Stevie Wonder to be introduced!!!
In the next photo, do you see the girl sitting on the ground in the burgundy dress and her group? They were very RUDE and OBNOXIOUS. OH, and LOUD...They talked about everything and nothing and they did it very LOUDLY. It was so annoying adn disruptive to the people around them who were there to listen to Stevie. I finally asked them THREE times to stop being rude and loud. The burgundy girl got the hint the first time but the rest took turns being LOUD so that I had to continue to ask them to stop. People around me were so thankful and were glad I had the guts to ask them to be quiet. While they were loud Stevie was singing songs that I had never heard before. This group wanted all of his old stuff. They kept yelling "Sing Superstition". WELL...the best part was that when they left...about 30 mins later he sang a conglomeration of all his oldies but goodies! WOOHOO...the obnoxious group MISSED IT! I guess there is justice!!!
Here was Stevie...I could barely see him on the stage...thank goodness for the jumbotron!
We even had a visit from the Rev. Jesse Jackson!!! WOW!!!
And finally, a photo of the building that kept staring at me throughout the concert! I just LOVE this picture!!!
Stevie Wonder was a free concert. We hoped he would play for about 90 mins or so. He played NON STOP for 2 hours and 45 minutes!!! I think he would've stayed all night if the sun hadn't been setting!!! It was AMAZING and so worth the trip!!!
