YES! I can write I was there, and this article describes John Fogerty's wonderful set perfectly, though I feel I heard two hours (not 1 1/2 hours) of terrific Creedence Clearwater Revival and Fogerty solo tunes.
I was blown away, as was my wife and probably everyone else lucky enough to be there.
I was mostly in my late teens when Fogerty & Co. released their biggest hits and excellent albums -- and this concert took me back there. I was on my feet the entire show, moving with my old dance steps as I sang quietly along, recalling nearly all the words.
If you liked CCR way back when and even Fogerty's later work, I encourage you to see and hear him when he comes to town. Or if you're new to his style of alt-country-rock music, check him out! He's *only* 67 (as I write this), and his roots music is true Americana.
