Concert Review: Heart

Caught them last night at Naperville Ribfest. I didn't get the best ribs this time -- lines were too long for multiple samples.

To answer all your questions:

Yes, Ann Wilson is still heavier than she used to be. Doesn't matter.

Yes, she can still belt it.

Yes, Nancy Wilson showed a bit of cleavage (not much compared to the mid-80s videos, though).

Yes, she still does her gyrations on stage.

No, they didn't play much of the '80s stuff. Just two songs, which they rearranged: a radically redone "These Dreams" with a great mandolin part from Nancy, and "Alone" without most of the electric parts.

They relied heavily on the '70s stuff: "Crazy on You," "Barracuda," "Mistral Wind," "Magic Man," "Bebe le Strange," etc.

Also, some good remakes: Nancy sang a Petty song I didn't recognize, and Ann did two Led Zep songs (I'm not much at Led Zep) for the encores. They finished with The Who's "Love Reign O'Er Me," which led into "Barracuda" and "Crazy on You."

Would I see them again? You bet.

Weird line of the night:

Ann: "This song is about my dog, actually."
Me: "God, please don't let it be 'All I Wanna Do Is Make Love to You.'" (It was "Dog and Butterfly," of course.)
