On the night before my parents and Aunt Barb had to leave, we decided to have an adults night out. The younger three stayed home and us adults and Gabriel went out for a nice dinner and to a show. The Frankie Vallie concert, actually.
We had gone last year and liked it so much, my parents got tickets again. This time, we were in row 5 so we got to see everything up close.
Into his 80's now, Frankie is an amazing performer, he sang for almost 2 hours straight, never sat down or took a drink of water. I was tired for him. Being up close we could see this time more how hard he had to work to catch his breath between songs and just how hard it is to hit those really high notes.
There was some discussion that this was his final farewell tour and while we wish him well, I can't blame him if he decides he's like to take his nights off. Here are a few of the photos from the fun night and the amazing performer who wrote so many great songs, songs we still love and sing along to today.
Oh what a night it was!
Oh yes indeed, oh what a night it was!
Until next time,
Angie
