    $40 gets you chicken fingers and a beer in a souvenir cup

    Those at least look like some decent chicken fingers and waffle fries, as opposed to just some microwaved Tyson products, but what did you think?

    They were quite good but utensils would have helped. Al least the napkins were close.

    Seat view. Won’t see much of the graphics but stage view is good.

    Ha I kid, even with the $40 chicken fingers and beer sounds like a cool experience.

    I was in section 107 row 33. I knew it wasn’t a full view if the screen when i bought them. Still, i wish i was lower down or in an upper section because i missed a lot if the visuals.

    Sitting waiting for breakfast so let’s get caught up. The show was amazing and i may get tickets to go again in Dec or Jan when i am back. Seats will be higher or closer to the floor so i can see the entire display. I imagine that will make the experience even better.

    Overall i really likes the set list. It was in a different order than i had seen online so not sure if they changed it or if I saw a list that wasn’t in order. It flowed very well. Instrumentally they sounded tight. Joe Walsh can still rip. Vocals had a few hitches but i think that’s expected for a live show and their ages. Joe has a very unique voice that is not aging well. Deacon Frey sang quite a few songs and sounded very good. They all still sing better than me.
    The Sphere experience is pretty cool. I want to explore the whole thing. Rideshare leaving was a cluster fuck. They need to clean that up. The whole thing was worth it. The full experience was less costly than my gambling for the day.

    Breakfast at Bacon Nation since i didn’t want to walk to Circa. Passable but i prefer Siegel’s at ElCo. Half the machines are down at The D. Apparently a transformer blew. Vue Bar appears to be open so I’ll be there soon.

    So happy that Joe Walsh still has it, he’s great.

    Service was actually pretty good. Waitress was prompt and food came quick and hot.

    Vue Bar has been a little cold. The power issue means there is no loud music which is nice

    I just noticed the lack of music! No TV also means no competition for seats

    Is that a One Club Legend benefit? Pretty good for a VP low roller!
