James Taylor Concert Review
When I got my tickets to go see James Taylor in concert I really did not know what to expect. I guess when you see a guy who has many hits from so many years ago, you kind of expect the stadium to fill up with old people. I can’t say that I myself am the youngest, but there is just something fun when the younger crowd goes crazy when people like James Taylor hit the stage. To my surprise, I walked in and it is clear that James Taylor’s music has touched the lives of younger generations. The place was crowded, but there was a wide range in age between the people there. It was great!
James Taylor has a lot of songs, which makes for a good concert but probably hard on his voice. He still pushed through with 26 songs all together. He split it up into two different sets where he had 12 songs in the first, and 14 in the second. It was a lengthy concert when you are listening to a single artist, but when each song is so good, the time flies.
One of the best parts of the night was the fact that James Taylor cracked jokes at himself throughout the concert. He referred to himself as being the opening act for the venue we were in. The funny part was that the venue he held his concert in was about a hundred years old. It lightened the mood, but when the music started you could see the crowd as passionate as ever about the words he was singing.
Overall, the concert was great! I would highly recommend it to anyone who loves some of the classics he sings.
