Summer Music Memories
I experienced some awesome concerts this summer.
I heard two of my favorite bands, Steely Dan and Chicago, play at Ravinia in August. There was a little rain for the Steely Dan concert, but the weather was beautiful and clear for Chicago, and the experience was magical and wonderful. Familiar musical favorites streamed one after another in the warm August evening air, stirring memories and emotions like a whirlpool in my soul.
I also enjoyed the Million Dollar Quartet playing an exciting medley of rock and roll hits downtown in Millennium Park. The act included Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins impersonators bringing alive the music and images of these great music legends. The crowd was large, and thoroughly enjoyed the free entertainment in the park.

I may yet enjoy another concert or two before the winter winds chase us in for the year, but even if not, I’ll cherish the memories I made this summer, listening to the music I love.
