I'm gonna try to go. He and his band always put on a great show.

I hope his percussionist Fermin is still with him.

I will be there with the minions on Saturday, however I will not be attending the concert due to lack of interest by the short ones(to CK, that means everyone). Would love to see/meet some of you. My wife is yet to meet many of you. They are headed there in the morning and I will meet up with them around 1:30 to close the park!

I plan on being there late afternoon to closing. I NEED to ride Nessie!! Do you think we can make arrangements for someone to watch the kiddies while we do so? My baby doesn't want to ride it nowadays for whatever reason.

Quite possibly. The mother-in-law will be with us and probably would sit with Amy. I know I can't keep the minions off of it!

It's looking to be about 50% chance of rain as of right now (7:30 AM). This is the SUNSHINE Band; no rain allowed!!

Hoping you guys have a great time at the concert! Looks like the rain may hold off for now. CK- I want pictures!

The rain held off until about thirty minutes into the set. Slow drizzle turned into a full shower; lots of folks left but the show went on. Amy & I had a LOT of fun. The band was AWESOME! The dancing girls were HOT! K.C. himself was a really good performer; he owned the stage & the crowd. I think I enjoyed this show even more than Styx. And that is really saying a lot. Will get pictures loaded tomorrow sometime. SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE!!!

Best joke of the night:
"I've gained about 60 pounds over the years. I'm gonna change my name to K.F.C. & the Sunshine Band."

i agree this show was better than the Styx show and I am a classic rocker more than a disco music kinda guy KC put on a great show even with his weight gain he could still move to me the rain didnt hurt the show one bit I liked that better than 90 plus humid afternoon......

Great pics, CK!

I wasn't able to make it to the park unfortunately.

How long was his set?

I think it ended around 8:45 or so; about 1.75 hours.

Yeah that sounds about right for his total set time.

Oh BTW he's always cracking jokes on stage. But that "KFC" joke you mentioned was the first I've heard of and he's been the same size the previous two times I saw him! LOL
