I saw Herb Alpert perform in concert earlier this week. I wasn't sure what to expect since he's nearly 90, but I was utterly blown away. He engaged with the audience so easily that the crowd of 1,700 felt more like 17. It was crazy intimate and if Alpert has lost a step with age, I couldn't tell. His performance was top-notch. Seriously, this was one of the best live shows I've ever attended. He performed a cover of "Puttin' on the Ritz," which was cool in and of itself, but this trippy video played on the screens surrounding the stage. Naturally, I had to share.
This was my second time seeing him and both times at The Tobin. He's so charming and to have that stamina at almost 90 to play his trumpet as amazingly as he does is a testament to continue to do things so you can do things! Great show and I surely hope I can see him again.
