The Fire Down Below


For my third and final Summer concert, I went to see another legend, Bob Seger. At 72 years old, the DETROIT MADE rocker sounded STILL THE SAME and showed the crowd his NIGHT MOVES. We arrived 30 minutes before the RAMBLIN' GAMBLIN' MAN hit the stage, and as we walked down MAINSTREET, we could hear some OLD TIME ROCK AND ROLL blaring from the nearby parking lots. I was so glad my brother asked my sisters and I. When he showed us the tickets and said YOU'LL ACCOMP'NY ME, we thought this was a great way to end the Summer.


We fought AGAINST THE WIND and entered the venue where we lined up with all the other BEAUTIFUL LOSERS getting ready to SHAKEDOWN to some HEAVY MUSIC. Seger definitely ROLL(ed) ME AWAY with his vocals and skills on guitar and piano. LOOKIN BACK, I'm glad we went to the show. I wouldn't have wanted to miss the TRAVELIN' MAN as he went through the Detroit area. LIKE A ROCK, Bob and his Silver Bullet Band played all the classics. The crowd knew WE'VE GOT TONIGHT and only the one night to enjoy this special live performance.


First Neil Diamond, then Lionel Richie, and finally Bob Seger. It was a Summer of classics, good music and legends.
