Disappointed
This week we had tickets to Chicago and Earth, Wind and Fire. We were really looking forward to seeing and hearing the show.
But unfortunately, it was beyond a disappointment!
We have no idea if either band was still as good as we remembered because we had the worst sound engineer ever!
A whole lot of people in our area kept asking, "Is it just me or are you having issues hearing the music and understanding the words?"
We were all sending the Footprint Arena notifications about this problem. So far, I haven't heard anything from them.
Then we got hosed, royally, at the food court! We knew it would be a forced expense but really?!?! $60!! We split a $9 soda. My chicken sandwich was quite short of the promised protein, we split a fry and Steve had chicken fingers.
We left early. That's when date night went really bad.
Our parking lot was a good half mile away but Steve said he found a better way of getting there.
First he said we had to take one flight of stairs. HA! It was 3! I had already done my max stair allotment getting to our seats.
Tears of pain had hit by the time we got out of the arena.
It was 109 degrees! Then Steve's easier way had us walking in endless circles for an hour. By then we were both drenched in sweat, spasming in many parts of our bodies and a bit scared! This is downtown Phoenix!
Finally found the car! Decided on our 40 minute trip home that this was our final concert.
Date night was way too adventurous and expensive for us.
