STEVIE WONDER!!

Hey, guess where me and my wife were last night??

Watching Stevie Wonder at the Hollywood Bowl!! Practically in the front row. The legendary Stevie Wonder! Almost three hours of one classic song after another (plus one new song currently in the works).

I've been to the Hollywood Bowl several times and this was the first time I have ever seen every single person on their feet dancing to songs like "Sir Duke" and "Superstition".

Some pictures from my "yes, I know it doesn't have a flash or a zoom lens" iPhone (some were taken off a nearby video screen):



Stevie and his family at the beginning of the show.



Stevie and his daughter Aisha. She's was the inspiration for the song "Isn't She Lovely" when she was born. Trippy experience to see him serenade his daughter, who is now an adult, with the song.



Stevie and one of his sons singing a duet. His son sounds just like him at that age. Again... trippy.



One long shot of the stage. The band consisted of Stevie (obviously), a trumpet player, a sax player, three percussionists, two keyboardists (other than Stevie), two guitars, one bassist, three backup singers, and a full orchestra.
