    Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
    Nothin', don't mean nothin' hon' if it ain't free, no no
    And, feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues
    You know, feelin' good was good enough for me
    Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee

    This is the most talent ever amassed on the same stage. Could you imagine the price of concert tickets for this concert if it were today? These guys are just. naturally laid back doing what they were meant to do entertain. They are all in tune no fancy jewelry or clothes just a normal people.

    Wow this rendition of Kris’s song is just the best. I’ve rewound it five times on this go-round as it’s so great. I visit this concert often as these guys are so my favorite band. They all have respect for each other and it shows, how many times do you see this in a group that’s been around for years. Lovely to watch. Makes my heart soar listening to them. Ahhhh.

      john smith It’s about playing in a live setting. Typically the band is behind the speakers, the PA is facing the crowd but in front of the stage. Yeah, they could hear it, but it would be echoing back and not sound right. So when you see those wedges on the front of a stage facing back towards a band, those are speakers so the band can hear themselves clearly. A lot of modern acts use in ear monitors so they can move around more.
