A lot of lucky fans in the Philadelphia area. Hopefully they will add some shows and come north a bit.

I hope they come south.  I got Annie's last album, "Woman Transcending," and she can still sing.  I don't know about 5 octave range any more at age 62 but it would be nice to hear her live -- I was too young during their heyday in mid 70's.

There was a lot of talk that they would extend the tour from last year into some additional shows this year. and then there was talk in addition t that that some more of the original members might be joining for that second piece, since the first part was so successful.

I had a chance to see them in San Diego (76 I think) and it was great. Opened for Al DiMeola - strange combination but I have eclectic tastes.  8)

I've seen Renaissance quite times in their prime.

Opening for Ponty at the Greek Theater in LA. Headlining a couple of times at the Country Club in the Valley.

But the best was opening for Gentle Giant at The Shrine Auditorium! Unbelievable show.

Not really strange. Those were the days when all the various genres of progressive music were appreciated by many listeners.

That's because the link was posted in August, and the site has moved on to current shows.

I'm a different Bob, but I've got almost all of her solo recordings.  Bought Annie in Wonderland the week it (edit - it being the original lp) came out, and I have her autograph on an Annie Haslam CD cover.
