Fossil Fuels: Rod Stewart/Stevie Nicks- March 26, 2011 Madison Square Garden, NY

Never really been a big fan of arena shows, but was pleasantly surprised by the Rod Stewart/Stevie Nicks gig at the Garden this past Saturday night. I put aside my rock snob presumptions and went with it. Turns out they both put on a good show, delivering most of their hits. The seats were free, the sound Ok and the crowd just mildly annoying. And for a few hours I gazed deeply into the amber of 70's AOR to discover that Jurassic Rock is alive and well.
