    Default Chicago

    I looked back 10 pages and didn't see a Chicago thread. Forgive me and merge if I missed it.


    Before I got so into Eagles, Chicago was my band. We have seen them in concert 8 times and decided not to go in April when they were an hour away because we were hoping the Eagles would come close.

    I love their horn section and Jimmy Pankow is one of the best instrumental arranger there is.

    Do you guys like them?

    I do not know why they are not in the Rock Hall of Fame. They should be.

    Yes, they should be!

    I had a bit of a crush on Peter Cetera for a while. I was lucky enough to see them live at the Capital Centre back in 1984 or so. Third row on the aisle. They had a comedian as the warm up act, which was different.

    they have an amazing catalog.

    I don't know why they aren't in the Hall of Fame

    I could listen to them for hours and used to until the Eagles took over.

    I have every album they made

    They put on an awesome show. Saw them once with Earth Wind and Fire and that was an awesome show. I love harmony and horns.

    If I could only listen to two groups it would be Eagles and Chicago

    I've always like them too. I had several of their vinyl albums back in the 70's, but have never replaced them. I hear them a lot on the radio though.
