Wow-if you haven't seen these guys in concert yet-you need to get tix ASAP. this is my 3rd time to see them in Chicago. Each time is better than the last.Ben never fails to amaze & the Relentless7 are beyond talented as well!
I have been going to concerts for 40 years...and Ben and the 7 blew my mind. So cool, so deep both when quiet or full tilt rockin' The concert's eco theme was very inspiring and the NIU kids just made me so proud of their generation and hopeful for the future. Keep on rockin' in the free world all!
Ben Harper’s voice was great as usual, and it was really cool to finally see him live. Harper was great; Relentless 7 I could’ve done without. It seemed that the lead guitarist of R7 was more the center of attention than Harper was (WAY too many guitar solos on his part). I would definitely see Harper again, but not with this band. I will NOT, however, go to another concert at the NIU Convocation Center. The beer ‘area’ was a small pen that could only hold 125 people at a time; you could not bring your drinks into the show. The seating on the floor was unnecessary; with the small amount of people that attended this show (only about 500), everyone could have easily stood/moved around/danced while enjoying the show instead of being confined to the space in front of your assigned folding chair. There was plenty of available stadium seating for those that wanted to sit and watch, but for those that prefer to move around a bit it wasn’t cool. While the facility was newer and very clean, I didn’t feel that it was rock concert friendly. The crowd was lame too- no one seemed excited to be there; not a very lively crowd, very weird vibe.
I had only heard of Ben Harper through my fiance. So when I found out he was playing near Chicago on my fiance's bday, I had to buy the tickets. Not only did he rock the show, but He even took a request from my fiance, who loved his version of Sexual Healing by Marvin Gaye! He made my man's day and got one more fan in Me! Love, Love , Love Ben and the 7!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought the show was amazing. Great seats great price....I wish I could have taken more friends with me! They played some great hits!
