Review:
When a concert has its own Wikipedia page, you know it was a big one. It was a tribute for the victims of 9/11 and you know I wanted to be there, thankfully it was only a Metro ride away. Aerosmith went on early as they flew to Indianapolis for a show that night. The show was later broadcast on ABC, puzzling including full performances from some artists while skipping others. Surprisingly not much footage has escaped over the years, only a James Brown song and some audio (which may be audience). As some of the reviews mention, it was a show made for TV with many long breaks between sets (no revolving stage like some festivals). By the time Train finished I’d been there 8 hours, and it was another hour before Mariah Carey performed (plus they were out of food and drinks). I really wanted to see Michael Jackson, but I was dead on my feet and headed home after she finished.
