overwhelmed first-time live show attendee
seems to be an over abundance of jaded negativity here so i will counter with - as OG fan but having never seen indigo girls live before i was unexpectedly gifted with this show by my partner and was simply impressed beyond belief, moved to tears by much of the performance and overwhelmed by the accompaniment of the "Dayton Chorus". it was both beautiful, inspiring and a testament to the power of live music. the only negative for me was the repeated and finally rude interference of some in the crowd who didn't seem to respect the artists' choice of their own playlist and understand how it's not just a laundry list of songs but an intentional intelectual exercise to achieve a particular result for this particular evening. the whole night was a deeply felt life moment that i will never forget. much love and respect to all.
A bit disappointed
I have seen the Indigo Girls several times and they are amazing artists, musicians, instrumentalists and most importantly, human beings. Emily’s voice seems strained and not at all what I expected having heard her in previous venues. I feel sad for her as it was apparent either she was not feeling well or that the title volume of her lungs ha# changed dramatically. The good news is she could get involved in yoga and breath work and other cardiovascular efforts to improve her stamina. Having no singing talent myself I hate to be judgmental but it was apparent her voice did not carry the same luster 😟
What is happening to Emily?
I love love live the Indigo Girls. They and ME were the stability for my daughters and me surviving a very painful, scary, funny, lost time in our lives. So to go with two of them to see the Indigo Girls tonight was exciting. We paid money that took me 6 months of saving, despite only getting lawn tickets. Melissa Etheridge was fantastic. So we cannot blame anything on Ravinia. Amy was incredible- well, I can only say through The Power of Two. Cuz that is when we left because Emily was so far off tune that we were left with startled looks, gasps, and then I cried, sad because she has lost her voice due to age or relapse or whatever else I could imagine. Because I can not bring myself to believe she has just become sloppy. Song after song messy, Amy on it and Emily off key. I love the Indigo Girls. But not tonight. Tonight I was heart broken.
Indigo Girls we showed up for you
Many loyal fans paid a high price for tickets and showed up for the Indigo Girls but not sure the girls were 100% on board with the venue or were felling healthy??. Both appeared nervous and Emily’s voice struggled most of the show. If there are empty seats for Sunday show, please invite the guests back from Friday’s’ performance who deserved at least 1 more good song.
Just not themselves tonight
Lucy opened for Indigo girls again and continues to be funny, talented and a fine entertainer. Lyris Hung was amazing on violin! The venue was extremely hot. The Indigo Girls just didn’t seem themselves. We have seen the Indigo Girls so many times in so many places over past 28 years. They are amazing. Something was off tonight, particularly in Emily’s voice and concerning to me that maybe she wasn’t feeling well. Love them all and wish the best as they continue their tour. Take care and safe travels.
Sound issues/ song selection
Let me begin with the fact that I am A huge fan of the indigo Girls. I was sincerely disappointed last night by the sound quality (couldn’t hear their voices on some songs), Emily’s voice which was not right-hope she’s ok, and the song selections. Not certain if the song selections were influenced by Emily’s voice as they outright did not even play at least 7 or 8 of their all time greatest songs. Hope they can get it right for the rest of their tour!
