A rainy Friday evening on June 23 did not keep fans from dancing the night away to Steve Miller Band at Koussevitzky Music Shed at Tanglewood in Lenox, Ma.
Bruce Hornsby and the Noisemakers opened up the evening with an hour-long set playing a great selection of their hits such as “My Resolve,” “That is the Way it is,” and “Mandolin Rain.” Bruce chatted very little in between songs but did mention that he was happy to return to Tanglewood for the first time in 29 years.
During the brief intermission while the stage was being prepped, people mingled with friends and neighbors as well as walk up to the stage edge to snap photos of the iconic white pegasus design from the album Book of Dreams on the drum kit.
Steve Miller Band took the stage and with a clever introduction they started off their set with “Swing Town” followed by many hits such as “Fly like an Eagle,”” The Stake,” “Jet Airliner,” “Born in the USA,” and “The Joker” during their 90-minute set. Steve also shared a fun personal story about his first Les Paul guitar which he had on stage with him.
