Concert Review - Van Morrison, March 1, 2007 - Page 2

I don't recall seeing the upper most seats being used for most of the shows that I've taken in, but apparently, they were going for $50. It's possible that this show outsold The Who. Like Bob Dylan, who is enjoying a new peak of popularity with his recent # 1 album, I hope people discover Van Morrison, who is also a true music legend. Van's new album is a compilation of songs used in movies and I can vouch that it is terrific. On sale only at the show was a double CD for $20 from the Austin City Limits festival, which I have listened to non-stop for a few days. It's excellent.

I would rate this show at 5/5 stars. I don't know what he could have done to make it better, save for play longer.
