That was taken at his final concert at Red Rocks in June of 2002. My point is that Fogelberg’s talent as a musician is rarely mentioned with pundits concentrating mostly on the lyrics to his ballads, but he was a virtuoso. That’s one of the reasons I enjoy the instrumentals on Twin Sons of Different Mothers and No Resemblance Whatsoever so much.

I saw Dan my final time in Atlanta, the Full Circle Tour, 2003!

He was looking and sounding very fine at that show!

The following year I was thrilled to hear of another tour in the works-and would have gone to see him again if he came within my reach!...Then - the sad news was announced of his illness!

Glad to see there are others appreciative of not only his writing but his musicianship, which is typically overlooked. He was the whole package and was especially good in a live setting (my Experience). Never saw him at Red Rocks, but when I lived in Boulder saw many concerts and really liked the venue.

Dan will be missed.
