Solomons, MD – “This is a beautiful place,” declared Ann Wilson, three songs into Heart’s Saturday evening, May 23 performance at the PNC Waterside Pavilion at Calvert Marine Museum (CMM).
The normally peaceful island got a blast of the Rock ‘N’ Roll Hall of Famers’ impressive list of hits spanning five decades. Vocalist Ann Wilson and her sister, guitarist-vocalist Nancy Wilson featured their signature songs—Barracuda, Magic Man, Crazy on You, These Dreams plus an acoustical rendition of their 1987 smash “Alone.”
According to CMM officials, over 6,000 people were expected to attend the show, which kicked off the museum’s 30th year of Waterside concerts.
The evening opened with a lively, well-received performance by The Paul Reed Smith Band, fronted by the guitarist/guitar-maker, and graduate of Bowie High School and St. Mary’s College of Maryland.
On July 3, the PNC Waterside Pavilion at CMM will be the venue for a concert featuring Barenaked Ladies, the Violent Femmes and Colin Hay. Tickets are now on sale for that event through CMM.
