Duran Duran At CMAC Ends Free Canandaigua Get Away Weekend |
|---|
 9/3/2023 - Canandaigua, New York - Today, we headed to lovely Canandaigua Lake to enjoy an awesome freebie from Deb the contest queen. Deb won a nights stay at the gorgeous lake side resort The Lakehouse on Canandaigua Lake and front row tickets to see Duran Duran perform at CMAC during their Future Past 40th Anniversary Tour. We arrived early in the afternoon and walked in Kershaw Park enjoying the nice views of the literally hundreds of boaters enjoying a fabulous Labor Day Weekend day on Canandaigua Lake. After, we headed to our hotel and checked in to our nice suite at the Lake House. It had a decent view of the lake from the lanai. We chilled by the nice lake front pool for a bit. We then grabbed a nice early dinner at New York Kitchen and then headed over to CMAC. It was a perfect night and the venue was packed including the lawn. We had front row tickets on the far right of the stage. The opener for tonight was supposed to be a band called Bastille but they had to cancel delaying the start of the show to 7:40 when Niles Rodgers & Chic hit the stage and played a great set. They opened with the classic Le Freak and played a medley of hits from Diana Ross and Sister Sledge. They sounded excellent both Nile Rodgers and the duo of female singers, Norma Jean Wright and Luci Martin, who were beyond good. They closed the set with Good Times. After a short intermission, Duran Duran made an epic outerspace entrance to the delight of the sold out CMAC crowd. They played an excellent almost two hour set. They played many classics including Hungry Like A Wolf, the James Bond song A View To A Kill and Ordinary World to name a few. They sounded excellent and Simon Le Bon's vocals were right on. They closed the set with The Reflex and Girls on Film and the sellout crowd was definitely entertained. They came out for a two song encore of Save A Prayer and Rio. Another excellent freebie getaway courtesy of the Contest Queen Deb, keep them coming.Slideshow | |
