Barbara Wade and her daughter Elena Ciccarelli from Utica offered great accolades about Bethel Woods and the Donna Summer show.
Donna Summer Rocks Bethel Crowd
An energized and enthusiastic crowd did a lot of rocking and dancing at the Donna Summer show on Friday, July 11 at Bethel Woods Center for the Arts.
The Queen of Disco in the 70's brought her dance/pop/rock sound to Bethel where her loving fans continually interrupted her with applause and screams.
With a warm gentle summer evening and Donna's hybrid of American soul and European synthesizer-based music one just had to know they were going to be truly entertained.
Her six-piece band entered the Pavilion stage shortly after 8 p.m. dressed in attractive white suits and accompanied by three female backup singers....and we must also add three greatly talented dancers.
Add also five very large well-edited paneled background lighting and Donna's urging to "sing and dance along" with the lively music the audience proceeded to dance the night away.
Donna added interesting background information from time to time and pointed out to the Bethel Woods crowd that "I got nervous when I pulled into a cow pasture and I thank you for coming out."
Her colorful attire throughout the evening changed every set and added to the beauty that her voice brought to every song. Everyone got into the act with her singing of "On The Radio" and "Bad Girls."
As the Bethel Wood's crowd cheered her on she told them, "give it up."
Donna Summer and her entire musical group was more then just entertaining as she brought her musical talent and style to the great Behtel Woods and the hills of Sullivan County.....it just doesn't get any better.
A nice sidebar to the show was a conversation we had with Barbara Wade and her daughter Elena Ciccarelli who traveled all the way down here for this show from Utica, NY and noted that they ate some meals in Monticello and were staying at at the Best Western in Monticello. This being their first time here they offered accolades about Bethel Woods and made sure we knew that they would return for other shows.
This is what it's all about folks and what Bethel Woods has done for the economy of Sullivan County.
Don't miss the one and only Tony Bennett this Saturday July 19 at 8 p.m.
