The Man singing the Song and the Trumpet player and the trombone player are Original members and in their upper 70's and still performing

Really touching moment at 0:32 when Robert Lamm looks up at the sky remembering his late bandmate Terry Kath

Chicago- awesome job. Please come back next year.

[Faithwitness]

Wonderful, thank you. I saw them twice when they were still called Chicago Transit Authority 🚌🎶

[JamesMoore-uncu]

So GOOD to see people being patriotic and waving flags and enjoying a home-grown band like Chicago. They were INCREDIBLE, such awesome music. Proves how the 60s/70s were the best time for music in this country. Bravo Chicago for carrying the torch forward! RIP Terry Kath.

Robert Lamm looking & sounding really good! Neil sounded pretty darn good also. But I still enjoy the 69-77 Chicago videos when Terry Kath was their leader.

De Chicago band, una de mis canciones preferidas. Rica rola en todo.

[rickstan]

in same way wish I were back in the day but just being there might have been good enough

[trendwave]

Great music survives the test of time. Different band members, different variations but the SONG remains the same !
Thank you Chicago for all your fantastic music and memories.

The second singer is he original. I saw them singing in 1973 on a video. I can tell the first guy looks like the keyboard guy, but the second one not sure of. And honestly they look better to me now at this age then back in 1973

Чикаго, продолжайте играть, и радовать.

Assuming we can get the results of this election certified by the end of the year…there will be a New Year’s Eve party so loud it will be heard in Moscow. I am not much for fireworks…but for this I will make an exception.

[BirdDogey]

So few original members. Basically, a tribute band.

[liannebedard]

For those who are suggesting that all older folks are….probably ineligible for…whatever…two rebuttals…Robert Lamm…and Bernie Sanders.

Except "statues" cannot tell their story their own way they were taken down.
