Bryan Adams Rocks! Classic Hits & Lost Guitar Found!
Bryan Adams is still rocking stages and captivating audiences! The Canadian singer-songwriter recently delivered an impressive set at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas, blending classic hits with newer tracks. From the energy of "Run to You" to the anthemic "Summer of '69," Adams proved his enduring appeal.
A Night of Nostalgia and New Music
Adams kicked off his performance with "Run to You," transporting the audience back to the 1980s. Visuals of a foggy forest and highway perfectly complemented the song's theme of urgency and escape. He then transitioned to "Roll With the Punches," showcasing his newer material and emphasizing resilience in the face of adversity. A giant boxing glove hovered above the crowd, adding a theatrical touch to the performance.
Acoustic Heaven and Summer Anthems
The crowd was then treated to an acoustic rendition of "Heaven," a romantic ballad that has stood the test of time. Finally, Adams closed the show with "Summer of '69," a timeless anthem that continues to resonate with audiences of all ages. The crowd enthusiastically sang along, proving the song's lasting impact.
The Lost and Found Les Paul
But the music isn't the only interesting part of Bryan Adams' story. Did you know he sold his iconic Les Paul guitar in the 80s, only to have it returned to him years later? Adams explains that he sold the guitar because he favored his Stratocaster and ES-295. However, regret soon set in as he saw old pictures of himself playing the Les Paul. In a twist of fate, a fan approached him at a record signing in 2005, offering to sell the guitar back. Adams seized the opportunity and even re-recorded "Summer of '69" with it!
Bryan Adams continues to prove he's a force to be reckoned with, both on stage and off. From classic hits to incredible stories, he's a true music icon.
