There\u2019s no denying that many years have passed since the rock duo\u2019s rise to fame in the 1970s, but the sisters, now in their sixties, have still got it.<\/p>\n<p>The vibe throughout the crowd was that of youthful excitement, although the night remained fairly reserved with a good number of attendees understandably being over the age of 50. When the band played their major hits, like \u201cAlone,\u201d \u201cBarracuda,\u201d and \u201cMagic Man,\u201d the energy put into the songs was reflected in the audience; there was so much passion put into vocals and guitar with awesome projections in the background really amping up the show.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9179\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9179\" style=\"width: 420px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nexusnewspaper.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/heart.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-9179 \" alt=\"Heart (photo: Rob Porter)\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nexusnewspaper.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/heart.jpg\" width=\"420\" height=\"257\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nexusnewspaper.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/heart.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.nexusnewspaper.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/heart-300x183.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nexusnewspaper.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/heart-180x110.jpg 180w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 420px) 100vw, 420px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9179\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Heart (photo: Rob Porter)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Halfway through the night, Heart welcomed to the stage Jason Bonham, son of John Bonham, the late drummer of Led Zeppelin. Bonham had no major spotlight during his performance with Heart and played alongside Heart\u2019s drummer Ben Smith, covering a handful of Zeppelin tunes together for most of the second half of the show.<\/p>\n<p>The final song of the set, \u201cCrazy on You,\u201d generated a lot of energy and applause from the audience, making it an impossible note to end on. After a brief break and the joining of the Total Experience Gospel Choir from Seattle, the band began to play the Zeppelin classic \u201cStairway to Heaven\u201d and the audience absolutely lost it.<\/p>\n<p>Back in 2012, Ann and Nancy had played this song with Jason Bonham as a tribute to Zeppelin at the Kennedy Center and last night\u2019s performance was equally as mind-blowing: what an amazing opportunity for Victoria to experience their coming together firsthand. To have Bonham be a part of the performance was incredibly powerful, and such a perfect way to end an impressive show.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rock \u2018n\u2019 Roll Hall of Famers Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart took to an intimate, candlelit stage at Save-on-Foods Memorial Center the night of June 29, where they absolutely killed their tour\u2019s final show in Canada.
