Danny is a Zen master!

[@stephenunderwood1993]

Was fortunate to see Jeff with Chicago. It made the night for me! Nailed all the bass and vocals. I hope to see this group sometime.

Mr. Seraphine is the last of the great American drummers of the era since the passing of my other favorite Dino Danelli. Wishing him all the best.

[@michaelgawel5823]

Well said!

[@michaelgawel5823]

Living proof that great human drummer beats click track every time!

[@salthedrummer1]

Dino and Danny deserve more credit big time...

Danny, what a joy to hear these 2 classics played the way they were intended to played - with FEEL! You’re the magic behind all those early Chicago arrangements. Not to be disrespectful to Chicago’s current lineup, but there’s really no comparison. They sound so sterilized & robotic now, with Walfredo clinging to tracks with very little space to explore. CTA, especially with the inclusion of Jeff, sounds a million times better. Add Champlin to this lineup and you’ll be THE quintessential Chicago band, with Leonid & Friends in 2nd place…and sadly, the “official” Chicago in 3rd. You’ve never sounded better live! Kudos, CTA.❤🥁

I agree Danny what and still is a big influence in my life as a drummer...

[@duece5976]

Great move having Jeff Coffey. Best vocalist since Cetera. I would see this band over whoever is in Chicago these days.

[@TCoulter1]

Jeff kills it!

[@salthedrummer1]

Yep Danny needs him permanently.

[@kenbrunette5848]

Love this lineup!

[@lamarravery4094]

Jeff Coffey's playing with Danny, that's awesome. I wish Jeff stayed with Chicago longer. He was pretty good.

[@tedmoret530]

Spot on, y’all! ☺️👍🏼

I saw CTA at Yoshis in Aug. 2023. All the Chicago hits! They were better than the current Chicago lineup, who I saw last year. Small club environment vs. an amphitheater.

[@marksilowitz3196]

Almost..........but not quite. Still, the best Chicago tribute band out there. Danny seems a lot more rock solid than e used to, and It's not quite the same abandon I remember. But I became a fan in 1970, and I don't perform either same abandon either. He is still an all time favorite drummer.

[@11BravoSicilian]

It’s all make pretend…. We’re Chicago, only Danny is

[@ronsrules1311]

Better trumpet player than Lee

[@gregsey8239]

Much better than the Chicago video I just watched. They had either a kid or a girl singing and it sounds horrible
