Celebrating 50 years as a band Triumph returned to the Allstate Arena, a venue the band played before decades ago, for an evening of rock.

The band, popular in the late 70s / early 80s, made waves earlier this year when they announced they’d be taking on a massive tour doing theaters, arenas, and more celebrating 50 years with a large scale production. With large screens, risers, lasers, smoke, and more the band ripped through a set of hits giving the crowd a trip through time.

The current line up consists of 3 original members who’ve all spent various time throughout the years in the band in the form of Rik Emmett, Gil Moore, and Mike Levine, with Phil X, Todd Kerns, and Brent Fitz rounding out the live touring band. The younger guns here help breathe some fresh air and life into the band even if Rik, who is over 70, still moves and plays better than those half his age.

It was clear from those in attendance this was a tour many thought would never happen and likely won’t happen again. Was it an over the top flashy affair, no. It was just a straight from the heart case of rock and roll through and through that showed at the end of the day, thats all that is needed.
