The Commodores were just as exciting when they performed tonight. The band was not the full
band as before, but just the same, an amazing show. The Commodores were a highly successful
funk/soul band of the 1970s and 1980s. The members of the group met as freshmen at Tuskegee
Institute (now Tuskegee University) in 1968, and signed with Motown in November 1972, having
first caught the public eye opening for The Jackson 5 while on tour.
