Our contributing photographer has seen Supernatural Santana six times and said this was a very powerful and energetic show. The house was packed and Carlos shredded solos on his Paul Reed Smith custom guitars.

Santana felt very comfortable with the audience that night and it was very much reflected in his performance. He commanded the room and is constantly changing. This is a show that must be seen more than once.
