Earth, Wind & Fire is at the Altria Theater tonight.

The band formed in Chicago, Illinois, in 1969.

The band’s music contains elements of African music, Latin music, funk, soul, jazz, pop, rock, and other genres. The band is known for the dynamic sound of their horn section and the interplay between the contrasting vocals. The kalimba (African thumb piano) is played on all of the band’s albums.

Although they lost founding member Maurice White last year, the band is carrying on, spreading not just entertainment, but also inspiration.

This morning Richmond police converged and roped off an area on the North Bank Trail, beneath where S. Laurel ends in Riverside Park.

No information was given, but it looked like it might have been a death scene given the ambulance and numbers of investigators.

Will update as more info becomes available.

Update: Unofficial reports are that it is a death investigation but foul play is not suspected.

If you have not done so already, don’t forget to sign up for your Recycling Perks.
