Concert Review

As you know, I was recently at the Lenny Kravitz concert in Winnipeg last week. Overall, the production was quite good. The part of the production that I like the best was the lights. The weren't overly complicated or anything, the just seemed to suit the performance.
In one review I read, the writer said she didn't like the fact that there wasn't a more complicated, but it was just right for me. I loved the fact that they had the lights going exactly to the music and the beat. As you already know, simple things amuse me. And I know it may have been a bad thing, but I loved it when the keyboard didn't work. I think seeing him throw it off the stage was probably better than the solo that there would have been.
One thing I didn't like about the production was the loudness. Now I'm all about being loud, but it just seemed too loud. And the thing is that Lenny is a man that can hit some fairly high notes, so sometimes it was overwhelming.
Somethings I didn't like about the concert in general was the outros. On some songs they were good, but sometimes they were the same length as the song to begin with. And most of the songs had long outros, so it got repetitive.
That being said, it really picked up when they played American Woman. They just kept the energy up from then on. I also liked the connection he had with his fans. How many artists do you know go out into the crowd and interact with the fans. The last thing I liked was the musicianship. No one ever missed a beat, even when things weren't working properly.
The concert was an awesome experience, but would have been better without all the super long endings.
