I think most went to see Stevie Wonder perform, but he did not perform very much and most of the show was done by ok artists. Overall I think seeing Janelle Monet was my favorite though. Wasn't a fan of hers till that night. Tickets were cheap and went to a good cause so can't complain to much.

Rating: 3 out of 5by Amanduhmonster on 8/9/11Hollywood Bowl - Hollywoood Rating: 4 out of 5by Anonymous on 7/28/11Hollywood Bowl - Hollywood To be in the same airspace as Stevie Wonder was nothing short of amazing. I do wish he would have done a few more songs. The other artists were awesome as well. Ricky Minor did a great job!
Rating: 2 out of 5 Not so Good
by XYZN on 7/28/11Hollywood Bowl - HollywoodStevie Wonder was the reason I bought tickets and he did not even do a good representative set of his own songs. There was too much of the "lesser" acts and Stevie doing other songs true these performers were the backbone of Motown but we came to see Stevie, and to top it off he did not even do anything in the first half . IF this was Ricky minors idea of a good arrangement he is pathetic I could have set up a better mix! It also seems as though Stevie Wonders name was used just to sell tickets as a draw to what was a very lack lustre show with 3rd rate talent no one would pay to see. In essense this was probably the worst event I have ever been to at the Bowl.

by Keiksko on 7/28/11Hollywood Bowl - HollywoodIt was a great concert, the legendary Stevie Wonder, Ricky Minor, and all his friends delivered us the huge power of Soul. As I learn singing, it was a good experience.

by Yofie1 on 7/27/11Hollywood Bowl - HollywoodI would have liked to hear more of Stevie Wonder! I liked the other performers but not enough of Stevie Wonder. His House Full of Toys was the same. I would prefer to see just him!!!
Rating: 4 out of 5 Great performances, but too short!
by Lynnja on 7/27/11Hollywood Bowl - HollywoodI liked how each act was on schedule and didn't leave that much of a time gap between the artists. However, I really wished Janelle Monae could have done more than 3 songs. 5 songs at a minimum would have sufficed. And I'm sure you have received many reviews regarding Stevie Wonder's short performance as well. I wish he had performed more of his original songs and performed for at least an additional 5 songs as well. Overall, I was expecting to be there until at least 11pm, but the show ended around 10:15. The short length of the show was disappointing.

Rating: 3 out of 5 Wished for more Stevie songs!!!
by Weirdolin on 7/27/11Hollywood Bowl - HollywoodAll performers were fun, especially Ms. Sharon Jones. Loved her set! I do wish Stevie had covered more of his songs. He was the reason I bought the tickets. He only covered two of his songs...that was really disappointing. Overall the music was groove and soulful. Note to Mr. Rickey Minor - great job putting together an eclectic, talented group of musicians! Next time PLEASE give us more of Stevie Wonder's own songs, PLEASE! PLEASE!
Rating: 4 out of 5 Great evening if it wasn't for the parking lot
by Annabella99 on 7/27/11Hollywood Bowl - HollywoodThe Hollywood Bowl is such a beautiful venue, especially on a warm summer night. People can enjoy food and a glass of wine while chatting with friends and getting ready for the show. Stevie Wonder was as fabulous as 30 years ago. He and Janelle Monae were the highlight of the evening and absolutely fantastic. As for some of the "friends" - I wish they would have skipped some of them. Rickey Minor as a host was also completely unnecessary. Leaving the parking area was an utter nightmare. We were parked in the first row and thought we'd be out in minutes. No. For some strange reason traffic control had blocked off the left hand turn which is a straight shot to the 101. So we were waiting 45 minutes because nothing was moving. Rediculous!
