I like it and wanted to love it…
by Corey on 4/30/24Obviously I love Tim McGraw and think he’s an entertaining performer. Overall I enjoyed this concert but it could’ve been better. I did enjoy the stage set up with how far Tim comes out into the audience, the visuals on the screen, and the setlist. I also personally like how Tim doesn’t talk a lot between songs. Now for the things I didn’t enjoy… it was very difficult to hear Tim singing over the music for the first few songs. Also, I don’t know why the shortened version of “Over and Over Again” had to be played again. He sang the shortened version when I last saw him in 2022. There are so many other great full length songs he could’ve performed instead. For “Highway Don’t Care” it would’ve been more enjoyable if Carly Pearce had come out and sang Taylor Swift’s part too. I don’t want to listen to a recording of someone singing, which leads me to my next point. After the concert, my mom mentioned that she thought Tim was lip syncing. We weren’t close enough to tell but she thought his singing sounded more like a recording. I didn’t give it much thought until I looked at other reviews here and saw a few others said that as well and then I see these sound issues are happening in arenas throughout the country. When I see this feedback, it makes me wonder if these sound issues are intentional. I hope it isn’t true as concert tickets aren’t cheap these days and concert goers deserve to see and hear high quality performances. I still love Tim though and hope the sound issues improve as the tour goes on!
