    I was a little upset when I found out the Bobby wasn't there...He's ill...He was my main reason for going...but Bobby Rush put on a great show along with everyone else, except for Millie..Hell, I damn near went to sleep..Anyway, everything went well..By the way, if u ever think about the Ultimate Overnight Package, don't do it...because I didn't feel Iike I got what I paid for.

    Good show!

    by Xeromem on 3/24/13Star Plaza Theatre - Merrillville

    The show was very good with blues all night. Problem: Music was to loud so that singers were often drowned out. Sound system did not seem to be set correctly!

    It was Big, Fat, Juicy fun!

    by Honeybabe5 on 3/14/12Star Plaza Theatre - Merrillville

    This concert was great!!! There was something for Blues Lovers, and those that don't know they love the Blues. The concert was well organized, and most of the acts were great . With the exception of Sir Charles, everybody was great. I laughed so hard when Bobby Rush perfomed. I hope I look that good at 79 years old. He's still got it. Shirley Brown got all the single ladies involved and Woman to Woman will always be a classic. I can't wait till next year.

    Truly enjoyed the show

    My husband is a serioius blues fan, when I heard about the Chi Town Blues Festival I surprised him with this weekend concert package. He was truly impressed with the entire weekend. The concert was great and was especially impressed by how each acts time was monitored closely.

    Forgettable...

    by simplybeingme on 3/12/12Star Plaza Theatre - Merriville

    Some of the talent could no longer sing, while others had a hard time finding their crouch. The venue sold alcohol to weak bladder individuals and open one bathroom for men and one for the women’s. I certainly had the blues when I left there.

    CHI-TOWN Blues Festival was great!!!

    by Betsy44 on 3/12/12Star Plaza Theatre - Merrillville

    It's time for Bobby Blue Bland concert days to end. He is my favorite blues singer and two years ago, although he sat down his voice was excellent. I even made the comment for him to be turning 80 years old he still sings well. This year he was unable to hold his notes due to his age and condition, he could barely sing. Sir Charles Jones doesn't fall into the blues category to me. He is more of an R & B singer. Shirley Brown was wonderful and she still has a strong voice. Bobby Rush was very entertaining and had the crowd laughing, and still sings well. Mel Waiters was ok, Floyd Taylor jumped all around songs. Just when you got into it, he went to the next. The MC was funny and kept the crowd going, I plan on going back next year.

    Great!

    by made2bgr8 on 3/12/12Star Plaza Theatre - Merrillville

    The show was great and I loved that there was not a delay between acts. The South really knows how to keep the show moving and their PR is great which allows for concert goers to take photos with them for a minimal fee. They are very much hands on. My least favorite moment was Floyd Taylor performing a medley of his dad's songs because just as I would get into one he would change to another. I'd rather see the artist sing fewer full songs than a medley.

    Disappointing, with racist overtones

    by gypsyfan on 3/12/12Star Plaza Theatre - Merrillville

    When you call it a BLUES festival, it sholud be all Blues, about half was, the rest I considered R & B. The Blues acts were good, the rest I could have passed on. Also, not thrilled with the emcee making several comments directed at the "white people" in the audience and heard the word "cracker" once. I find it intersting that those comments were considered acceptable and in "good taste". It also became a political platform with several comments about voting for Obama and keeping a brother in office, again didn't belong at a concert. The people working for the Star Plaza were very nice and helpful, but the washrooms should have been cleaned and checked during the night and were in terrible shape by the end of the show. I used to really enjoy coming to the Star Plaza, but WOULD SERIOUSLY THINK TWICE, before attending another concert there again.
