Wish we could have heard him longer-everything he did was superb. He hasn't diminished at all. Total rapport with the crowd. Hope he continues to have good health and be able to tour as long as he wishes, cause we will always love him.
Loved the concert. He is definitely a man of few words, but I did not go to hear him talk but to listen to his incredible voice. Love his music and I am not a huge country music fan. This is the 3rd time I have seen him and will definitely go again.
He is witty and very talented! I took my husband, mother in law and sister in law - a terrific time was had by all.
Classic music by a classic performer ... good evening of tunes
DON WILLIAMS IS A LEGENDARY COUNTRY SINGER AND MUSICIAN AND THOROUGHLY ENJOYED HIS SHOW AND HOPE TO CONTINUE CATCHING UP WITH HIS SHOWS.
May be getting some age on him, and doesn't get around too well, but that voice is still spot on. 2 years in a row now and will continue as long as he keeps touring.
I was impressed with the opening act although an Irish country singer is a little different. However Don Williams gave an excellent show,his voice is as strong as ever and his sound man was far better than several we have had at previous Ameristar shows. Now if CSI will just learn to stop letting people in after the concert has started it will be even better.
Never a bad show with the Gentle Giant. Took my nephew and his wife and we all had a great time. Only bad moment was all the cell phone activity. It was clearly posted "no photography or video/audio taping" but I guess some people just can't read or are too rude to care.
We sang along to all of his songs! So much enjoyed the evening! Had always been a Don Williams fan, it was even better than we expected!!
Well into his 70s, Don Williams still has a voice as smooth as silk! One member of his band had to get him started on a few songs, but as previously mentioned he is well into his 70s and I am just very grateful I was able to see him. As a venue, the Ameristar was great. Location was easy to find, it was clean and employees were helpful. Our tickets were in the right risers, about halfway up, and I thought they were great seats!
Don still sounds as awesome as always! It'd been 20 yrs ago that if seem him! Wonderful show! Only disappointment was that he did not sing "Heartbeat in the darkness"!!!
Don Williams continues to be a stalwart entertainers. At 78 years old he is beginning to look frail but his baritone voice remains strong and clear. He is famous for delivering his classic country favorites without any theatrics, jus a chair, guitar, microphone and capable backup band. The man of few words has little to say between songs other than occasional "mercy" or "you people are fantastic." This concert at the intimate Ameristar Kansas City Pavillion was good with the exception of an intoxicated 50plus woman on the front row who thought the audience was there to see and hear her. The constant selfies with Don in the background and loud sing-a-longs despite the lack of talent was disrupting to the rest of the audience there to see and hear Williams.
I could have listened to him for hours. The real country singers are leaving us, if you get a chance to see him you better. I hope he makes it through KC again soon. Cant saying anything more that hasnt been said about this country legend.
Last week we saw Don Willaims in Branson @ the Oak Ridge Boys Theater and were we ever disappointed. The man should not be on stage and looks and sounds VERY ill. We have lovesd his music for years and years but this was as poor of a display as we have ever seen. The band had to cover for him in a big way but even that was easy to see through. The place was packed so I guess he got his money we just didn't get our moneys worth. Had we had any idea that it was going to be this bad we would have gone across town to see Moe Bandy. We were afraaid Don was going to fall off of his stool but if I had to bet the money would be is that he was strapped to the stool, couldn't even remember to appear that he was useing his left hand when playing the guitar about 30% of the time. Tried to get our money back and that is definately not happening.. If you want to see him make sure that he is well enough to perform
This was our third time seeing Don Williams in concert and he never disappoints. He sings his much loved oldies and still sounds like he did when he recorded them. Thanks for bringing him to Carolina Theatre.
I've loved listening to Don Williams music for many years and always wanted to see him live. I finally got the chance and was not disappointed! I know his health is declining, he sat on a stool for the concert but with his voice he doesn't need to be all over the stage with lights and smoke. He still sounds amazing! I'll definitely see him again if I get the chance.
wonderful; he's better with age. Hope he returns to us.
Attending The "Gentle Giant" Don Williams concert at the Carolina Theater is easily one of the top five events in my life. When the curtain rose to reveal the band members and the super talented Don Williams seated in the center, there was electricity in the air. The multi colored background stage added to the WOW factor...and Don Williams delivered a splendid performance. He sang all of my favorite Don Williams songs, making a memorable event that I will never forget.
I've seen him multiple times, and he never disappoints. He just sits there playing and singing. I do wish the light show would have been a little more calm this go around. But, that's just a preference that has nothing to do with him. Colm Kirwan, I've seen him a few times as well. I love him. I love that he stays to greet every single person. This review is giving an option for a video submission of the concert, but security was hot and heavy about not videoing.
We've seen him 4 other times, but this concert paled compared to his others. Seemed like he was just "going through the motions." He was on stage for exactly one hour (8:25 - 9:25 PM), sang about 19 songs, 4 or 5 of which we never heard of, never came out for an encore which really disappointed the crowd, who hung around a good 5 minutes waiting for it (the encore, usually "Louisiana Sat. Night"). No complaints about his voice and band, however, smooth as silk! I'd be interested to see what others thought.
