    Another Show Should Have Been Added

    by sexyat48 on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    I really enjoyed Ledisi. She was awesome. She was actually the best out of Mint Condition and Eric Benet. The Fox Theater reminded me of the Paramont. Both of their sound systems sound alike. If you are sitting on the floor, it is too loud and if you are sitting in the Mezz or the Balcony, you can't understand what the artists are saying. Also, the Fox Theater should make seating prices like the Paramont. I didn't really care for the prices at the Fox by having just one price for the floor seating.

    Eric Benet, Mint Condition,Ledisi good

    by bighead34 on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    The artist were great. Any of the artist could be the headliner. The Fox theater sound system was terrible. Compared to the Paramount down the street the Fox theater sucked. Three out of four users we dealt with were extremely incompetent. The ushers put people in our seats and they didn't want to get up. The theater was very hot in the balcony also. Back to the artist, all of the artist were very good. Ledisi did the best she could given the acoustic nightmare. Ledisi should have been given more time, she has a phenominal voice. Mint Condition was also squeezed and they could not sing all their hits. Mint Condition could be a headlining act if given the chance. The band was great because of real instrruments. Eric Benet was good but maybe not a headlining artist. Mr Benet was smooth but he is mainly a singer for the ladies. Overall a great concert, but please fix the sound system!!!!

    ledisi stole the show

    by djmally on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    Ledisi performance was off the hock that woman can sing. Mind Condition was ok and Eric Benet should have went on first. But over all the theater was nice.

    Outstanding

    by Justsexy on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    Everybody was Outstanding, and those DJ's that keep the party going between acts, are Michael Jackson "BAD"

    Great Time

    by CapriGirl on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    I thought overall was great. But I hard a time hearing Mint Conditions performance. The sound system was much better for the other two performances. It was great overall!

    Eric Benet was Smokin!!!

    by Gemynii on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    I could not help myself I was tweeting throughtout the show...my eyes were glued to the crackberry screen and the stage simultaneously from my bird's eye position...life was interrupted from all angles.... the drunk woman erupting ever so often in front us as if she were on stage...folks trapsing in and out...Anyways, Can I say this man brought his game to the plate...dressed in his white slacks, white shoes, white sunglasses and blue double breasted blazer....damn this man brought sex appeal to the stage...you could sense the heat swell rising with all the people fanning up a storm and the women screaming like its Madi Gras....oh boy! I love the fact Mr.Benet has command of the stage, his piano man, drummer and bassists thats all he needed and the stage was his to play....and did he. At first I was miffed when he left the stage...my friend and I were like "is his set over? oh no? then encore performance of "Georgie Porgie" and crowd went wild somewhat....All in all I enjoyed myself and would not mind seeing Eric Benet in concert again... Then there is Ledisi in her red pumps and she worked the stage as it was her own becuase she knows how to get a crowd going and she shut the place down..holy smoking grills!!!! this is my third time seeing this her live and if you have not seen her you are missing a sensational and dynamic performance. Honestly, I would have preferred her as the second act and not the opening act...just my thoughts. Mint condition sorry to say left a lot to be desired from on my part...the music itself was a bit too loud and I really could not hear some of their songs and I lost interest part-way until two of my favorite songs from them were sung and yes I got into the groove...special effects and all were good along with the rock star grooving at the end.. This line up was extraordinary and special....get your groove on...uh oh!!!

    Eric Benet Hasn't Lost His Touch

    by LadyTRS on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    Eric Benet's voice is beautiful. Great performance, could have added more songs though, I felt a little cheated. It did not feel like a full performance. I guess he was on a time limit. I could have done without all the flash photography. I guess they are allowing cameras now.

    2 out of 3 ain't bad

    by BobbyEarl on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    Ledisi's show has gotten bigger. She's added a couple of horns to the band, and she uses the hell out of the stage. You get a lot of legs with that enormous voice, and she managed to cover a lot of material in a short time... Somebody said she stole the show... I'd just say that I got my money's worth if nobody else hit the stage... Mint Condition kept the energy level elevated... They are a true band... You can feel them play off of each other, and somehow I didn't feel like they missed anything I really needed to hear... Stokely snuck in a lil' tribute to Luther when he emulated the end of "A House is Not a Home"... That man can sing... and all of those 40-somethin' year-old men were jumping around the stage like teenagers... Good stuff... Eric Benet hit every note and had the ladies melting with "Chocolate Legs" and "Femininity" but his performance fell a little flat... A bass player with a vocal mic he didn't use until his introduction at the end of the set... a drummer... and the MD on keys and laptop... All of the background vocals on a prerecorded track... He should go back to supper clubs and small venues...

    Ledisi should have been the headliner

    by Tfour on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    I was disappointed with Eric Benet. Both Ledisi and Mint Condition performed for about an hour, but Eric performed for about 40 minutes. Also, both Eric and Mint performed to tracks. I guess there wasn't enough money in the budget for actual background singers. I did not feel that I got my money's worth.

    Eric is sexy and amazing...

    by 1diva2love on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    Not only is Eric Benet one of the sexiest men alive.. but his show was simply intoxicating and sensual. He is the total package - nice to look at - and the brotha can really sing. He is extremely talented and serenaded the ladies with our favorite songs from his past and present records. I can't wait until he comes back again because I will definitely be there on the front row!

    Tha Bomb

    by enrgy02 on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    What can be said? If you were not there then you missed out. As often as these entertainers come to the Bay you would not even know it. You would have thought this was their first time around. It was new and refreshing. Ledisi was the opener and did a fantastic job. I would like to see her again on her own. She put it down! Mint Condition was good especially if you are a follower of theirs. They did some ol' school classics. Eric Benet, Eric Benet, Eric Benet, that's all I can say.They all deserved every penny of the high priced tickets. The only con was their sets were limited to about 45 min and it could have gone longer and it should have. They all have hits that would have had to place rockin'.

    Eric Benet was excellent!

    by Millie1 on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    The show was good, but the music was so loud that it drowned out the singers. It seemed as if Ledisi was screaming over the loud speakers and loud music. She sounded great but again speakers drowned her out. Mint Condition was ok. But, Eric Benet was the HIT of the entire show!! I would see him again and again and again.

    BUDWEISER CONCERT: ERIC BENET, MINT CONDITION, LED

    by MsDavis on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    Loved the entire show. Was very disappointed that the headliner ERIC didn't do as many songs as he normally does....but that's all the more reason to see him when he comes back to the bay. I loves some Eric :-)

    eric benet/ mint condition

    by hiphopalise on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    Mint condition was just okay.. the band was too loud and overshadowed the singing.. they sang mostly new songs , wish they would have sang more older stuff. Eric Benet was fantastic.. he sounded great and looked great as well.. he is a great showman !!!

    Great show...a little disappointed!

    by DimondPrincess on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    I loved the show overall. I have never seen any of the acts in concert before, so just being there was a real treat. Ledisi started the show off wonderfully (I thought she was going to hurt herself a couple of times--but she was rocking those red pumps). Then Mint Condition came on and the acoustics were so off that I couldn't really understand what they were saying other than the songs that I already knew (which weren't many), but still put on a good show. SOUL POWER! Then Eric Benet graces the stage and sings all the right songs, but he did it all in 30 minutes. As a headliner he should've been on a A LOT longer than that he has SOOO many songs that he could've sung. But overall good show!

    Loud does not mean great!

    by Earsplitting on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    The sound was horrible in the orchestra pit. It was too loud. You could barely hear the singers. Ledisi and her back up singers had wonderful voices, but you could barely hear them other the musicians she had on stage. The same for Mint Condition. WHERE WAS THE SOUND ENGINEER! Maybe the sound was better outside of the pit, but it was awful where we sat. Eric Benet, who had only three muscians on stage came through clear and beautiful. Less is more!

    ledisi stole the show

    by sanjosejazz on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    Mint Condition disappointed us, didn't sing the hits we were expecting, Eric Benet used some recording effects, but Lesdisi tore the house down...don't miss her ever!

    WONDERFUL

    by Nicrenee on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    It was great the only thing I would have changed was Mint Condition ....they should have sung a few more songs.

    Ledisi was great

    by LovelyChocolate on 7/27/09Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    I was looking forward to seeing Eric Benet perform last light but was slightly disappointed. He was singing over his pre-recordings although he had a minimal band. I expected more from him especially since he was the headliner. Mint Condition was O.K. Ledisi was the best, she should have been the headliner.
