Worst concert I've ever attended!
by QueenofPurple on 12/31/11Fair Park Music Hall - DallasRating: 1 out of 5I bought tickets for the show as a Christmas stocking stuffer gift for my husband! Both of us were sick the night of the show, but we decided to make the best of it and not let the tickets go to waste...little did I know....my money had gone to waste when I purchased the tickets! I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO A CONCERT WITH PRE-RECORDED BACKGROUND MUSIC AND VOCALS, HORRIFIC SOUND SYSTEM, AND HIDEOUS LIGHTHING...WHAT A JOKE!!!! The concert was to begin at 8pm, it didn't get underway until after 9pm, with what I consder some pre-show mess! Dave Hollister came on at 9:45, then followed by Joe. Ironically, one of Joe's songs begin to play, and the cd skipped....and Joe said "this is what happens when you sing to cd's." The turning point for the night for me had come long before that moment, but that really did it for me.....I got up and left the auditorium and the show ended shortly afterwards. We left the venue in parking lot traffic, made it home about 20 miles away by 12;05 am. That translates to the fact that Dave Hollister and Joe performed a total of less than 90 minutes collectively! I don't think it's fair that artists should sell concert tickets for shows like this at the same prices they would with live music, back up dancers, etc. I'm thoroughly disgusted!
