A beautiful welcome to the holiday season. He is truly a wonderful talent.
His performance was phenomenal! The music was amazing, his vocals where amazing. He was very engaging with the audience. Everything about the evening was perfect!
Leslie has an amazing voice and what he did was terrific. But, he only performed for one hour and twenty minutes. I haven’t seen a show that short since Bob Dylan in 1989, whom u wouldn’t pay a nickel to see again. A Christmas show certainly isn’t short on material and he should have given us a couple of hours at least. the length was extremely disappointing. If he performed longer it should have been a five star show. he gets dinged for barely being on stage.
