Los Lobos Tickets

While yes, the event was awesome there were three things that could have made it superbly awesome. 1) For $85 seats we sat right in front of a huge speaker hanging from the ceiling and could only see the feet of the musicians--it was taken care of when I complained--we got moved to better seats; 2) there was no dancing--how can you not dance as you hear the tunes of LIttle Joe. In some instances the atttendants were rude as they tried to push you back into your seat. 3) Santana didn't play many of his old tunes. Otherwise, all the music was great and it was a wonderful way to celebrate my birthday.

they were fantastic!!, a night that will go in the books

This was one of the best concerts I have ever been to!

We loved the show, it just wasn't enough. Little Joe did a memorable performance and Los Lobos was unforgettable. Carlos was the highlight. There just wasn't enough of him. At $150+ per seat, we expected more.

This show was amazing - from Little Joe to Los Lobos to Carlos Santana! Great seats, great songs, great time all the way around!

I was expecting to hear Linda and the Mariachi's, I enjoyed last years much better.

Gotta give it up to Carlos and Los Lobos, they really turned it out. Had one of the best times.

I was extremely disappointed with most of the concert. Little Joe was the best of the night. Los Lobas appeared to be unprepared and at one point mentioned a member was missing. Some kid kept running around the stage during the preformance messing with the equipment. looked very tackie. I love Santana but I was disppointed with that too. it was more like a jam session then a Mariachi festival. I was under the impression that Linda Ronstadt was going to perfrom.. my bad for thinking that since she was listed as the Artistic Director. well the night would not have been so bad if maybe she would have been the one introducing the first band or even reading the prayer / poem at the beginning. so disappointed with the evening!

REASON WHY I WENT THERE WAS TO SEE SANTANA. CONCERT COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER.

This was the best concert that I have ever attended. The music was awesome!! The crowd was great too! Everything was so organized at the HP Pavilion, it was the best!

SHOULD HAVE PLAYED LONGER PARKING AND TICKET EXPENSIVE

We've never seen any of the performers, nor been to HP Pavilion, San Jose, CA, but what a treat. The concert began with a short video on Cesar Chavez's role in uniting the California farm workers followed by Little Joe and the Family's diverse set of opening music. The children were already professional horn blowers and the adults were seasoned artists. Little time was wasted getting the audio just right. Los Lobos followed with masterful numbers that made me wonder how Carlos Santana was going to shine after hearing this remarkably talented group. Carlos Santana was eventually (modestly ) introduced like a part of this one big Mexican Family of Performers and concert goers. He humbly matched his picking with the lead Los Lobos picker and the crowd went wild. Totally awesome!!!

I had never listened to Little Joe and not so much to Los Lobos. But what transpired last night was incredible. When Carlos Santana joined Los Lobos well what can I say, "it was orgasmic!" What incedible voices, songs, and memories. I was proud to be among "mi familia." This must happen again next year.

Brought back so many childhood memories, I loved the whole comcert. It was so enjoyable to watch the people express themselves to the music

I have seen Los Lobos and Santana several times at different event. But I thought that they were fantastic together and would love to see them together again soon.

The San Jose Mariachi Festival Concert Tribute to Cesar Chavez was not only fun but was for such a worthy cause! Little Joe y la Famila band was first to play. I enjoyed their music. They were very entertaining. The performance of the Los Lobos’ band was incredible. Their versatility from playing old familiar Mexican songs to rock music was awesome. Their energy was infectious. You truly had to hold back from getting out of your seat and dancing. Dave Hidalgo mesmerized me with his musical talent. Not only with his extraordinary talent in playing several musical instruments but his voice is just as beautiful. The entire band has unbelievably talented. When Santana came on stage it was Cesar Rosas that played his guitar surprisingly better than Santana. My husband and I enjoyed this concert immensely. He was already a fan of both Los Lobos and Little Joe y la Familia, We are both fans of Santana’s. All in all it was an amazing night both musically and to be a part of this Tribute to honor the Great Cesar Chavez and his cause!

As a tribute to the life and legacy of Cesar Chavez, the event was a an expression of gratitude, love and devotion. Each musical performer brought their own special gifts to the memorable gathering. Both young and old kids witnessed a moving and melodius affirmation to the joy of life and unity of purpose. Little Joe started the festivities, Los Lobos gathered momentum and Carlos revealed his soul. I remember listening to him practice in the mission when we were kids. We parked outside the garage on our bikes and enjoyed the free concert. To reflect on those days and see where we all are now makes me thankful for the gift we share called life. The jam when Carlos and Los Lobos started playing together was essentially the joining , on a spiritual level, of each of the members present. The spirit moved within us. Joyful tears were shed.

The show was great w/Little Joe and the familia, then Los Lobos were awesome, Santana was okay, but you couldn't really hear him play his guitar since there so many others playing theirs onstage....and then at the end ...it was just banging....screaming guitars jam which turned me off...with Santana and Los Lobos.

The show was good. however, Santana played maybe 4 sets -songs. i think for he being the "bill" than i would have liked to hear him play more songs. Was he late? was that the plan for him to only play for a short period? Do not know, but i must say what i heard was GREAT!!

I thought Linda Ronstadt was also performing. Santna was horrible. Little Joe was great and so was Los Lobos.
