This was not our first-time seeing Norman Brown. He always puts on an amazing show. However, the sound system at the Akron Civic Center was off that night. Microphones not working, lots of loud pitch noises from feedback. It was sadly not as enjoyable as we hoped.
Don’t know if it was the band instrument settings or Civic Theater but the sound quality was awful. Also, not the Norman Brown I am used to while streaming. Left halfway through the set.
Hubbs Groove Band was the opener and they are a good band and female singer was wonderful. Norman Brown and band put on a great show. They had issues with the sound but they were working on it. The music was a bit loud or maybe I’m just getting old. The theatre had plenty of helpful workers and security. The bar staff was very friendly. I really enjoy the parking decks being free on the weekends as well. It’s very nice not to have to drive to Cleveland for good jazz concerts.
The Rubber City Jazz Festival is a great event. My hubby and I look forward to this each year. What an awesome show and great date night event.
Very talented, energetic jazz guitar player with a solid band…
He definitely knows how to put on a show! I enjoyed the music from start to finish!
Hubbs Groove was Phenomenal! Norman Brown & Band, High Energy!!! Appreciate Akron Civic venue, just request sound system maintenance..
Norman Brown played well, but his sound system was much, much too Loud!!! You really couldn't understand any lyrics he or his background performers were saying. The gentleman next to us flagged down an Event Staff worker and requested for him to relay a word about the sound system being too loud! After Norman Brown finished his performance, you could hear the speakers ringing without anyone playing anything, and several people around us left to stand outside the seating area because they thought it would be too loud for the next performer (Euge Groove). The Event Staff worker must have gone backstage to let them know about it because Euge Groove had excellent sound during his turn on stage. Other than that particular act, the concert was pretty nice.
Had the chance to attend the Louisville Jazz Festival coming from Wisconsin really enjoyed the Pavilion in the park thought every act that performed were fantastic looking to next year’s performance will definitely attend
This event was great! All of the performers were amazing. I loved attending this event. The venue and all event staff did an outstanding job from start to finish. We plan to attend every year! Keep bringing live music to Louisville!!
His show was very short Only last 30 minutes Very disappointing
I always love seeing Norman Brown perform. He always puts on a great show! He did not disappoint at the Louisville Jazz Fest. I can't wait to see him again!!
Norman Brown and Euge Grove put on a show! Props to those guys. See you next year.
Eric Darius Peter White & Vince Ingala jazz in pink Eugene Groove Paul Taylor was very good
Well worth the money, must see him main attraction solo concert.
I enjoy seeing Norman Brown anytime he comes to Detroit!!!! I make a point of getting my tickets early so I can get a up close and personal approach to his performances!!! This concert was full of his favorites and some new music from his recently released CD - Let's Get Away, but the latest CDs he has made, Let It Go, Heart to Heart, and my all-time favorite----The Highest Act of Love---every cut on that CD is unique and serves all of my listening pleasures!!!! My favorite songs are Words of Wisdom and Don't Make Me Wait!!! His revisiting of Jimmi Hendrix, George Benson and others really brought and showed his musical talent and brought the audience to their feet!!!! Great show, great musical message!!!
Enjoyed Tim Bowman immensely which built the excitement for Norman and then he delivered.
I thought the Norman Brown Concert at The Aretha would be CANCELED DUE TO THE SEVERE STORM, but, "Rain or Shine, The Show Must Go On" and that's exactly what happened! Once the weather started to ease up, I arrived at 8:30 P.M. and Tom Browne, Melanie Fiona and NORMAN BROWN were definitely ELECTRIFYING AS A THUNDER STORM! Great Show!!
I’ve seen Norman Brown several times previously. He happens to be one of my favorite jazz artist. His performance Wednesday was not his best. Something was a little off.
The show was great. Both Norman and Tim are great performers. I will definitely go to see them again.
