It’s a lifetime experience to be able to hear Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan live! Enjoyed every bit of it. He is THE BEST!
We were looking forward to the concert, but our excitement faded after waiting more than 2 hours. Show was almost 3 hours late. No explanations or apologies from sponsors or singer.
There is no doubt about the performance. It was outstanding. But the sound system was really poor. Most of the time could not understand the verses he was singing.
The area where this event complex is gets very congested during a show. Next time I expect Rahat to perform Bollywood numbers too. Qawali is a special evening and usually requires a spiritual guru’s presence. These people have made spiritual art a commercial one.
One of the most amazing show, really loved it rahat killed it
it was great show and did not expect it to go all original qawali...i thought it might be a bit fusion with modern music but no it was all original qawali a dream of mine came true to be at a event like this. A+ for all qawali lovers. and tabla master was great and same person that worked with NFAK.
Great venue but the event started late. Organizers could have announced it early.
Not as exciting as I had hoped. Performers Arrived and started over an hour late- dissapointng. Sound system was messed up. Performance was average.
Please mention in ticket heading that it a qawali, I thought the artist will play all new popular song in a modern setup. Rather it only presents very old cultural music.
My lifelong dream of seeing RFK came true. What a voice. A powerhouse!!! The only reason I did not give five stars is that the show was Qawali, not a fan of Qawali at all. Wish they had advertised that it was a qawali show. Still his voice tops everything.
Incredibly mesmerizing performance. We were enthralled to our core. As I was hoping he stayed to be basics of qawwali and he did.
Rahat Fateh Ali Khan was a powerhouse of energy! It was evident that he was enjoying performing for us just as much as we were enjoying watching him. He struck very high notes with such perfection, sang all the famous songs and kept us entertained throughout the 3 hour show. My only suggestion is directed towards the organizers. The show was supposed to start at 8.30, but it was well past 9.30 by the time they performed the opening act. So instead of the show ending at 12, it ended at 1.00 am. I don't know if they started an hour later than scheduled because the venue hadn't filled up yet. If this was the case, I think they could perhaps give a 15 min grace period after the scheduled time before they kick off the event, so that, at least in the future, people will be prompt at such events. Otherwise, they will continue to come according to the famous "Indian standard time". :)
Show was bizarre and cheesy. First off, it started an hour and a half late, during which time we were constantly pelted by advertisements, emcees calling out sponsors, etc. Since when do I pay $100 to listen to advertisements? Then, once the music started it was not at all traditional music - it was the same cheesy "world music" crossover stuff that annoys you when it's playing in a restaurant. Saxophone solos on half the songs - really? And honestly, other than Rahat the musicianship was hit or miss. We left after three songs. So disappointed. Here's the thing: you can tell that Rahat Fateh Ali Khan has an amazing talent. He has just gone down the wrong path of putting together a show. I hope he will take a fresh start with new music direction and production that is commensurate with his abilities.
well worth it!! played for almost 4 hours! will attend again the next time he is in town.
Rahat fateh Ali khan is best. Started show on time, did not waste a single minute. Nice venue. Parking facility was nice. Music system was nice
Amazing!!! Amazing!!! Amazing!!! Can't describe the feeling. Loved the concert. Rahat Fateh Ali Khan was amazing.
Best venue, best concert, amazing management Clean and organized
The host Jasmine was super awkward. But the rest of the show was freakin fire. show was also on time.. started at around 8:15pm and ended at 11:30pm.
Too much talking by the DJ and that Salman guy. First half was low energy and slow paced while the second half was almost too fast paced to catch up on main songs. Start time should mean start time!
Rahat Fateh Ali Khan gave a memorable performance! We thoroughly enjoyed his singing along with his entourage. He demonstrated incredible talent.......if you close your eyes you could hear his uncle, Nussrat. Continue the amazing work....you have a a talent, a gift.
