Ruben sang some amazing ballads. He truly can be the next Luther Vandross! Clay was great as usual but do wish he would have sang several more ballads. At times it seemed like he was screaming? Maybe the size of the venue. Clay has an amazing voice and when you hear him sing you want to hear him some sing some more!
I am 58 years old, and I have told everyone who will listen -- this is, hands down, the best concert I have ever been to. Clay and Ruben were fantastic! We all know they both have tremendous singing talent, so that was no surprise, but these two are fantastic entertainers as well. They were funny, touching, down-to-earth, and sincere. They both showcased their individual talents, and also worked together as an great team, while staying true to themselves. You could tell they had a mutual respect for each other. They kept the energy high in the theater the entire night. They gave their best effort to continuously entertain. I would see this concert again, without hesitation. Keep up the great work.
I thought Clay Aiken was fantastic and Ruben Studdard was good !
really liked the contrast in musical selections between the two. suggest preacher skit be edited and cut a bit. could be offensive to some and was a bit amateurish. i'm not a clay mate . both have wonderful voices and a comradery that seemed sincere. i enjoyed the show very much . surprised theater not full and think a bit more promotion is needed. musicians top notch and so was female singer, especially since on short notice she had to fill in for other singer who was ill and not performing that night. since this was only the second night of the tour, i'm sure it will keep getting better and better.
What an entertaining, fun show! Great music, sung by great singers--including Casey Thompson!--with comedy and some nostalgia thrown in. I was up on my feet with the rest of the audience during portions, and just listening with a contented smile on my face--and in my heart--for the rest of it. These 2 guys are SO much better than most of the "singers" today, it was a pleasure and an honor to have them sing to me!
The show was absolutely fabulous and very entertaining! They did not just come out and sing songs - they danced, had a lot of comedy and they sang well over 50 or 60 songs! A very fast paced, but wonderful show. The back-up singer, Casey was also fabulous. I would definitely recommend the show to everyone and would definitely go back again! Clay's voice it truly amazing!
SO MUCH FUN!!!! These guys have remained friends since AI in 2003! They both are so different in personalities and voices - which they used to their advantage and "playe off each other" . Both were in perfect voice! The back-up singers are also terrific, as is the band! 2 thumbs up for energy and fun!
This concert was a sheer delight their voices were spot on, and their comedic timing was perfect, what a awesome show!!! I would go again and again!
We drove 2 hours to Jacksonville and stayed at the Hyatt a block from the theater. It was totally worth it. 2 hours non stop of amazing music and performance. The two play off of each other so well and the girl singer was phenominal.
Not at all what I expected -- Loved it!! Their interaction was so natural -- Clay the animated one and Rueben right behind -- I especially enjoyed the 60' 70's music and loved the dancing and vocals. I thought it would be about their own music but their voices made ALL the music sound wonderful! I would recommend the Sound Tech lower the BAND and let us hear more of their voices. I was on the second row and it was apparent that Clay and the band kept asking the sound person just off the stage to bring up the voices -- it would last one or two songs and then back to the same sound. In spite of the glitch -- I would highly recommend this concert to ALL people who want to have fun, laugh, hear great music and have a wonderful couple of hours!!
The show was much better than I expected. They both sang popular songs from the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s. They played off each other well, and had lots of fun with each other. Had a fantastic backup little blonde singer with the show that could really belt out the tunes also. Just had a great time.
The Ruben and Clay concert was so much fun. The singing was amazing and the two of them together were very entertaining. I truly had the time of my life.
The concert was high energy and very enjoyable. I loved all the song selections and enjoyed both Rueben and Clay. The only complaint that I had was that the music was way too loud and at times would drown out the beautiful voices of both performers. I would have like to have heard more vocals and less band.
The event was Amazing!. My big problem was that for $30.00 seats x 2, We had a view of two camera men during the entire show. Our seating was ORB F, seat#'s 7&8. When I attend the events I love to watch the complete choir as well as other guest performing. I was disappointed.
What a great night of music and history. There is no better entertainment for the money you spend. The pre-show recordings and reflections of MLK were inspiring however too loud to the point of being annoying. I felt that the time allotted to that portion of the program was excessive probably due to it being over-amplified and the noisy analog nature of those recordings. A very fitting tribute however to a great man and an important part of American History.
This show was amazing! I took a friend along who had no idea what to expect and we were both blown away. We have seen many shows at the Meyerson, this one will be hard to top. Can't wait to see it again next year.
I would recommend this event to everyone. It's a great event for the entire family especially when kids can see the young dancers in the show and it can inspire one to dream and take an interest in the arts, and there is always a historical value where you learn something about Dr. King that you may not have known.
Central Park Summer stage - Gospel stage from 3pm. It's free concert series that we can enjoy trend artists with free of charge. This day, in the foggy rain, bunch of people joined together to enjoy the stage. This time I found many black people in the crowd. I am always interested in audience because it seems that the type of audience is depending on the type of artist. The stage started at 3pm on time with an organizer's greeting. At 3:12 pm, Ruben showed up on the stage. He was in a black suit and white shirt. His performance was stately and calm. He sang many famous songs such as 'So Amazing'' Having a party'. They are my favorite songs. He has his OWN vocal, which means his voice is his original and characterized. I really enjoyed familiar songs with different arrangement. I do like men's mature voices. The show finish at 3:25pm.
