Van Morrison Reviews

VAN SUCKED

Venue was amazing, Van Morrison did not relate to his audience and did not sing any of the music that he is famous for. A true disappointment!!

DISAPPOINTING

Gosh, have waited all my life to see him finally! Came across country! Knew there was a new Album with songs that are repetitious! But have never been to a concert, where, the audience was never acknowledged, and actually made to feel like, maybe the person had better things to do. He never once said thank you! To the 7000 people that spent good money! To be there! The one classic he sang, he left mid song!!!! Then let the band and back up singers finish!! Never saw saw him again!! No Hi Bye or Kiss my ass! His voice is so strong!! Why would he not sing some classic songs mixed with the new? Everyone was disappointed!

DISAPPOINTING

I waited to long to be able to catch van morrison and tonight i am returning from the greek theater after hearing him. What a rip off. After an hour of songs i never heard of, he sang Gloria and walked off the stage never to return or play any of his hits, brown eye girl, moondance, etc. Mondance was my late brothers favorite song and i went kind in homage to him. Mr. Morrison decided it wasn['t worth his time and left us all sitting listening to his band do solos expecting him to return. He did not and everyone i spoke to left disappointed. Never went to a concert where the artist didn't do his hits.

VAN PLAYED NEW MUSIC BUT NOT FOR THE FANS

After reading many negative reviews sadly I have to agree , and I'm someone who if stuck on an island only had one artist to listen to would be Van Morrison. I understand artists pushing new material but you can't forget what got you there. Only 3 maybe 4 recognizable songs and didn't sound like the way they were recorded. If you want to try new stuff do it for $25 tickets not $150 plus, the old stuff is worth that not the new. I do like country music but a country style lead guitarist, who is an excellent musician, but it's not the VM we all know and love. The musicians are top rated, but the song list is very disappointing. I would recommend passing on this tour, save your $ for the Stones, Daryl Hall, Bonnie Rait, or Smokey Robinson, they still play for their fans.

HORRIBLE

First I must say - we were warned this was not going to be a good experience. Obviously I ignored the comment. We grew up listening to Van Morrison. We attended his concert with another couple. The concert was absolutely horrendous. We were on the 4th row so we had a bird’s eye view. His words were jumbled and the music was 99.9% scat. It was SO WEIRD. He played two of his hits. Just two. Van doesn’t acknowledge his audience. He acted like he could not wait to get off the stage. He does not acknowledge his band either. I felt bad for them but not as bad as I felt for us. It was the worst concert we have ever seen and we have seen over 150. I would not waste a dime to see this guy. Still shaking my head.

HEART BROKEN

I havent been to Fiddlers in about 20 years and was completely disappointed by the lack of organization; we came to see Taj and completely missed his set! It felt like the venue sold more tickets than there was space. Waiting in a line so long causing half the audience to miss the first set is just wrong! I arrived at 5:30 for a 7 o’clock show, entering lawn seating with absolutely no room for us. The vibe felt like crashing a party we weren’t invited to. After some of the hardest times of my life, I was more than ready to dance and have my heart cradled by Taj Mahal’s musical gift. Hope I can see Taj soon.

VAN MORRISON HOLLYWOOD BOWL

What a disappointment- have grown up listening to his music and know most of the lyrics. The atmosphere was perfect to have a much anticipated wonderful night. Van comes on and his first song sang about how he wasn’t going to sing his old songs. Now I had read the reviews and reviewed his song list but I hoped he would come through with his songs that everyone came to hear. He sang excerpts of 3 songs!! Only 3!!! And he sang them so fast like he couldn’t wait to stop singing them. I have never been so disappointed at any concert and I have seen many. Don’t waste your money! Believe all the reviews- you will be disappointed!!
