FIVE STAR SHOW

My only criticism is that Josh Groban did not sing “The Prayer” and that he chatted a bit too much. To take a star away however, would be overly critical. Josh Groban’s voice was as strong and beautiful as expected. The playlist included favorites as well as some newer songs. Being an Idina Manzel fan made this concert even more enjoyable. The individual musicians , the orchestra and chorus members were all so talented. The volume in MSG was loud but I preferred that rather than listening to fans singing over the performers. I hope I have the opportunity to see Josh Groban again.

SISTER'S WATCHING

I took my sister to this concert and we are seniors. I haven't been to one in many years and this was just wonderful. It is so nice to see a concert that brings together people of different ages. Mr. Groban and Ms. Menzel where both wonderful. She was a lovely great first act and loved her strong beautiful voice. Mr. Groban was wonderful. He is so talented with his singing, playing the piano and engaging the audience. I was so happy to see the great pictures of young people working in the arts with the encouragement of his charity. Keep doing wonderful things Mr. Groban and Ms. Menzel! Thanks for a lovely concert!

THE FORUM - JOSH AND IDINA

I was not a fan of Josh Groban before his show at the Forum, but my wife is, and it was on her bucket list of "things to do before she dies," (we are in our early 40s, so hopefully that is a long time off). I was completely blown away by the show. Yes, it was louder than I expected, maybe a bit loud for comfort at times, but wow, it was otherwise breathtaking. Idina is a great singer, funny, has quite a presence. Josh even more so. Without a lot of showy lights, fog, and effects, the focus was on the sound, and the singing, and Groban is, in my opinion, technically flawless in his articulation and vocal production. I came away a fan, and I think thats a sign of an awesome production. I only wish we could go to more shows on his tour, it was money well spent!! Or, I wish he would just simply come to Canada!!

OCT 27TH AT THE FORUM

Dear Josh, we look forward to your concert on 10/27. We love your voice. Could you please sing as many as you possibly can your old-time most popular top hits and movie sound-track songs? Wonderful songs like Broken Vow, Remember, Un Giorno Per Noi, Vincent, Alejate, To Where You Are, canto Alla Vita, Mi Mancherai etc. Thanks so much!

JOSH GROBAN CONCERT

First time going to a Josh Groban concert. Went with my wife and daughter. Manzel was good but felt her prescient was too long. Thirty minutes would have sufficed.not an hour. Her band did play to loud as previously remarked. By the time Josh Groban came on at 9:30 l was somewhat worn out. Lastly, I also concur with previous comment that he should of song more of his notable songs.

JOSH GROBAN AND INDIANA MENZEL

Great concert! Indina’s volume could have been cranked down 20%! The highlight for us was when Josh walked across the arena floor, hand slapping concert goers, then performing on a small stage at our end of the arena, section 115, row 30, seats 1,2. Josh gives a great live performance and has a terrific sense of humor! His performance brought back memories of Neil Diamond in the 80’s(we saw him 4 times!!!! We would highly recommend Josh’s concerts to everyone age 16 and up! Great nearby restaurant 1331 Lamar, Massas’ South Coast Grill, super food!

GROBAN/MANZEL

Great concert . Both performers related well to the audience and sang a few of their notable hits. Manzel’s band was very loud and sometimes drowned out her beautiful voice. Groban’s band much better matched his voice which allowed you to hear more clearly. Maybe 5th row was too close but but I think Manzel could have benefited from a bit Lower volume on the instruments that would have allowed us to better appreciate her beautiful voice. .

DITCH IDINA

We were not fans of Menzel at all. It was very painful to listen to her for a whole hour and a half. Often times not even being able to make out her words. Was she drunk? We and some others felt very disappointed that Josh had her on for so long. We felt we paid to see him at his prices but were stuck with her. When Josh finally came on he was (as always) spectacular! Please Josh find someone that compliments you not ruins the show.

DISAPPOINTED

I understand the Tour was to promote his new album, but never should have been his entire set list! Took until the encore (@ 11:00!) to hear three of his more popular favorites. Idina was show-stopping but played too long. Groban went on way too late (9:30). They need to understand that they attract an “older” audience. They need to: - Start @ 7:30, at least! - Cut Idina by 15 mins but incorporate her more w/Josh (hello, The Prayer?!) - Start Groban @ 8:30 - Cut out a lot of the “chatter”, esp political - Decrease selectons from new album & add in the more traditional/popular ones. Glad I saw the concert, but don’t think I’ll attend another one.

JOSH WAS GREAT BUT BOTH PERFORMERS WERE TOO LOUD

Due to the high volume at least 25% too high it was hard to enjoy the show. Josh’s performance was better as Idinas vocals were ear piercing at times.

A FOUL PERFORMANCE FROM JOSH GROBAN WITH IDINA MENZEL

Perhaps the "Bridges" tour is intended for fans to bridge the gap between themselves and Josh Groban. While I am far from a prude, I was appalled when Josh Groban with Idina Menzel repeatedly used profanity in their lackluster concert at Little Ceaser's arena on November 7th. I used to be a Josh Groban fan; although, I have crossed over the "bridge" and no longer see the appeal.

BAD

Paid top dollar to sit in front while a number of songs, including a duet with Idina Menzel and ‘Bring Him Home ‘, were performed in the back! Extremely disappointed.

JOSH GROBAN AND IDINA

Way too loud. So loud you could not understand the singers. We left after waiting for Groban for over an hour and a half. Sad because we really like his music. I know it was not the venue as Andrea's Bocelli also at United Center was wonderful.
