    Also with Costello, you are getting a world class back up band with 2 original Attractions, Steve Nieve and Pete Thomas, plus famous session bass man Davey Faragher and Charley Sexton who helped make Dylan's late career albums sound so great.

    I appreciate your honest review. Daryl is not the same singer as he was during - Live from Daryl's House - best 10+ years ago. Age has firmly taken a hold of his once pristine voice. Also detest his legal blocking of John Oates's desire to cash out. I believe he'll regret it one day.

    I was there and you can not do this review without mentioning the horrible, horrible sound system or techies or whatever was wrong Sunday night! Daryl had every right to complain about it. He said, "I sound like I'm singing in a box!" He's been touring for 40 years! He knows when something is off! I give him credit for stopping and trying to fix it. Poor Elvis sounded like he was singing in a bubble, underwater, singing backwards! I go to 5-10 concerts a year depending on if my favorites are touring. And I have never, heard sound this bad! The venue sucks, in plain English! One more thing, Daryl's band is also awesome!

    There are seated shows and standing shows. These gents appeal to a seated crowd in a venue like that. I did what you did when I saw pre-Covid Costello and the Imposters. Got up and walked around. But absolutely enjoyed every note in the show. Would you be dancing around if it was Frank Sinatra? Probably not. Same with these guys at this point. Basically, relax and enjoy the performance. They're probably just getting started on the tour. Plus, they should sing The Only Flame in Town together.

      100% agree! I went and saw Dead and Co last month and someone was upset that the audience around them was standing the whole time (aside from Drums) and I tried to explain to them that there are different kinds of concerts, some standing, some sitting, that was a standing show, for sure. Part of it has to do with the venue, and part has to do with the act. This, at this point, is a sitting show. Also, how often do they get the opportunity to sing that song together and why are they not taking advantage of it?!

  • @robf6105

    That sounds like a great Costello setlist. I saw him live once. He was going through a "country phase." He did country versions of his hits. I hated it. I would have loved hearing him do his well-known songs in the traditional arrangements. Many of the songs that you mentioned were big hits.

  • @Bopsterjazz
    @Bopsterjazz Před 6 dny +3

    Agree, I was in the 300s and as a musician myself, I noticed Elvis wasn’t keeping tempo with the band or vice versa, and then Hall, I think just needed to do an actual sound check because he was right, it was box-y, and his vocals should have been turned up, so that his voice doesn’t get drowned out by the band. But there was miscommunication and I think the audio guy kept just turning up the whole band? Idk. However, he should have gone about it by stopping it early to do a proper check, instead of just being mad about it the whole time. I think Hall screaming at the audio people the whole time kinda killed the mood. Costello was definitely the more enjoyable part of the show even with timing issues.

      Cannot agree with that. I saw both in their prime. Hall was an amazing vocalist and Oates was excellent as well. Both wrote great pop songs and had great bands. GE Smith played guitar for them at one time. Costello is also an amazing songwriter and musician. How they are now, I have no clue-I am talking 70’s thru 90’s. I have seen Oates a couple of times in Nashville recently and he is still a good performer. Obviously, everyone has their own opinion but I have seen a lot of acts from the Ramones to the Stones in their prime and these 2 were standouts in their prime

    It’s not Ticketmaster. The ticket price goes to the artist. The fees are partially Ticketmaster, the promoter, and the venue. Nobody is doing concerts for the good of the public. It’s a business. I’ve seen both Elvis and Daryl many times. This is a bad pairing even though they recorded a song together back in the day.

  • @kikivitt
    @kikivitt Před 6 dny +4

    @JoeInVegasReviews Thanks for this recap! I was there in the third row and while I agree with much of what you are saying I do think the staff at Fountainbleu are largely to blame for the crowd not moving. Every time we all stood up to dance they forced us to sit back down - even at the very end when people moved up to the stage for You Make My Dreams Come True they bullied us back to our seats. One drunk older man started aggressively yelling at people to sit down and started jabbing his elbows and stomped on me on purpose because I stood up to dance in my seat (along with many others). Security was more concerned with stopping people from having fun than stopping that man from swearing and yelling at show-goers. It was appalling. I would have gotten help from security to have him ejected but I didn’t want to miss any of Daryl’s set after paying so much and traveling so far to see him. I saw this same show in Bend, Oregon, a few weeks ago and it was incredible. The guys are tired from playing on the road for a month straight, too, so it all combined for a challenging show. Elvis is great but agree his set was too long and many of us wanted more Daryl. Those of us who love his music weren’t there to hear his 1983 voice, but to see the legend we grew up adoring and whose music is the stuff of our entire lives. He can still do an amazing show, this just wasn’t the one. Finally - his new album “D” is soooo great! I’ve chatted with many other fans and we all love it. It’s catchy and upbeat and then tragic and powerful - takes you on a whole journey through his hard times the last five or so years. I can’t comment on Elvis, other than agreeing he’s cool, because I’m the OG Daryl enthusiast. And for that reason alone I had a fantastic time - even getting yelled at and stomped on. Oh and about Daryl’s reputation for being cantankerous on stage - well, he seems to do so mostly when people aren’t doing their jobs. He’s always been a no bullshit kinda guy, so when people mess up he calls them on it. I get that. He can be salty but there’s usually a reason and he’s usually right, then media misinterprets it. Daryl, I can’t say no to you! Thanks for the review - I hope the angry drunk man is met with karma for ruining a special night, and that I’ll have a chance to see Daryl play again in a better venue - for now my money’s run dry and I’m just going to play my new “D” album and smile!

    A solo artist needs to be center stage most of the time. At a concert on the tour with Todd Rundgrun, Daryl left center stage and moved to the piano on the far right for 2-3 long songs. Only a quarter of the audience could see him. I could not in row 3 center left. The audience wasn't mean, but they started talking to each other. The concert was saved when he moved back to the keyboard for the rest of the songs, and then Todd joined for the duets.

    Hey Joe, love your reviews. I usually give your reviews a 95/100, but I may have to give you an 80 on this one. 😂 I was at the show and was in the right floor section (104) on the inner aisle 12 rows back. I agree about the flat floor and the chairs they brought from their conference room being awful. I was also there the night before to see Third Eye Blind. The floor was GA SRO. The sound on both nights was pretty terrible. For reference, this was my 31st concert this year and I’ve seen over 300 all over the world and this was some of the worst sound. Echoey and lacked punch. As Daryl said “like I’m in a box.” The sound was awful for both bands 3eb and yellow card on Saturday and both on Sunday. Daryl’s yelling would have usually made me uncomfortable, but I was glad he did it because the venue needs to address it. Every time he yelled at his tech, I replied “it’s the venue.” I actually thought Elvis was good, I liked the vibe. However, there was a large group near me who weren’t there to see him and kept talking over the music. There was a lot of sitting during both performances. From my vantage point, security only intervened when people from the back of the floor rushed the stage and stayed up there for a long period. If I purchased front row and had someone from the back come stand in front of me, I’d want them moved back to their seats. I agree that Daryl was a bit more lounge-y and not as energetic. I did like his band. Despite what I said up top, I’d say your scores are fair. Maybe 70s for each guy, but the terrible sound of the venue definitely affected it. Let me add that we were also distracted by the incidents with the people up front (I’m assuming it’s the one with the other long comment here) so much so that we bailed before he came out for the encore. I’ve only done that a handful of times in my life. Rock on, keep up the great reviews and maybe I’ll see you at an upcoming Vegas show.

For what they charge for shows these days I just feel the bar should be higher for the artists .

    Thanks for the review.. I was at the show also, first time at Fountainbleu as well. Sat in the 300 section. I'm a huge Elvis fan, and have seen him many times throughout his career. The sound was way off.
    , it seemed like they had timing issues, or monitor issues, and just not a typical Elvis show. he has like 400 songs or something to play from and seemed to mix them up pretty well but I was disappointed overall. I also like Hall and Oates and it was the first time seeing Daryl Hall, and his voice sounded week, and his attitude was cocky, but hey he is 77 years old, so the voice is understandable and the combo of the bad sound and his weak voice made too much to bare and we left early. I won't knock myself out to go back to the Fountainbleu, or Daryll Hall.. Elvis gets a pass because he usually knocks it out of the park, for me anyway.

      I don't know all the details But I highly doubt He tried to go behind Is back to sell. There's no reason for that unless they were having some bad blood from before. Technically Oates owns his own publishing and can do whatever he wants with it. But Common Sense tells me if he was trying to sell it without Hall they had other issues going on

      @@JoeInVegasReviews Oates even admitted it. They had an agreement that nobody could sell their share without the other's approval and John attempted to do so without ever engaging Hall about it. Oates admitted this , he felt Daryl had been so very vocal about wanting to be a solo artist that John said OK watch this. That is why the judge approved the restraining order blocking the sale, it was not even debatable that Oates could not do it without Hall's approval. I like both guys but John let his emotions get the better of him, understandably after years of hearing Daryl halfway slight him in interviews. But John held those feelings in, to himself, and then out of nowhere attempted the sale, leaving Daryl to feel like WTF? Stupid move on both parts because all it does is hurt the value of the catalog, Oates played himself here IMO.

    Thanks for your honest review . Btw a lot of Elvis Costello setlist were hits over here in England .
    So sorry to hear that Daryl Hall was off key both with his vocals and connection with the audience especially when he was playing such massive hits . I’ve just received my copy of Daryl’s new album and I think it already will win the award for the worst album sleeve of the year with just a large copy of his signature with a Capital D .
    It just looks naff plus whose idea was it to put line after line of Daryl’s name against an instrument he played in the album instead of grouping the instruments together ?
    I’ve never seen this on ANY other album and I own thousands of them .
    Too early for me to leave my review on the music on this new solo album by Daryl but I was impressed enough by the music videos from said album on CZcams to buy it
    I think it’s terribly sad to see Daryl taking chunks out of his very long standing partner John Oates and it would seem theres no way back for them getting back together again .
    Any finally …..I was shocked but not surprised with how much those tickets were for this concert in Las Vegas . America
    We have the same problems here in UK especially for large venues like The 02 and Wembley Stadium in London and yet I’ve just seen Bryan Adams at Dreamland , Margate ,Kent for under £60 and was in touching distance of him .
    Btw Bryan Adams DID make a connection with the audience even when it was raining and both he and his brilliant guitarist Keith Scott came out on the ramp and front of stage plenty of times and didn’t let the weather affect them .
    Plus I’ve never seen so many guitar plectrums thrown into the crowd as was at this excellent fun entertaining concert .
    So in short ….if you get the chance to see Bryan Adams in concert then take it as you won’t be disappointed plus his voice is just as good as EVER !

    So tired of hearing about Daryl yelling at the sound people. Maybe if the idiots did their job correctly, he wouldn't be mad. He wants the perfection that he & his audience deserves. If someone can't do a job they need to go. Unfortunately for Daryl this keeps happening live. I know that would put me in a horrible place to keep singing & performing. As far as the audience not getting up & dancing or being more animated-when you have the security constantly telling you to sit down, well that is the problem. It was the theatre seating arrangement, not Daryl's fault they weren't up. And bringing up the current suit Daryl is in is all Oates fault. You don't breach a legal contract. What does that have to do with his tour? Nothing, this is your opinion but your feeding into a character attack with something entirely different to justify your video................

Even though Oates proved several times he could write songs that would make hits, he claims he’s all the talent in the duo… I saw Stevie Nicks and Peter Gabriel live. They both were amazing. They are willing to put out the cash to make sure fans see a great show. Daryl just wants to go out to feed his enormous ego and line his pockets, so he can add more rooms to his stupid mansion.

    Joe you are right about Ticketmaster charging unreasonable fees and stealing from everyone. We need leadership that is not for sale to mobsters and criminals who they serve above their constituency, Vegas is also a terrible rip off because the money you bring to Vegas stays in Vegas. You should see musical performances where the music matters - Vegas ain't that place. Unfortunately neither is this CZcams channel or your ability to adequately write a coherent music review with any insight or understanding of the artists or their repertoires, of which you are wholly unprepared to comment. Stick to the artists you know, understand well, and prefer. Skip the rest when it comes to expressing your personal opinions to the devoted fans who know very well is not an honest review, its an opinion, we all have one, and you're the only one who cares about yours. It simply does not matter to actual fans in the audience.💣
