Phenomenal show! We saw the Twlight movie with live musicians and singer, and it was great. The setting was beautiful, hundreds of candles amidst the players under the screen. And at the end they lowered lights to mimic the last romantic scene. Fun crowd, lots of energy.
I had a great time at the Ledesi Marsha Ambrosius concert. Lena was our usher and she was so kind and patient while assisting us to our seats as well as answering questions we had. There was no line. We literally just walked up and was welcomed in to have our tickets validated. Everything was so well organized. I love attending events at the Ovens Auditorium.
Went to see the bald brothers and what a time was had?! It was a nice place, the staff was friendly and very helpful if there were any questions. The drinks were fairly priced, and it didn't take long to be helped when ordering anything. The parking area was packed but fairly organized getting out surprisingly. The seats were more comfortable than I expected as well. Look forward to going back to future events.
Went for an orchestra concert. Was excellently performed. Sadly, like all concerts or events these days, the volume was too loud overall and at times, much too loud. There's quite a bit of mark up on food and drinks, and frequent wooowing and cheering of the crowd was a bit much, but I can't fault the venue or orchestra for the crowd's behavior, it still was very enjoyable and a great time.
Oh I loved my time here. Singing Melody was great. Sir Beres Hammond was outstanding. I thoroughly enjoyed my time there.
