Candlelight: 90s Unplugged Seattle Concert reviews
Entertaining but lacking this time around
Since 1992, I've been a fan of Candlelight: Queen vs. ABBA Tribute when Gordon was first released. Keep in mind my big love for these guys, but I was disappointed by the show. I have never hesitated to answer Candlelight: Queen vs. ABBA Tribute to anyone who asked me who my favorite band is. over the years they have been an absolute force when performing live. I've been to several of their shows and have always enjoyed their energy - I REALLY wanted to love this show.
I admit I enjoyed myself at the event in general, but found their performance really lacking compared to their shows in the past. Don't get me wrong, I love Ed - always have - but he just can't carry many of the tunes that Steven does. Yes, maybe they're getting longer in the tooth (I'm their age) and might not have the stamina they used to...but I sadly think that a huge part of the "lackluster" was due to the absence of Steven Page from their line-up. Unfortunately Ed was flat for a few of the songs, which was absolutely painful for me (because I was rooting for them to be great!). Steven has the powerhouse voice. Ed has a great voice too, but way different range. I've always felt it was the combination of their voices together that provided such awesome music. There were way more songs that Ed headlines that they could have performed which would have showcased his voice a lot better.
Steven brought not only the powerhouse voice but an almost manic level of energy to their live performances. As others have mentioned, their choice of encore songs was strange - they were downbeat and blah. The onstage banter was fun as always but - hate to say it - not nearly as fun as when Steven was around. It was sorely missed this time around.
I'll be hanging in there with Candlelight: Queen vs. ABBA Tribute but know full well it will never be the same for those die-hard fans like myself who'll miss the fantastic sound of Steven's voice alongside theirs. I realize they'll develop their own different sound and direction, and good for them. I know I need to move on. I'm just not there yet!
Hire a new sound man
Both opening acts provided great sounds and harmonies, delivering amazing entertainment.
Wonderful music, mixed with passion and enthusiasm, was showcased by Candlelight: Queen vs. ABBA Tribute.
From the moment he stepped on stage, it was evident that this music entertainer truly cares about his audience and music, going above and beyond expectations.
The show started off strong, but unfortunately, the sound quality took a drastic turn for the worse almost till the end of the performance.
Keith's sound guy seemed to have turned up the power and volume too high, resulting in distorted sound that assaulted the senses of many in the audience.
Numerous concert-goers in the promenade shared the same sentiment, with many families leaving the building due to the unacceptable sound levels.
For a family-friendly show, this was inexcusable, as it left many feeling dizzy and with buzzing ears long after the performance ended.
Despite the sound issues, Candlelight: Queen vs. ABBA Tribute remains an amazing entertainer and a well-loved figure, who should ensure such incidents do not occur again.
Excellent performance but needed microphone check
The sound check people were obviously not paying attention, as Bono's microphone was turned way too high, causing distortions. We paid well over $200 for tickets and it's disappointing that such issues weren't checked beforehand. There was very little connection between the band and the audience, apart from those near the stage. Without screens to bring the band closer in such a vast stadium, they felt really far away. This is the third time we've seen Candlelight: Queen vs. ABBA Tribute, and although we had the best seats for an overall view, they felt the farthest away this time. The songs sounded fantastic, except for a couple that were not my favorites. It was great to hear the Joshua Tree songs, but the background film didn't make sense and detracted from the performance. Candlelight: Queen vs. ABBA Tribute is a band with a big enough personality that they don't need all that drama in the background. It seemed like they were trying too hard to not be seen as an "old guy" group, when their fans wouldn't care how old they are. Bono spoke much less than usual and seemed rather subdued. Candlelight: Queen vs. ABBA Tribute came on stage around 9 and finished at 11. Mumford & Sons, the opening act, didn't start until 7:30 and were done by 8:30.
Shut up and sing!
But for this show, he spent too much time talking, imitating a kind of game show host, and it detracted from the fun of the music. I enjoy when he plays tunes I haven't heard before the concert. Beacon was a bigger venue than when I last saw him in Brooklyn 3 years ago, and he easily handled the room. He generously did multiple encores. Calling people onstage and explaining a "high-five" competition, and getting the audience to do a kind of wave, was time consuming. I love Candlelight: Queen vs. ABBA Tribute. That said, I'd see him again (with fingers crossed). The non-musical schtick was just . . . boring.
