Saw CT on 4/6 @ the historic Howard Theatre. Good/Venue Staff and the management leaves much to be desired- eat before you come.

I attend Rnb concerts frequently. Carl Thomas' voice is amazing. In my opinion, his voice has actually improved over the years. Yes, the show started late, however, I have never been to a concert that started on time. I doubt that it was his fault. He's absolutely worth the money paid. GREAT SHOW!!! I would Absolutely go again! If you go to concerts for the sound, he can sing better than most!!!!

Carl Thomas has a fabulous voice and I was looking forward to his performance. However, he was over and hour late and his set was abbreviated. I know he doesn't have many hit songs but he should figure out a way to extend his repertoire so that his fans get their monies worth. Disappointed!!

The entire show was average, Chrisette Michele was awesome, I love her performance, although she is much bigger than I thought. Case was ok, the music was too loud but you heard case singing somewhere in the back ground. I started yelling and cursing at the sound man because his mic echoed, I was taken back by that, Carl Thomas still sounds good, although I think he may have been drunk or hot from the suit he had on because he was sweating his but off on stage. He brought a little too much energy but I liked his approach though. I love summer rain and emotional so I was still happy to see him. Morris Chestnut!!!!!!! All I can say is that is a sexy brotha!!!! Jezelle I think her name was, she was funny but I don't think she brought her "A" game, I was disappointed. But you couldn't miss her with her silver shirt!!! and those shoes were so cute!!! Marvin Dixon Hilarious!!!! He was the best and I was also surprised but he had my man and I ROTFL!!!!!!

The line up was great. I wish the comedians would have had more time on stage. Marvin Dixon was an absolute fool. The musical acts were awesome. There needed to be better organization in between acts.

All of the comedy acts were absolutely hysterical. We laughed and enjoyed all of them. D. William was awesome. Chrisette Michele was wonderful and so was Carl Thomas but the show started a bit late. Also the DJ was vey good!!! But overall this show didn't appear to be very organized. They began late. The first singer was not good at all and he wasted too much time.

I have to admit that I was rather pleased with this event. The talent that came through was excellent and the performances were great too. The only thing that I wasn't pleased with were the people that attended the event. I was rather upset that people were walking in and out during performances. I thought that was rather rude. All and all, my girlfriend and I had an amazing time and look forward to the next event.

THE COMEDIANS MADE THE SHOW ENJOYABLE, EVERYTHING ELSE SEEMED AMATEUR AND GHETTO, A FEW OF THE ARTISTS HAD TO BE CALLED SEVERAL TIMES TO COME ON STAGE, AND WHEN THEY FINALLY MADE IT, PEOPLE WERE WALKING BACK & FORTH ON THE STAGE WHILE ARTIST WERE PERFORMING. MY HUSBAND AND I LEFT EARLY, ACTUALLY DURING CHRISETTE MICHELLE'S PERFORMANCE, WE GO TO A LOT OF CONCERTS, PLAYS, ETC., THIS WAS KINDA OF A DISAPPOINTING OUTING, AND I FEEL, A WASTE OF OUR HARD EARNED MONEY!!

Nice Show...Chrisette Michele and Marvin Dixon were fantastic. Not crazy about the production. Could have been a little more professional. Didn't like the people sitting on the stage and the blinking lights to tell the artist they had 5 minutes left was distracting and kind of tacky. But the performers were all very good. Case sounds great, but he too needs to be a little more professional on the stage. The cussing on stage because of the echo in the mic could have been handled better, but his voice is still amazing. Oh and Morris Chestnut....Love Hime!!! All and all a nice outing with the hubby.

I was dissapointed in the sound engineering. The quality of sound was garbage. The artists were great but the production was not professional. The setting lacked props and it did not look well put together... I expected more for the $175 I paid for in tickets.

The night got started on a bad note, the music was'nt there, so we waited over an hour. But when the show started it was well worth the wait. It was fantastic, I would enjoy more shows like that !

Truth be told, this event was a waste of time and money! Especially if you have to do any traveling with hotel accommodations. I am truly disappointed by both of these fabulous artists....this event actually is making me think very differently of them both. I have everything that both Case and Carl Thomas has done, and am very displeased that they didn't care enough of their fans (or the future of their careers, maybe the lack of their careers) to give better performances. The show was basically a venue for the local talent to perform until Case was kind enough to even enter the building. After which he only performed for 15 minutes (he came on at 9:30PM and was off the stage by 9:45PM). When he actually did perform (a total of 4 songs), he sounded great. It would have been an excellent treat to see more of that!!! After waiting another 30 mins, Carl Thomas followed suite with a 20 min show (what a big disappointment). Again, he too, sounded great once he started singing. It's really unfortunate that both of these artists gave such piss-poor performances. Even though the tickets were responsibly priced, I expected much more. If you have gotten tickets already, try to return them before you even make it to the show. For those of you that already went, try to get your money back if possible.

First of all the event was very unorganized, it didn't start on time, and it seemed like nothing was rehearsed. The problems started at the door, at 7:40pm we were still lined up outside, it was after 9pm when Case came out. he sang 3 songs and thank you Chgo, no wonder he has nothing current out. no professionalism. But on the flip side. Mr Carl Thomas came out, looking fly, took the stage and did his thang. For me he was the topper to the whole fiasco of a concert. Thank you Mr Thomas for you professionalism and style, I will definitely pay to see YOU again!!!!!!!!!

First of all, I have never been to a concert that had no band whatsoever, cds were played as background music (a good system was in place, Thank God). Case and Carl Thomas sounded great but the overall experience was a hot holy mess. The dj catered to a younger audience (a lot of hip hop music was played and Case & Carl Thomas don't fall into that genre) plus he wasn't quite sure how to transition from one track to another on his Mac. Case didn't get on stage until 9:30pm which means Carl Thomas didn't get on stage until 10:15. The venue is nice but there was no toilet paper in the ladies restroom. There were so many people visible on stage it was atrocious.

Carl Thomas was awesome. His voice was amazing and he still has it going on. I had to dig through my cd's to find his very first cd (which I truly loved from the beginning to the end). I will be looking forward to hearing his new cd whenever it comes out.

I normally don't write reviews but I felt compelled. Let me first say that Carl Thomas has some good vocals he can sang without effort and brought much energy. His band was good as well. However, the concert was running on CP time and was suppose to start at 8pm but he didn't come on stage until 9pm with a 15 min break where his band was playing while he changed his clothes backstage and the show ended right before 10pm. I've never been to a BB Kings concert where the artist changed clothes in between the show. Why change clothes? This was a small venue not a Usher concert at MSG. He performed a couple of songs and snippets of songs. With his 4 albums, I thought for sure he would've sung more but I was left "Emotional" and "I Wish" I would have stayed home.

By Carl just starting to tour I was expecting a bomb show but instead I got a short mini medley of some songs. By the time you got into one song he was onto the next. He should have sang longer overall. Very disappointed and Howard Theatre needs to step their food game up. Food was horrible and prices ridiculous.

I originally saw Carl Thomas as a part of the Bad Boy Reunion at the Verizon Center. He was great, so that made me want to see him by himself. Not to mention, his cd's are great. He is not a stand alone act. He did more talking than he did singing. Not sure Diddy would approve.

He was late. The opening act was ok but all in all it was a good show. I would have liked for him to have sang more from his catalogue.

In general a good performance; Carl Thomas' voixe sounded so good... 4 stars for sounding just like his records. I was hugely disappointed in the timing - it was close to an hour before the show started with an opening act, and then there was close to a 30 minute wait before Carl Thimas came out. When he did get on stage both sets felt rushed.

I was only familiar with a couple of his songs, but I decided to go anyway. This is my second time seeing him in concert after seeing him 17 years ago. I promise you his voice has gotten even better. So even if you don't know many of his songs, go anyway. I promise you won't be disappointed

Carl Thomas always puts on an unforgettable show. We saw him last year at another venue and this show was even better. We didnt have the best seats at BB Kings but we still enjoyed the show. Great performer.

Carl Thomas' show was fair at best. The set was too short. He didn't sing enough hits. I didn't like that there were no live backup singers. I was so disappointed. In fairness it was his first show in many many years so maybe the next show will be better

All I have to say is Carl Thomas sounds just as good as he did when he first came out. I was actually sad that the show ended so soon. I wanted more than an hour. He is phenomenal! I definitely want him to come back. He doesn't get the recognition he deserves.

His live vocals were really good. He seems to be in a good place in his life and it shows through his performance. What a talent. His set was a bit short, which I didn't like and the mics at the venue were acting up, but Carl remained professional about it. Really good show! It was worth it.

Let me first start by saying YES I most definitely would recommend this event....just somewhere else! Carl Thomas was amazing, sounded great and sang almost all of my faves. (He forgot to sing rebound) However, through no fault of his own, the microphone must have gone out at least 10 times. They tried both wireless mics and wired mics...it felt like we were at a sound check to be honest. In the middle of a song he would be mid note and then we would be jamming only to be interrupted. This man exhibited the patience of Job. We all know some artists get into "diva" mode and could have easily thrown a tantrum after the 3rd time but he remained professional and always kept it positive. I truly enjoyed Carl Thomas and appreciate his selections but did wish for more!

The artist was great. However, the venue was extremely disappointing. During the performance, the equipment failed six times within one song. The artist stopped singing early. The food was horrific. Our table ordered a variety of items off the menu and nothing came out edible. I have attended this theatre in the past and had a wonderful meal and observed a great performance. I was extremely disappointed with both the performance and the venue. L. McCray

This was supposed to be a grown and sexy night for Valentine's day. Not even close. Concert was supposed to start at eight, no one came on stage until nine. Advertised that it would be hosted by Morris Chestnut, someone else hosted until ten oclock whaen he showed up. There was supposed to be a "Live R&B Band" backing all of the singers, what we got was a DJ spinning tracks behind the singers. Very Disappointing.

The Comedians were the highlight of the show in my opinion. Chrisette Michelle was the best of all of the singers and she should have been the headliner. Carl Thomas tried to be a comedian which took away from his performance and Case tried to act like he was a thug. He complained of there being a echo when in reality the echo actually made him sound better.

The show was amazing with the exception of the host and hostess. They were dull and boring without the ability to ad lib. The audience was not entertained during the introductions nor was there the "hypeness" of bringing on the next artist/performer. Case was okay...... his comments regarding the echo in the mic should have been handled much more professionally. Everyone is not the same ghetto hood-rat that he made himself out to be. He was actually a turn off in the event. Chrisette Michele was great but, too short of a set. Though several people left trying to beat the traffic, Carl Thomas was THE show. The comedians were exceptional and one cannot ask for anything more. Keep the shows coming but scrutinize who you have host the event.

This comedy show was my first one ever and I have almost no funny bone in my body, but I cried laughing at all of the comics that took to the stage. It was a beautiful event for couples, but I took my mother for her 52nd birthday and she loved it just as well. Great job to all the R&B artist that performed as well. My only down side to this event was they started an hour late trying to wait for the audience to arrive, which shorten the first comedian performance.

This event was amazingly awful! They only used Morris Chestnut's name to boost sales! HE BARELY SAID A WORD!!! He introduced the acts with Vanessa J, but the whoe thing seemed unorganized. They did not give any background on the stars as the entered the stage. Chrisette Michele was on stage with a BOX FAN drug on stage, prompted by a stool with the assistance of a very noticeable orange electric cord. SO UN CLASSY! Next year I plan to spend Valentine's Day much better than this year!
