Kenny G started playing in the center of the Concert Hall, then walked and played in the isle. He is such a wonderful performer and even was pretty funny telling a couple of jokes.

Kenny G was awesome. Connected with us by coming in from the back. He takes my breath away! I wouldn't believe it was real if I didn't see it

Ironstone amphitheater was an excellent venue, that was awesome. Kenny G is an incredible musician, and he did a great show. George Benson is getting a little aged & I noticed his voice isn't as smooth, but still such sexy music. I thoroughly enjoyed the event.

Kenny G's performance was 'breathtaking' and his band played as one tight unit. George Benson was still awe inspiring, bu we wished he'd play more guitar solos. The venue is spacious and VERY comfortable, the staff very helpful, and the sound was great.

Kenny G is very talented but his songs all sound the same to me! 45 minutes would have been enough for him instead of 70. George Benson at 74 took a couple of songs to warm up his voice but then he was just like we saw him in 1983! Brilliant on guitar and smooth voice - he knows what he is capable of and doesn't try to sing like did in 1983 but still great. Sang most tracks from Breezin album. Great solos from fabulous musicians in both bands. Seneca is a nice small venue with all good seats.

Kenny G was super. What a musician and showman. His playing was effortless. His technique was amazing. Kenny G's band was fantastic, all superb musicians. Kenny G came out twice and signed CDs. George Benson was good, not great. He was a very good musician and performer back in the day. Now he's an older performer that still plays well, but it is evident he is living off of his past accomplishments

The music was great. The sound was great. But the light show--with flashing spotlights in our eyes for hours--ultimately overpowered all the other and ultimately made the experience unenjoyable. The entire show seemed designed for a large, flat, one-level venue (outdoors?) vs. an indoor theatre with balconies. Kenny G opened the evening by playing about 15 minutes among the fans on the main floor, while those of us in the balcony saw nothing but an empty stage. Then, the flashing spotlights had us holding our hands in front of our eyes for most of the evening. It finally got so tiresome and annoying that we left before we got to hear what I presumed George Benson would play, "On Broadway."

AFTER OVER 40 YEARS OF BUYING AND PLAYING EVERYTHING GEORGE BENSON HAS MADE, IT WAS A PLEASURE AND AN HONOR TO CATCH HIM IN PERSON. MADE THE 5 HOUR DRIVE AND STAYED AT A SUITE IN CASINO WHICH WAS FANTASTIC. I AM OLD SCHOOL DJ AND SOUND PERSON AND THE ACOUSTICS WERE EXCELLENT. KENNY G WAS VERY GOOD AND HE AND HIS BAND ARE WORLD CLASS MUSICIANS. I WAS GREATLY TOUCHED WHEN GEORGE GAVE ME HIS GUITAR PICK, HE HAS BEEN AND WILL ALWAYS BE ONE OF MY ALLTIME FAVORITES. DJRW

would have hoped for more guitar and less singing from GB. His combiningJefferson Airplane tune solo refreshingly different and unexpected for example. More of this, please. and less extended sax diddling without melody.from KG.

Great concert, but Way Too Loud. The venue was small and the audience was an older crowd, so I would have thought that the sound man would tone it down a bit, but that was not the case. My ears actually hurt after the Kenny G performance. This was a major detraction for many of us. For the entire Kenny G portion of the show, the bass was distorted due to over amplification and the piano was barely audible except for his solo. Kenny G is so good, but his long riffs showing off his mastery of the instrument got a bit long as well as loud and shrill. He had good patter and seems like a nice guy, and he sure can play. George Benson's bass player was a big hit. His percussionist had a great voice and added so much to the performance. George himself still has it, and the audience loved him.

Have been waiting a long time to see George Benson, first time I saw him was on TV. I was 14yo and i was home from school watching either the Mike Douglas show or the Diana Shore show and the show was in Hawaii. He played a couple of songs and I was hooked, the following week I stopped and got his greatest hits album. Kenny G was a added bonus.

Kenny G was outstanding and so good reaching out to all areas of the crowd. I wish George had CDs there to buy and sign. George Benson is fantastic and I m so happy that he came to Minnesota. To see and hear him was on my bucket list. The two together = 110%

Kenny proves he's the best horn player ever. Amazing riffs, incredible sound. And the most memorable moment of the night was when George Benson played a tribute to Glenn Campbell by playing "Wichitaw Lineman" - awesome song, and awesome rendition by George.

These two legends had gotten the mood set that the crowd ended up dancing. I know that it's an understatement to say that Kenny G and George Benson are two excellent musicians, but I think that they had exceeded the crowd's expectations with their showmanship and mastery. There wasn't much flare in the show, it was rather their band and both of their talent that amazed us leaving the place with such joy. I have to mention that George Benson's audio was just superb. Not quite sure if it was the mixer or something else that made the sound so smooth. Their duet was also much so refreshing.

If you haven't attended a Humphreys concert in San Diego you are missing out on a fantastic venue. Kenny G is a great musician and his melodic sounds matched the atmosphere. George B played his signature songs. Best part was when Kenny G played a song with him.

Seats are very tight at this venue but overall experience with marina in view is nice. Kenny G was just incredible and he gave his performance 110%. However, Benson one of my all time favorites lacked in his performance as he sang half of the time with no guitar in hand. Not sure if he had a medical issue with his hand or what. George seemed a bit worn out, but I still love him as a musician.

Kenny G was great. I could take or leave George Benson - which we did leave early. Thankfully Kenny G was on first - and he started right on the scheduled time - so don't be late.

Kenny G was great, the small venue allowed him to walk through the audience multiple times during the show. His shows are always excellent, but this one was split with George Benson who seems to have lost his voice, as his backup singers are covering for his lack of ability to hit the high notes. I wouldn't pay to see him again, it time to retire George.

Kenny G is a great technical musician, I have the utmost respect for him. However, when George Benson hit the stage, everything changed. George Benson is 74 years old and as he began to sing, I got chills, his voice is just as it was 25+ years ago! OMG....he was amazing! His energy, his voice, just as smooth, rich and full as ever. He did not miss a beat and kept the place rocking for almost 2 full hours; he was on his feet the whole time, we just could not get enough. If he comes to your town, run to see him, truly one of the best concerts I have ever attended. if I live to be 74 years old, I pray I have the energy and finesse of George Benson, God bless him!

Kenny G and George Benson have been a part of the soundtrack of our lives. The enthusiasm of the mostly 55-70 crowd showed that age is just a number, and that great music is how we remember life. The music of these two artists make you "feel" to your core. We often wonder how this generation's music will age, and we can't imagine it being like the fine wine of these two wonderful artists. Salute!

Let me start with the venue, they have got it down, perfect size, location, organization and they did not take advantage of a captive audience with their food and drink prices. Sodas $3.00. They accommodated every ones budget. Seeing Kenny G and his talented band was just awesome, seeing Kenny G and George Benson perform together on stage was a dream come true. George Benson was on my bucket list, first time I had ever seen him live and wow exceeded all my expectations and this is one concert I will never forget.

Kenny G show very entertaining, good variety and he's got a great sense of humor. Very fun to watch. George Benson was ok, got a little boring, but adding Kenny to a song was a good move.

Regarding the show by George Benson. I felt a little "bait and hooked" by the title of the tour. Only one song was played from Breezin' and it wasn't This Masquarade. George's voice is still strong and guitar playing still strong, no one duets with his own instrument better! The band played a lot of songs featuring him on vocals only, but I really dig his guitar playing so much more. Thumbs up for the tribute to Glen Campbell with his rendition of Wichita Lineman. Kenny G opening up the show was phenomenal. This guy can rip the sax apart and put it back together without blinking. I love that he unleashed his chops and just improvised. Such an incredible jam, the opening song in the middle of the crowd. He plays constantly and appears not to take a breath although he sneaks one through his nose and uses his checks to feed the sax while moving air from his nose to his lungs. Incredible talent. So effortless. Props to him telling us that he is a product of public school music program along with his keyboard player. They have been together 40 years. I'll admit I am not a fan of those slow Sunday Morning lite jazz standards he plays, but the live jams at his show (everyone in the band took a turn) more than made up for the mellow slow Sunday morning songs that he has to play for his fans.

A beautiful evening with perfect weather and world class music is always at the top of my list. The George Benson and Kenny G concert reminds me of many good times with family and friends decades ago. These artists may be older, but their music is timeless. It's refreshing to see such talented groups come to the Ironstone Vineyards to share the love with their devoted fans. I highly recommend the venue.
