Tom Petty

The opening act was great, the room was great, the staff was great, the pizza was great! Mary Chapin Carpenter was phenomenal! The only I issue had was in the photo, luckily I chose an aisle seat and I could lean. This is NO FAULT of the venue's and didn't prevent me from enjoying the show. It's just one of life's little curve balls!

The entire concert was open standing space, so getting there early was a huge plus! Solid opening performances and Carly was terrific! Would definitely recommend to a fried and am sad I was only able to make it to one of her shows for this tour. The venue was also really nice and well taken care of.

Great show....my grandson loved it! Worth the expense!

Wynonna has not lost a beat she is as good now as she was 25 yrs ago. The show is Amazing. High energy and the Wynonna Attitude should not be missed

What another amazing performance at Hoyt Sherman Tuesday, June 20th. I was a little disappointed that it wasn't sold out for his first ever performance in Iowa. However the crowd that was there caught an evening of pure music. I was only familiar with his early material, which he did performe classic songs like Sunday paper and Time (which rocked). He played a generous numbers from his latest CD called Fast Forward (which I bought and have listened to it a number of times through, it awesome and you should buy it). Joe was very appreciative of the size of the crowd and was just a very cool show overall. If you see Joe Jackson coming to your city, buy a ticket and enjoy the show.

She KILLED at the WHCD! I can't wait to see her in person!

nice performance. jay rock looking hungry. i like his voice and rapping skills. who's the next big LA rapper??? jay rock. he even had guest artists: kendrick lamar and glasses malone.

It was awesome ! The set up , the crowd, the weather. It was perfect !

Thank you for such an amazing show! I've wanted and waited for 13 years since the first ever episode of MINDFREAK to see you in person and my dream finally came true! I couldn't be happier and Ticketmaster made it all possible!

Overall, my young daughter and I enjoyed the ballet and the theatre. I think the Dolby theatre location in Hollywood made the ballet a bit more magical and fun. The afternoon show was filled with young girls and their parents, wearing pretty holiday dresses and tiaras. There's a photo spot (with Santa) in the lobby where they'll take your photos (for free) before the show and during the break, as well as a table selling nutcracker dolls and pretty tiaras. Our tickets were in the second row, which was great for seeing everything close up (sometimes too close!) but there were heads directly in our way in the front row, so we still had to move around the see parts of stage. Next time, I'd recommend getting front row seats in the next section if you want the best unobstructed view. There was no live orchestra, so I felt half the performance was missing, since I think the orchestra and the dancers should work together as a team. Hopefully, someday soon, this ballet company will be able to afford live musicians to play with them. The recorded music was nice, though, and never overwhelmed the dancers. I'd expect good sound in a Dolby theatre. The dancers themselves were professional and looked like they were having fun, even with a few minor stumbles. I wondered why they didn't use the Sugar Plum Fairy in this ballet? She's my favorite character, after Clara, so I really missed that. Since we were sitting so close, I had a good view of the costumes and set. I liked the simple, elegant look of everything. My daughter liked the mouse costumes. I was a tiny bit disappointed with the final grand pas de deus. I preferred the Clara dancer over the "Sugar Plum Fairy" dancer, but that's just my preference. I thought Clara's dancing was softer and more feminine. The Drosselmeyer character was awesome and fun--he really commanded the stage whenever he was on it. It was also fun to watch him carry the various human-sized toys around the stage. Overall, the performance was enjoyable. I would recommend it to families with girls who love the ballet. I look forward to seeing how this ballet company grows and improves over the years.
