Victor Wooten

A whole band of Wooten brothers and Sinbad! If old school funk is your jam, don't miss this show! It was worth a road trip.

Such a great concert, Vic sounded incredible! At the end of the concert he came out and we had the opportunity to meet him, take pictures and ask questions!

3 very talented musicians. Worth every penny. I hope they return soon

It was an unforgettable night of musical virtuosity and showmanship in the right degree. Victor Wooten and his band are amazing! I highly recommend!

Just when I thought Victor's show couldn't get any better he proved me wrong. His performance was unforgettable and is a must see!

At first, I thought it was going to be a pretty mellow show - you know how Vic is sometimes... But the combination of long-time groovemaster JD Blair, plus Victor Wooten and his amazing gifts, and THEN his offspring rocking the Culture Club - proved to be worth every penny. The bartender by the outdoor bar was really funny, too.

Pros: The show was AMAZING! Very entertaining and mesmorizing! Cons: Standing Room only location, show started an hour later.

Originally I thought it was going to be Victor's full band with his brothers and guests filling in, but it was just Victor Wooten and J.D. Blair. And it was amazing! I had just recently gotten out of the hospital for a serious condition and dragged myself to see these guys and I am glad I did. Victor is always the consummate musician. Just watching him grooving and talking and singing at the same time just blows me away. It was really touching (and impressive!) when Victor brought out his kids to play and sing with him. We are all going to be hearing much much more about Victor's son Adam, he is an amazing drummer for such a tender young age. Lastly, Julius Pastorius (son of late great Jaco Pastorius) came out and played drums for the finale. Great show!

Went to Victor Wooten and JD Blair and it was an amazing show. The room was packed and people were really into it. Some of the highlights were when he had his son Adam playing drums and his two daughters singing. That was really awesome and emotional. He proved he really is one of the best bass players ever.

The concert was wonderful, he played a lot of music and his bass guitar was played as only Victor Wooten can play, He played enough time to be pleasant. I will go if he comes to town again.

My wife and myself just saw 2M&1G last night and the performance was amazing or incredible or spiritual (pick an adjective). First the sound was excellent not to much volume and crisp and clear. The only time that it could have been better was when he brought 3 of his children to perform ( yes 3 of his children) and they were GREAT their ages are 6,8 and 11. A little more volume on his daughters voices. I think they got the loudest applause of the evening. Victor and JD go from easy jazz to his double thumbing to a metal type groove all in one night. Amazing!!! We will see Victor every time he comes to town.

amazing show, great "seats" no matter where you were, Victor talked with the fans after, overall great experience. Tickets were a bit too expesive though...

Victor Wooten is clearly the most innovative bass player of our time. He brought elements of funk, jazz, groove and classical music to the stage. As always, he demonstrated the versatility of the bass, hitting pretty much every note in every possible way he could, getting the bass to make every possible sound a bass could make. The first portion of the show was just Victor and the incredible JD Blair on the drums. Victor has said before that he views making music with people just like he does communication with people. That is exactly what he and JD had up on stage, a conversation. Wooten also did something I've never seen before. He brought his children out on stage and let them show off their musical talents. With two daughters who sing (the eldest of which is 11) and his son who is a stellar drummer, it was not only amazing to see a whole family share in the joy of making music but it was also a real trip to see how proud Victor was of his family as they were doing it. To end the show they brought the Lee boys back out and just lit the stage on fire. And Victor wrapped it up with "what did he say" as an encore with his son and JD Blair backing him up on the drums. It was an unforgettable show for anyone who was lucky enough to be there.

I am not a big music buff in the degree that I don't really get it if something was done in a cool way. I usually just like to listen. Well, with Victor Wooten it was hard not to notice. The man is a genius at the bass. Together with his drummer they put on a very impressive, entertaining and enjoyable show.

This was a great show put on by a master musician. Victor's prowess on the bass is mesmerizing. The man is incredible. Also enjoyed his drummer and side-man, JD Blair who is a very accomplished drummer and a very good showman as well.

Victor Wooten put on an amazing show, as usual. His virtuosity on the bass is insane. He played for 2 1/2 hours straight with incredible energy. He brought on local talent, as well as his incredibly talented children. His young son (8 years old?) was a monster on the drums, and his daughters sang beautifully. He had a bass unlike anything we've ever seen before, a six-string with extra frets. The sounds he coaxed out of the 3 basses he played were unbelievable; some pieces sounded like they were being played on a classical nylon string guitar. He and J.D., his drummer and fellow singer, were an inseparable unit. They built amazing songs by layering loops of bass, drums, and sound effects into multilayered masterpieces. J.D. also provided incredible energy and comic relief. Overall, the show was amazing; I would eagerly see him again.

It takes special talent for just a bass player and a drummer to put on a 3-hr concert all by themselves and keep the audience interested and engaged and that's exactly what Vic and JD can and did accomplish! Awesome!

Excellent performance. My first rock concert in 35 Years. My 13 yr. old son and I went together and we both were blown away by the variety, warmth and passion of the performers. The drummer was an excellent addition to Victor. His special guests, Sharkey and the kids, made it memorable occasion worth seeing again.

The show was like nothing I've ever seen!! I stood in absolute awe for 2 hours as Victor and J.D. Blair absolutely lit the stage on fire. If you want to see something amazing and be floored, this show is a must see!!

This was one of the most incredible musical concerts I have been to in years! The sound was superb. The venue was very personal although the seating was insufficient. If he comes here again I will be right there! If you ever get the opportunity to see this virtuoso perform...take it! Dr. Robinson

The level of musicianship at the show was amazing - but if you've ever seen ANY of the Wooten brothers perform, you already knew that.

Four bassists - from cello, to upright, 4 & 5 string fretted, a 6 or 7-string fretless, even a baritone horn! 2 drummers and an aweome female vocalist. Everybody doubled on something, be it a trumpet, guitar, keyboards, flute or percussion and it was an evening to remember.

Went there to see Wooten but was blown away by Jimmy Herring Band. His performance was so extraordinary, and so enlightening that I was just spent afterwards. When Victor Wooten took the stage (my reason for buying the ticket mind you) his act was somewhat stilted and gimmicky by comparison. I love his music and spirit, but I couldn't abide 4 bass players sharing the stage. I left the show after Wootens third song. Simply put, Herring upstaged Wooten. I feel sorry for any act that has to follow him. Jimmy Herring 5 stars!

The talent, showmanship, entertainment, professionalism and humbleness displayed by these incredibly gifted masters in music will blow you away. You'll learn while watching about music and life in general. An event that should not be missed by anybody!!!

Wooten and Stanely are the epitome of talented!!!!!!

Wooten and Clarke mesmerized the the sophisticated crowd and reduced all the bass aficiandos to a gigggling mass of exhiliration. My son and I strengthened our bond from soaking in the pure virtuosity and sharing this amazing experience. The event made a permanent implant on my memory banks. .

What a treat to see these guys in such an intimate venue! Victor Wooten, his two broothers and the band opened the show. Their family talent was outstanding! Then Stanley Clarke performed and showed what the master could do! Still pounding the bass at 60 years old! He brought up Lenny White, to play A Song for John with him, which was a great surprise.

Arguably the two best bassists alive put on a show not to be missed! You could hear the joy in every single note played by The Victor Wooten Band. And The Stanley Clarke Trio oozed coolness. Stanley made sounds from a stand up bass that I didn't know were possible!

Having been bored to exhaustion by Club d'Elf's continuous hour of pointless, soporific wanderings, the venerable Paradise Club was begining to feel more like purgatory, if not Hades itself. Then, like a thunderclap from Heaven, Victor Wooten descended upon the stage and instantly resurrected a musical Eden. Wooten draws a cult-like following who revere every thump from his array of Fodera Monarchs, and with good reason. He is extaordinarily talented, certainly the greatest bass player of his generation. He has all the fluid two-handed hammer-on technique of Stanley Clarke, all the slap prowess of Marcus Miller, all the finger-flying pyrotechnics of Billy Sheehan, and all the experimental groove of Jaco Pastorius. Then he adds his own unique phrasing, staccato articulation and mind-altering chops on top of it. The instrumental virtuosity, a warm, engaging stage presence and ebullient showmanship mix to create an experience that astounds, confounds, and ultimately exhilarates the soul. With his older brother Regi Wooten on guitar, drummer Derico Watson, and keyboardist Steve Weingart, they produced an ensemble sound that was intricate, funky, and syncopated yet seamless. Regi, especially, was a revelation. Victor credits him with being his music teacher, and the elder Wooten's style on guitar is equally innovative, idiosyncratic and masterful. Primarily an instrumental set, Victor took lead vocals for a few numbers, notably on a gentle exploration of humanity and divinity set to a South-African rhythm, titled "I Saw God". Those who witnessed this towering musical prodigy deliver an uplifting, spiritual event last night in Paradise are likely to feel the same way.

There isn't much to say other than lead rhythm and bass all covered by one man. That alone makes for an amazing show!

Just a really fun concert. The bass-off between Regi & Victor was BANGIN!!!! Sinbad added an extra flare of fun and laughter.

The show was absolutely awesome!! Fun engaging and good music!! It was the perfect blend of comedy and funk! A MUST see if it s in your area. Fun for all ages. A really good show!

Victor Wooten and his brothers put on an amazing show, sinbad was also hilarious.

The Victor Wooten Fun & Funk Xplosion Tour was great in ATL!!!

Better then average WEDDING BAND!!!!!.. They played 70's funk (not a bad thing) but I didn't want to see a cover band.. Wanted to see WOOTEN WAILING!!!!!!!... He played one at then end.. and that was it......

An evening of funk. But Victor Wooton and family playing funk. Fun.

They did a great job with playing some oldies with great Funk ,,,

Great show, Victor always comes through, funk jam comedy with Sinbad, very funny and great funk music Micheal Jackson, James Brown covers...Victor Wooten's show are always different I have seen him many times, solo, 3 piece, a great entertainer and just a nice guy you can tell he is for real, has heart and loves to play - Rock on Victor! can't wait till the next show...

we had a great time!!! we would go back to see then again!!!

Victor Wooten is a one of a kind performer and consummate professional. I encourage everyone to see him at least one time. I enjoyed the show.

An absolute master of his craft. This concert was a vacation for my soul. First saw him with Bela Fleck in '94 and have enjoyed his work ever since. Words can't describe what a great performer he is - what a treat! Loved his interaction with and gratitude towards the audience and live music lovers everywhere. This guy is a class act - you won't be dissapointed. Great compliment with Dennis on drums and Bob on sax - sweet, sweet sounds; I'm still chill one week later thanks to this most excellent trio.

Excellent concert, Victor killed it, one of the best performances I ve seen.

From the opening strains of Teen Town s performance to Victor Wooten s scintillating encore, the entire show was great! Even when Teen Town s bass rig toppled, the show went off with great energy and musicianship. A pleasure to see Dennis Chambers live once again and Victor Wooten is always engaging and impressive!

My first Victor Wooten concert but not my last. Music is playful and interesting. Teen Town (amazing teenage fusion jazz band)opened and Victor recognized them and gave props several times. That made me a fan.

In awe of Teen Town's opening-youngster's rocking out jazz like the pro's! Amazing talent. Then Wooten wow's us with amazing magic! Can't believe how good his team is. Really shocked at how these musicians can make such magic!

Victor Wooten is an amazing performer. He's seriously a genius on the bass guitar. His music reaches people of all ages, sexes, religions and races! He was so entertaining and the trio did a wonderful job. We'll definitely be back to see him again once he's back in town. The venue was clean and it seemed that any seat in the building was a great seat. LOVED the show.. can't wait to see him again soon.

That much talent stuffed into just 3 people is mind boggling. Each great on their own, but, with them together...WOW! If you didn t go... drive to Charlotte and catch the next show. Worth the drive!

Utterly amazing display of musicality. Totally unforgettable and an absolute must-see! Take the trip with Victor Wooten Trio as soon as you can!

If you know anything about Wooten or Chambers, you know that you're going to witness some of the world's greatest musical talent. Sure enough, they delivered (Bob on sax was phenomenal, too. He did things with looping his playing that I've never heard before. I just don't know him and Iv'e been listening to Victor and Dennis for over 12 years.). I can tell that Chambers is probably reaching the back 9 of his drumming career (Solos a little less intense, a little less "center stage"), but he still delivered a masterclass on stage. Victor, obviously, was the star of the show and he impressed. Insane solos, beautiful weaving of melodies, harmonies, and chords through Bob's sax playing, and exciting looping as well. Simply a once in a life time experience from start to finish, it's I drove 6 hours from Knoxville TN to see them. A must see!

In the small, intimate theater The Victor Wooten Trio made the entire audience feel like family and showed us their crazy talents. In most concerts that I have attended there is some point at which the band members will step up to show you their talents, and there is that 3-8 minute period where you are amazed and have to say, "Damn!" Well, with the Victor Wooten Trio, that was the entire show. Victor Wooten, Dennis Chambers and Bob Franceschini were absolutely killed it the entire time. I can't wait to see them again.

Absolutely great show. Victor Wooten is an amazing talent and entertainer.

Amazing music and energy from three extremely talented guys. Highly recommended!

Excellent, great musicians and songs out of this world

This is possibly one of the best concerts I've had the privilege of attending. These musicians are the real deal. They were one with their instruments and one with each other. Nothing can completely describe the experience. The best way to describe it was like watching a fun conversation happen between the musician and his instruments as well as his fellow musicians. All in all it was excellent!

Pyrotechnics from one of the sweetest guys in show biz. Elite level musicians plying their trade and whimsies with an amazing array of sounds and rhythms, concluding with Victor's solo tour de force. Highly recommended.

victor never disappoints, he truely is one of the best bass players today...remarkable

Victor is so talented it's clear he is definitely connected to a higher power .I would see the same concert over and over again. Personality plus!! Humble and engaging. All things good.

Excellent show in a great small venue. Sat fourth row almost center. If you like jazz or can appreciate musical talent, then this is a show for you. My wife, not a fan of jazz nor is she a musician, left saying it was one of the best shows she's ever been to. The talent of Victor Wooten, Dennis Chambers, and Bob Franceschini is unbelievable.

Victor Wooten with Dennis Chambers andBob Franceschini was an amazing show. So much talent, so much fun.

I have seen 100's of live performances. This one was in the top 3 easily. Simply blown away by how amazing Dennis Chambers is and the trading licks back and forth with Victor was awe inspiring.

If you like funky jazz bass and solid drum rhythm, then you will love Victor Wooten. The sax added an awesome lyrical sound that complemented the bass and drums.

The opening act was pretty bad but not as bad as the opening act for Robin Trower. I don't understand why you have seats on the floor level when you let people stand up in front of the stage. Very annoying. Victor Wooten and all of the players with him were top notch and amazing. This is my fourth time seeing Victor and he only gets better. I would recommend Victor Wooten to any one who really appreciates music but not at the Variety Playhouse. The act is going to have to be the most special of acts for me to ever go there again.

I never miss a victor show when he comes around. It's a different band every time he tours, and he never dissapoints. Love it!

The opening acts were just as good as the title act! Wooten is an amazing bassist and I highly recommend looking him up if you liek GOOD music. Also a more local flavor, Aqueous, hailing from North Tonawanda (Buffalo area) was up just before Wooten and man let me tell you, these guys have some amazing talent!! They are going to go far and are already touring all over the east coast! Check them out if you ever get the chance!!

Victor Wooten is the most innovative bassist today. He plays the entire orchestrated song on the bass, percussion, melody and bass line. His humility lifts him even higher in my opinion.

I had never heard of Victor Wooten, but my son has since he plays bass. While visiting DC, I noticed Victor was playing ini nearby Alexandria, VA, and decided to surprise my son. To be honest, I was the one who was surprised. Victor is incredible. He does things with a bass that I didn't realize were possible. The band was great, the event family friendly. His family was in attendance, as was James Brown's former drummer, and they all made appearances during the performance. There were also some kids in the audience that had attended a recent music camp that Victor took part in, and they played with the band for a few minutes. Victor's bassist was a local, so he was in the spotlight for a few minutes. All of these special moments were great, but it would have been just as special without any of that. The band was wonderful, and Victor was the star. All in all an amazing night. Also, they serve food.

It was good to meet and hear Victor. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at this concert. Victor Wooten and his band are incredible musicians. His family is gifted too - We enjoyed hearing his daughters sing with him. This is probably one the best concerts I have been to in years. We got more than our money's worth. We were entertained. We were bedazzled. We were inspired. It was superb.

He did a great job, he's a excellent bassist I could have done without the children coming up but I know its a good thing for them

Amazing. Intimate venue, great performance and the music never stopped. The variety of songs and styles made the time fly by. Excellent

The entire evening of music was engaging and fun. Smiled the whole time ! Victor is warm and interacted with the audience , even calling some students onto the stage to play with them. His daughters sang a time or two and their voices are beautiful. His talent on the bass us unrivaled and he played one very long ( hours) set. Can't wait to see him again.

Victor Wooten is a magician, a virtuoso, who nonetheless makes his music incredibly accessible. His brother is awesome, and together they are terrifically entertaining! The band is incredibly tight. Add a fabulous drummer, killer keys, and Anthony on bass behind Victor, and the "joint was really jumpin'"!!! Add to the show his generous willingness to have young virtuosos from his music camp come up on stage and play was absolutely a thrill. And then there were those points in the show when he had his daugheters join him on stage. What beautiful children...and their voices - angelic! I also had the distinct pleasure of spending the afternoon with Victor and Anthony at Victor's workshop at Island Music. Victor invites you into music, rather than erecting walls to keep you out. His generous spirit fills his music and any room in which he appears. And you feel you should call him Mr. Wooten, but his soul says "Just call me Victa." To fill an audience with wonder is the rarest form of artistry, and Victor does it with grace.

I was only expecting about 1-1.5 hours of a show. There was no warm up band, and they gave us about 2.5 hours of jaw dropping great music! The sound was great. Not too loud, not too soft, and well eq'd. Victor invited some of the guests he knew as well as joss family members to come on stage to sing and play, and they did. They all did a great job.

There are three things everyone should see before they die - The Grand Canyon, Niagara Falls, and a Victor Wooten concert. He is amazing. Just telling someone about the most amazing moments in the show would take almost as long as the show itself - every moment is incredible. Take Joe Satriani, give him a sense of humor, a positive, family- and friend-based attitutde, and have him simultaneously play his own bassline and guitar licks, and you begin to get near what Victor does.

ticket didn't say there was an opening band and show started 90-min late, by which time I had to leave. didn't hear one note.

Awesome to have the family together. Great performance.

Easily the most talented musical family ever to walk earth,, shame more people don't no them, but that's the western world - all caught up in nonsense instead of seeing real gold

The Performance was the best! Nice musician and nice guys. But I rather be sitting next time! Ticketmaster said that we had seat numbers, but when we arrived it was a standing Show. Not very nice to not make that clear for customers. Thanks.

Amazing show from the best bassist in the world and his brothers. Opener was fantastic as well

From the moment Joe came out on stage to bring on his brothers, it was high energy and unbelievable talent. The energy remained throughout the entire show. The musicianship that was on that stage was and is unbelievable. Starting with Regi and going right down the line. The grooves, the soul, the melody. They are such nice, down to earth guys as well. Mind boggling. Their shows are made up of all different kinds of people: Female, male, tall, short, large,small, black, white, Asian, young, old, middle of the road, musicians and non-musicians alike. A beautiful night.....

I saw the famous bass player Victor Wooten playing with his 3 brothers at Birchmere last night. His brother Roy (Futureman) on drums was incredible his base was set horizontally and he could use it as a Tomtom as well as with the pedal from underneath the Highhat Cymbal central with a ride and two crash and on one side and two or three small cymbals and wood block and metal pot on the other with all the other drums at the same level it seemed like a very smart and comfortable setup. The guitar Player is the oldest brother who introduced and taught the others music his leads were like Jeff Beck and his rhythm was like Jazzy cords like Bob Weir does while others solo. The Keyboard player was brother Joe. Joe also sang the most and had composed the most R&B type songs, They were all fantastic players and Joe blew me away tickling the keys and singing lead all night. They played a lot of funk and soul and talked about there musical history. It was a great show and I was happy that my son Daniel and his friend were able to share the experience with me.

Outstanding show good to see the brothers playing together if only for a short time... Hope they deside to do it again and often...

Man what a show; I am a student of the bass and the way Victor and crew played it was truly incredible; definitely a must see for any true fan.

...then you should! I enjoyed him and the entire band-so talented

What a musician! He's been called the Michael Jordan of bass players and this tagline is well earned. His band was also gifted and most played multiple instruments - true musicians. There were also some wonderful guest appearances, including two of his four children, his older brother Regi and a young blind bass player. The other real musical treat was three other bass players, four with Victor - yes I said four bass players. Steve Bailey, Berklee College of Music Bass Chair was excellent on his 6 string fretless bass (crazy hard to play). The female vocalist was also outstanding along with the two drummers. Victor and his wonderful band played for almost 3 hours and I could have listened for 3 more. l would highly recommend his show if it comes to your city, a must see!

Amazing! Vic and friends were stunning. Victor has assembled some of the most talented and accomplished musicians in the world for this tour. They are all very versatile ! What a GREAT SHOW!

I've always seen clips of Wooten on youtube, but to see him live... that is a whole different level. If you are a fan, you wont be disappointed.

Four amazing bassists, two crazy drummers, and a vocalist who was on point the whole night. This concert was indescribably good!

Wooten is one of those rare jazz artists who knows how to entertain. The thinking that goes behind his shows is amazing. He has the best of breed play for him - he had 3 world class bass guitarists play on stage and 2 drummers. He bought his kids out and they ripped it too. Every guy on the stage had to entertain and show their skills. It is worth every single dollar I spent. Even my hispanic friend who grudgingly came along to a non-salsa show ( and was excited by the samba/salsa number the band played) was very impressed with the entertainment level. Victor used several people he had met during his bass clinics. And many of his students inspire truly because they had to overcome huge challenges like being blind for instance. VW is not only a good musician but a deep human being too.

Victor Wooten is a phenomenal musician. 4 Base Guitars, 2 Sets of Drums, and a Lead Singer in this particular Wooten lineup. Each of the band members also played various other instruments throughout the show. And how Wooten can play 2 songs at once, solo, on his base is beyond me. If you've never seen Victor Wooten live, do it. Wow! What a show.

This was the last night of the one year tour. The audience was first treated to an opener with Wooten on the electric cello- YoYo- Yo'Mama! Then watching four- count them- four of the world's best bassists play with two drumsets for the first long piece, featuring Krystal Peterson who has a fantastic set of pipes I knew that we were in for a memorable treat. I am 55, male, and brought several of my 20 something family members and an older sister and note on their facebook and media postings that they all felt this was one of the best concerts they have ever seen. Whenever you have a chance to see Victor Wooten, take it.

This was one of the best concerts I have attended. Four bass players on stage, all serious music school guys, played multiple instruments. Female vocalist, krystal Peterson was incredible. One of the most soulful concerts ever. He is a must see!

It was an incredible show. The talent on the stage that night was brilliant.

Just another freakin' awesome show from Victor, Anthony, Derico, J.D., Krystal, Dave and Steve. It was great to see the "theacha" Regi Wooten...and Luke Putney just rocked it!!!

I was shocked and utterly disappointed that Victor chose this ensemble/format as his vehicle of expression. However, since he had, they could have at least injected some musicality/taste. It didn't even groove, which I guess was the main point of having 4 bass players and 2 drummers(for goodness sake). The concert was a hot mess starting off with an inordinately long pre-recorded "classical" introduction that could have been composed by a first grader. My wife and I are both trained musicians and the music that was being produced at this concert was obviously not intended for anyone with "ears". Victor demonstrated that although he is an unbelievable technician, he does not merit being mentioned in the same sentence as Stanley Clarke, Jaco Pastorius, etc. due to his conceptual immaturity. I had never walked out of a concert until having walked out of this one. BIG THUMBS DOWN!

I'm a bass player from way back and Victor has manage to bring the Bass instrument to the forefront. I had to look close because I was amazed at the sounds he was able to produce from the bass guitar. The Musicians with him were amazing also. So much talent on stage just blew me away! The female vocalist had such a wide range . Having this at the Newport really gave me a personable experience as I was able to be so close. If your in to music or a musician , I would highly recommend this concert. Well worth the price!

Victor Wooten's concert at the Newport 4.24.13 was an outstanding celebration of The Bass. Each musician is multitalented. Their interaction and improvisation was truley an honor to witness. No Egos, just a great group of people doing what they love to do..Victor has surrounded himself with the best in the world for this tour event. It was great to see OSU Prof Wheeler take the stage and jam. The Tone is The Thing!

Quite possibly the best show I have ever seen, and I've seen a LOT of shows.

Victor Wooten is an incredible artist who surrounds himself with incredible artists. This performance was unforgettable. Victor played 3 different electric basses, an upright bass, a cello, and a euphonium (I think). The guest performance by Shawn "Thunder" Wallace, an Ohio State saxophone professor (who is apparently just as adept at playing the flute), was great. The vocals by Krystal Peterson were beautiful. Overall, just an excellent evening.

The band Victor has put together is superb. Accomplished musician, everyone of which took the spotlight at one time or another for a solo. Almost everyone in the band played at least three different instruments during course of the show.

I have ventured my share of concerts and maybe a few other peoples as well so by no means am i easily overwhelmed. first off there is no fluff! There are no openers or space takers. Thus what you get is a full near overdose of the Wooten Experience. you would expect someone with such a following to sit out front and overlook the rest of the band, so not the case. Crystal melts you with her voice from the jump and at some time or another (and not just once like with usual introductions) everyone on stage goes in hard! found out about the concert last minute and dropped everything to be in attendance, you should do the same.
