Zapp

What can I say...I am a little bit bias as I live and work in costa mesa so we simply ubered it and was dropped off at the entrance. we got in right away. I love this venue as it is pretty up close and personal...Bought tickets for the whole family and had a good time! Had never seen Evelyn and she was amazing! SOS band was my favorite and very special as my husband and I dated during the time from this album and was our favorite during the 80's. Can't wait for next year!

Having driven from Downtown L.A. in commuter traffic , I missed all but 2 Rose Royce songs. They sang to track, but the vocals were great, energy level great! Lakeside had great energy. I've seen them many times, but their soundperson needs to check him/her-self! Garbled and loud! As band-members went into the audience, the members on stage were at least 3-4 beats ahead! I prayed that Zapp would not have the same issue, and they did not. Zapp sounded great. My only complaint was that they did not sing "Heartbreaker". I've attended other concerts at this venue, this time however the artists seemed to rush through their acts. Perhaps there were time constraints. I still remain loyal and faithful to my funk!

We had the best time,they where great. I didn't sit down I danced al through the two shows.

Zapp: Put on a great show lots of feel great music, great musical talents, the excitement of watching them perform gave be chills. Zapp we enjoyed you all continue being Blessed

What a great nights of 80's from Zapp and a few new things mixed in. They were really fun to watch and groove to.

It was a great sold out show. It was very entertaining.

My husband has listening to Zapp since 1983, so he was excited to go see them. It COULD HAVE been a great show - they just touched on the stuff that made them popular, and wasted WAAAAAY too much time on costume changes and trying to school us on the benefits of letting Jesus into out lives. Ugh - no thanks. Did they notice we were in a casino nightclub full of smoke, booze, and gamblers? They have the talent - they just need to put it to good use.

I had an amazing time last night!! I did my best partying in my life in the early to late 1970s into the 1980s. The groups last night brought back many happy memories.

The Venue was so nice and up close. It was so much fun!!! We didn't sit down in our seats once, we danced every song. It was nice to hear Zapp, wish we could of heard them just a little longer but they had us up and movin. Their performance was great! The Ohio players took us way back and they had us up dancing as well!!! Their performance was outstanding. I will definately return to Casino of Morongo for more concerts. The staff was courteous and attentive. Everyone had such an awesom time. We live about an hour away, but the drive was worth it. Thank you so much for the wonderful evening!

This show was amazing. I only gave it four stars because there's no shelter at this amphitheatre. From Big Daddy Kane to Silk and Zapp, this show was everything.

We had a blast!!!!! It was an outdoor event, and everything went well!!!

Zapp gave a wonderful show! Very entertaining, full of energy.

J-Wonn openly complained about the sound being not up to par. I believe it was, but he has to understand that the sow must go on. I think he cracked under pressure. Through more maturity, he will realize how to deal with it in the future. Eventually, he said over the mic, could he wrap it up. Very disappointing! Tucka did a great job! That was my first time seeing him live. I have been a huge fan. Zapp was amazing!!! They stole the show. They are what you call entertainers, which every artist is not. Their dances, costumes, song selections, etc. were simply amazing!!!

I prefer the freestyle concerts in long beach. this was a homie crowd.

good times were had by all great music great venue would go again

Amazing concert all performers were awesome..had the crowd on their feet at all times.

This was the worst concert I have even attended. The sound system was absolutely awful! All of the music was very muffled and sounded terrible. Also, Evelyn Champagne King is a great singer/performer. However, she did not have her band backing her up.She was singing to a background of a band! She did have high energy. The intermission with all the music was better than the actual concert. I will not be attending this event again

The performers were great but the sound was horrible.

This year's line up was off the chains. everyone was rocking and on their feet to party. From Evelyn, to Slave to Lakeside to Zapp - it was an overall great experience. the food was delicious and the crowd blended well. not a lot of rebel rousers and everyone in our area was really cool. I didn't like the fact that they closed down some of the bathrooms at the end. it made for long lines for the women. I went to the pre-party and no one bothered to do sound check before the pre party started so that took an extra hour or so to get started. cant wait to see who will be there for next year.

Performers were great but there were issues with sound. Pre-party performances started an hour late due to sound issues and the last performer was cut off mid song. The main show sound was better but they continued to experience issues with the artists microphone volume and sometimes the singer's could not be heard clearly. But still enjoyed the performances. However, if this show is going to be repeated a better MC is needed. The host did a poor job of introducing the acts. He seemed more concerned about the hometowns and race of the audience. This could have been a great event but just seemed to lack class. With a more professional host this event has potential.

THIS AS USUAL BRINGS BACK ALOT OF MEMORIES. THE MUSIC WAS FANTASTIC AND THE CROWD WAS GREAT. THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAD WAS THE GUY DOING THE MC ON THE MIC. WHY WOULD YOU ALLOW SOME DUMB PERSON TO SPEAK AS HE DID. TALKING ABOUT THE DIFFERENT CITIES NEIGHBORHOODS THERE. ANYONE ONE WITH ANY COMMON SENSE KNOWS THIS COULD CAUSE PROBLEMS AS I BELIEVE IT DID. HE SAID HIMSELF ABOUT SOME TROUBLE IN THE BACK. YOU START TALKING ABOUT YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND OTHERS AND PEOPLE START STUFF. HE SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO SPEAK AT ANY EVENT LIKE THAT.

As far as old school funk goes, this has been my favorite concert so far. I can't wait for the next one!

Very short 2016 was more extended, bands only played very limited songs was disappointing in a way i expected more songs from sos band and zapp, not worth the hype!

Nice acts, the sound was distorted during Lakeside's act

I bought tickets to see Sinbad, but thoroughly enjoyed Zapp. I took my mother who loves Sinbad because his comedy is never vulgar, dirty or raunchy, and I feel the same. It just goes to show that you can be funny and clean.

Zapp - I liked their unapologetic dedication to the Lord and their testimony about how He has worked in their lives... Trouble is, I don't listen to their style of music, and I don't really care to... I basically attended the concert to see Sinbad, not realizing that he wasn't the headliner of the show. Sinbad - Disappointed... There were a few high points but then he started getting political (Which I've never heard him do before), and that turned me off... Again, I thought he was headlining the show, therefore I thought his set was kind of short...

Went with 3 lady friands I was the only man in our group, we had a good time Zapp and Sinbad where outstaneing we loved the show

Very entertaining, a wonderful evening. I am from Dayton Ohio and very familiar with Roger featuring Zapp. Zapp is as entertaining as they have always been continuing with the tradition started by Roger.

Sinbad performed first nd had everybody laughing. Interaction with audience made show authentic. Zapp was also great nd put on a good show. But couldn't manage to duplicate all sounds that made zapp famous in first place. Maybe its just concert quality.

From Barbara Lewis the opening act to Zapp in closing, they were all amazing!

it was an amazing time for me and my lady,,,,,everything was so clean and smooth,,,,i loved that there was different races and different age range of people,,,,everybody got along,,,,thats what old school music is all about,,,,,,,thank you soo much,, from junior g out of Newman CA,

Everyone around me was drinking alcohol and I felt very uncomfortable because I don't drink alcohol!

Concert was amazing!! Bought Tickets for my parents and they had a blast!! Music was Great and they danced all night! Just an all around awesome show was put on by all the performers, can't wait to catch Zapp/Rose Royce/Malo in concert again.

Great performance. The Zapp Band had a whole lot of energy, and the Ohio Players were still smooth as ever. Loved It!!! So glad I decided to attend. Two thumbs up!

This was my 4th or 5th time going to a Zapp concert, and as usual the performance is great! They give it their all and you can see that they love what they do and that's to make music that we love to dance to! It was my boyfriend and my first time watching the Ohio Players. I was not familiar with their music unlike my boyfriend, but I enjoyed every mintue of it. I would definitely go see them in concert again. Their music is timeless!!!

This was an outing for our 37th wedding anniversary and we have no regrets in spending our evening with these two spectacular groups. It was as though we were listening to them in stereo, they were that good. Truly these groups have not lost their touch and keeps the "70s" ALL THE WAY LIVE!!!!!

ZAPP WAS AMAZING LOVED THE SHOW AND THE MUSIC THE OHIO PLAYESR GOT FUNKY WITH A LOT OF FUNK!

Tickets said that concert would start at 8:00. Doors opened at 8:00. Concert did not start til 11:00. One hour long.
