I which I had known he wasn't going to show until 11:20pm for an 8:00pm show and I would not have shown up until then. Plus he performed barely an hour! His son, Boopy (or whatever), was unnecessary as were the Adamses (although the latter were great eye candy!). And the worse part was his signature song, "U Can't Touch This" was done while the crowd was filled with random audience members!!?? I'm glad I paid very little for the show because that's what I got!!

I had a great time! I try to see Boys II Men at least once a year! They always put on a GREAT show! I truly miss substantive music! Every one of thier songs has meant something to me these past 20 years! These guys are the real deal! No gimmicks, no tricks,just true showmanship and a genuine love for their craft! MC Hammer went hard! I'm 40 now and I didn't believe I still had a few moves left! I had a GREAT time!

I was pretty excited to see Hammer, Tone Loc & Coolio. Tone Loc & Coolio were really good! I must say that I was a little disappointed that Hammer wasn't live. Hammer played "Can't Touch This" last & because of a noise ordinance, the song got cut off so we didn't get to hear the whole song. He had 2 guys break dance to "The Adams Groove" but he didn't rap it, it was just the music playing. I could have done with out that if we could have heard all of "Can't Touch This". It was a good show for the price & everyone seemed to have a good time.

This was the BEST concert I've seen in a very long time. It was fun, energetic and a walk down memory lane. I loved how he featured his sons, nephew and other singers. The dancers where AMAZING. A must see.

I am the male part of the couple, a bit older than my fiance' and Hammer was more my era. However, my fiance' had a ball, as well as I. Hammer did not miss a beat. The concert was exceptional and everything expected of a Hammer performance, even at this stage in our lives. I truly recommend seeing Hammer if you get the chance.

Growing up in the MC Hammer era, my life had lots of "Can't Touch This" and "To Legit to Quit" in it. So, my expectation going to this concert was one of fulfilling some nestalgic yearning. To my surprise, MC Hammer still has it and his performance (while short) was awesome! It was particularly awesome that my group was selected to dance on stage with him and my husband selected to do a dance "solo". I highly recommend taking this trip down memory lane!

Tone Loc was great but he sang very few songs. Then JJ Walker, the emcee, told the audience to stand up and welcome MC Hammer then he left the stage. We did...nothing happened. Someone played about four Muzak type songs then JJ Walker came out again and asked us to welcome MC Hammer. We did....nothing again. Then, when MC did show up, he and his dancers danced or walked on to the stage, did their number, then walked off. There was more Muzak between MC's songs!! MC's very last song was "Can't Touch This" which he sang somewhere on a full stage of audience members. I didn't see him once. No way to keep the audience happy and dancing. And I paid more than $90.00 to see this!!!

Listening to Hammer music always makes me move. I keep it in my car. Sometimes I have to watch myself, so I don't get a speeding ticket. LOLOLOLOL I specifically made the trip from San Francisco to Reno to see MC Hammer. As soon as I knew of the show I booked my reservations. I was there!!!!!!!!!! One thing I would like to hear is more signature songs, ie: Turn This Mother Out, It's All Good and so on. I am excited to have the opportunity to see him whenever he performs. Looking forward to the next time, and hope to hear more signature songs.!!!!!!!!!!

It was an unbelievably bad performance. Half of the crowd sat there at the end with absolute blank stares of amazement that we actually paid $60+ per ticket to watch MC Hammer "perform" for one hour. So much was lip-synced, uninspired, and very disorganized. There were about twenty people that enjoyed the performance and the rest found it an absolute bore. We obviously liked and wanted to see the show, but came away totally empty. It was like he drove up to Reno with eight young dancers to make $15K and get out as quickly as he came in. An absolute embarassment.

Concert was great, however waiting for the show to start like 2 1/2 hours was rude! Like the Nokia for concerts, and the bar lounge! MC, good performance! However, I needed coffee by the time he hit the stage! I go to concerts all the time for many artists!

Purchased tickets months ago and was excited about this show. Feeling nostalgic, I was hoping to see a good old school act. However, I learned that some things should stay in the past - like Hammer time. The opening acts were HORRIBLE. To add insult to injury, Hammer was WORSE then his opening acts. The only saving grace for the evening was seeing Cedric the Entertainer who was nice enough to stop and say hello to any and everyone. Hammer did not really perform at all after waiting three hours and thirty minutes before he came on stage. He said two or three lines from each song, drank water, stood back while his entourage "a group of children" tried to entertain a old school crowd and folks that brought their young children. (Tickets said rated for everyone) It seems he was only about the money because his days for entertaining the crowd are clearly over. Too bad Michael is gone; he would definitely get the glove back!!

The line-up was really great. Lenny Williams, Tony, Toni, Tone, Confunkshun,and the E Family were amazing. However, En Vogue was so so and MC Hammer was awful! I, along with all those I heard commenting upon leaving, were disappointed in MC Hammer's performance.

I was pumped up about Hammers show not only because of what I have seen on TV but I have also heard so many good things about the show he puts on. Needless to say I really wanted my Monies back. I got a ticket for my girl friend who has cancer and she really wanted to see Hammer for a pick-me -up, Not only was it getting cold we thought we would warm up when Hammer came on. Well we got colder once Hammer came on she was disappointed and was the one that suggusted we leave after his 2nd song. I apologized to her that our long waited show was a flop. About En-Vogue they could have practiced more and when they are doing Shout Outs about other Artists they should at least get the name right.!

1st.part, tony,toney,tone, lenny williams, e-family confunkshun were great. En Vogue was tolerable(didn't know Lenny williams correct name(she said white) and had no idea that Tony, toney, tone') was the right name of the group. Then here comes Hammer with sound system problems and the crowd started leaving like flies. What a shame. Have never seen him in person and probably won't pay to see him in the future. A BIG DISAPPOINTMENT. I was super dissatisfied. Pay money, see 1/2 of show. Not good at this time when people want what they paid for.

MC Hammer was absolutely terrible!!! It was such a shame too b/c he was the headliner. But to slightly defend him, the sound system was horrible!!!!! And it totally went out during his performance so you couldn't even hear him rapping nor was his music blasting. On top of that, he had these highschool dancers behind him who did nothing to hype up the crowd!!! Let's face it, he ain't as young as he used to be and needed a hype man desperately!!!!!!!!!! It was just sad. Even the DJ during intermissions was horrible! Didn't play anything to make the crowd get up and dance! It was pathetic!! Con Funk Shun should have been the headliner. They were good and hyped the crowd up where everybody was up dancing & groovin. Tony Toni Tone was good too. Actually the best acts were Con Funk Shun, Tony Toni Tone and the E family and that was it. If not for these acts, I would be requesting a refund cuz even EnVogue wasn't all that as they mostly sang cover songs of other people rather than singing their own songs. I didn't get it. This was probably the worst concert as far as venue and performances I've been to in quite awhile...

Most of the show was pretty good. We waited for MC Hammer to come on and close the show and when he came out he sounded horrible from the very beginning. He kept leaving the stage and his rapping was all off key!!! He sounded like he was out of breath too. He needs to RETIRE!

The show was very good. Lenny Williams belted out his songs as expected of a vetern crooner. The E family's set was great but too short. Tony Toni Tone was pretty good, but I think it should be called the Dwayne Wiggins show. EnVougue was off the chain. MC Hammer should have been first. His show was terrirble. He was not prepared and it showed.

I was so impressed and excited with the performances. Took me back to a great time in my life. But MC Hammer was the biggest disappointment I have ever experienced at a concert. Unprepared; it the only word that explains that performance. Message/motivation to Hammer: you are Oakland's MJ. I have defended you strongly over the years. "Hammer is an entertainer, with moral-friendly raps." We your fans felt unvalued. Maybe after you stew over this you can redeem yourself with an awesome FREE concert in Oakland. Hey! I know we're not the youngsters we used to be but a little effort, atleast.

The show was cool. The camera person for the overhead screen & the lighting person both sucked. But the headliner- Hammer topped it. In my 40 yrs, It was the worst performance I'VE SEEN EVER. This was his home crowd; people booed and walked out by the thousands. I've never seen anything like it. The parking lot had more people & he was still performing! Crazy!

I was very disappointed in the entire show with the exception of Lenny Williams. Hammer was the the biggest disappointment to me and my family. All of the acts appeared rushed, the best part of the show was the DJ Rick and Ross. I don't think I will ever attend another Bay Area raised talent again!

The Stone Soul II concert featured Bay area talent of which the first four artists were outstanding!!! EnVogue was ok their voices were good but unfortunately They sang other groups songs. They should have been featured Earlier in the program . The headliner artist MC Hammer should have stayed home. After waiting all day to hear our favorite Hammer tunes the best he could do was lipsing!! Wow what A let down for all of us. Forget the dancing Hammer leave that to the youngsters!!!

Great concert, EXCEPT for the last 2 acts....En Vogue was just ok. They sang several songs from other artists. Great harmony, but a bit "lack-luster" OH, and one of the members of the group while referencing the previous groups, called Lenny Williams, "Lenny White". WOW! Then there was HAMMER...A HUGE DISSAPOINTMENT!!! After waiting 9 hours to see him perform....He still had the crowd waiting after he was announced....2 full length songs played when audience member stood for him to come out, WHAT WAS THAT ABOUT??? Then he was dissatisfied with the sound...SMH. There were too many gaps and dead time in between his "songs" Well if didn't get any better.....his final "performance" was quite odd (or was it just me???) All these people from the Audience (or least it looked that way) came out on stage and "Can't Touch This" started playing (rather dimly) and the people on stage started dancing.... TIME TO GO!!! OK, end on a POSITIVE NOTE, Lenny "WILLIAMS", was FABULOUS! He opened it up & turned the crowd OUT!!! Tony Toni Tone and Con Funk Shun were very good and the E Family was TOP NOTCH! So, I would say overall, it really was a great show.

I was very disappointed, there was very long pauses in between acts and the MC didn't keep the crowd going. Shock G from Digital Underground Urinated on the stage and dragged out his act and played mostly 2 Pac songs. I came to see them rock the stage and that truly didn't happen. 2 Live Crew, Sir-Mix- A lot were great but that was really it for me. I left before MC Hammer even came on stage. I always go to the Old School events and I was planning on dancing and having a blast. I will say even the groups of people around me were disappointed as well.

We really loved how he worked hard to involve the audience in the show. He personally handed out roses to ladies near the front during a love song, and he spent a lot of time down in the audience and brought a lot of people up from the audience on to the stage. The only thing was, near the end, there were so many audience members up there that we couldn't see the man himself for the last part of the show.

Mc Hammer was everything I expected and more. The crowd gave him much love the moment he stepped on the stage. He was electrifying and very humble. I was singing and dancing to every song. I really enjoyed it when people were invited onstage. I was right up there and reached out and touched him when he began "can't touch this". Mc Hammer is a must see whenever and wherever.

So much fun to watch! The moment he started the show I was up grooving' the entire time! The backdrop of the stage was likely not at grand as it was when he was making MILLIONS, but the man can still dance! His posse is comprised of people who are closer to him ( he had his kids as part of the dance crew) so there was a feeling of a more intimate, down home show. I would see him again. Just to watch him sing all his classics live, is worth it! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I wish he could have played a longer.

It was my 40th birthday, it was amazing, and I'll remember it forever! MC Hammer was BY FAR my favorite artist ever seen at the casino...and that's not even fair... He was an AMAZING artist. I've seen him twice before, in the 80's and 90's... And I think this performance was the best ever! I do however have a complaint about the seating. Two people in front of us scooted their chairs back... They were large people and needed more room, which meant we (even my 6'5 tall fiancée had less room). We were cramped the entire time. They also had their camera/phone and flashing lights in all of our faces e ENTIRE concert. Not impressed with that.

I thoroughly enjoyed MC Hammer. He is quite the entertainer. MC mades the audience feel like you are part of his production. The dancers that are on the show with him are so talented, and everything was action-packed by this production from start to finish. If he plays against at the Emerald Queen Casino, I plan to go see him again with my family. Definitely "Hammer Time" with this talented artist, the dnancers and singers in his show.

Was amazing!! I always wanted to see him live when I was a kid. Was good hearing the old songs and some of his new stuff. At some point, people got braclets to meet him and get things signed. I was one of the first in the place and did not see people getting the braclets so I did not get to meet him and have him sign my cast like I have been waiting for. I hope there will be another concert so I can get another chance.

Mc Hammer still got it. He was just as good as the old days. Sounded the same. Sang all his old goodies 2 legit to qwit and even talked alittle bit bout his relationship with Tupac sang his favorite song Keep on with Luther van gross. It was a nice show he even went into the crowd got people going. I just didnt like the seating arrangements. I don't understand why these Indian casinos that make so much money can't have an actual built in theater with proper seats. Instead we have to sit in a meeting room with a stage. With chairs just lined up. People didnt feel comfortable standing up dancing and really getting into concert afraid of blocking people sitting behind. Seats were back to back so your directly sitting behind someone forget it if they're huge you won't see a thing unless youstand up which you feel you cant witch makes the performer feel like audience not into them. Also wished they sold souvenirs like t shirts.

What a concert! I love the fact that most of the artists don't just use backup tracks but instead bring out a whole band. Makes you feel you got your money's worth, and makes it feel like a party! The only weak link in the chain was the headliner, MC Hammer. He used pre-recorded tracks, the audio kept hissing feedback, and his voice was totally shot -- he sucked and made it easy to decide to leave early. Otherwise, there wasn't a weak performance in the bunch. En Vogue are as sexy and talented as ever, Con Funk Shun blew the house away, and the E family was smokin' hot (esp. Sheila!). But the standout was Tony Toni Tone, with at least a dozen band members on stage. In fact, everyone except MC Hammer sounded just like they did back in the day. This is always a great event at a great venue, and this was no exception. I hope they keeping doing this forever!

Sorry to say, Hammer was a great disappointment. I have never been to a concert that people booed the artist on stage and left. Set up took to long and someone messed up the sound system, other than that I enjoyed myself.

I thoroughly enjoyed the concert. ConFunkShun, the E Family, EnVogue, even Lenny Williams was good. But, why in the heck did MC Hammer headline the show? The group was unorganized and bootsie (for lack of a better word). The young dancers were good but there were too many problems w/ sound and intermissions between each dance number. Yikes!

We got to Sleep Train Pavilion at 11am. We had no idea that the concert was going until 9pm. That didn't really bother me. What bothered me more was how much time it took from one performer to the next performer. A lot of waiting. I enjoyed the music from the DJ more then that actual performers. Mc Hammer was booed and that's when we decided to leave. Actually everyone was leaving by that point. I wouldn't go to this even again. Not worth my time or money.

Was very impressed with all the artist performances except McHammer he really disappointed me. I was so excited to see him but he was so unorganized and just not what i was expecting from him. Everyone else phenomenal loved it.

The show was not as good as the last Stone Soul. Envou tried to out-scream each other. MC Hammer could not keep up with his crew. He looks great, but it's tine for him to retire! Dealing with my over 60 friend, I missed Lenny Williams. The E family and Con-Function was great!

I enjoyed The Escavedo Family the most and feel ConFunkShun should have stayed on longer, they were awsome. Envoge are beautifuly talented Sisters who showed everybody they still have it after all these years, "you go girls!" Lenny Williams is a true professional, his voice is still amazing. Toni Tony Tone was off the hook even without RS, I would go see them again. Not sure what happened to MC Hammer, maybe he was having an off day, it happens to the best of us. I wanted to at least see the "Hammer pants!"

The lineup was great but they should have performed differently. Lenny Williams was great first and I think Envogue should have followed, then Hammer, Toni, Tony, Tone, E Family and Con Fun Shun. The best acts were in the middle of the show and after the mishap with Hammer, the morale went down.

Got their late, but saw an excellent performance from the Escovedo Family and Con Funk Shun. En Vogue wasn't my favorite, looked and sounded like a Las Vegas show. MC Hammer dissappointed us entirely. Seemed as though they weren't prepared for the performance, he used recorded music instead of a DJ and too long lapses in between songs. Left after two songs, so did a lot others. He should have been first in the line-up, then I could have seen Toni, Toni, Tone! Also, could you please improve the quality of the food you have for sale? Healthier and tastier would be good.

Boyz II Men were great, MC Hammer not so much. It was worth the price though to see the two acts for $25- if you were a fan of them back in the day.

Loved seeing Boyz II Men again. They were just as great as I remember them being when I saw them in the 90s! Couldn't have asked for anything more. They were awesome!!! It was also good to see MC Hammer, however, in my opinion he seemed a little cocky and I hated when he brought several audience members on stage with him. It was like organized chaos. I would have rather seen and listened to him sing with his dancers versus a bunch of strangers.

Boys II Men were amazing and look forward to seeing them again. M.C.Hammer was ok. He was good until the end when he brought people on stage to dance. There was so many people that you could not see him. I paid money to go see M.C.Hammer not a bunch of strangers that was drunk trying to show off.

Boys II Men opened and they killed it! Loved listening to the Old Skool hits and they were breaking it down ! Love! Love! Hammer on the other hand who was the so called headliner was HORRIBLE ! We ended up leaving after the first song! Dancers were also second rate! only reason I rated average because of Boys II Men !

Boyz II Men in Concert was outstanding. They still sound great and I loved the way they interacted with the crowd. I met them backstage and they were so gracious. A dream come true.

Both Boyz II Men and MC Hammer were at the top of their game. I was kind of disappointed that our seats were up so high in the grandstand when there were a lot of empty seats closer to the stage.

Boys II Men put on a great show singing their most popular songs from "I'll Make Love to you," to "Seasons" and of course "Motown Philly." Their singing was accompanied by great synchronized dance moves. They brought me back to my times in middle school. The show would have been even better with a live band but I understand that this was just a small fair so that would have been asking a bit much. I would see them again in concert and after this performance I'm excited to get thier new cd which is coming out in Oct. My excitement to see MC Hammer was met with dissapointment. They dancers were subpar at best. The transitions from song to song were slow and awkward. At one pt Hammer came off stage and down to the track which made for an even longer wait to see what in the world he was doing. The male dancers flopped around the track, climbing fences while the females on stage did random moves that didn't even remind me of ol school MC Hammers dances. It was sad really. It was so dissapointed that I left the concert early.

Boys II Men and Hammer should put on a clinic for these up and coming artist who feel like they want to be entertainers not just rappers and singers. These guys no how to really give a show.

If I could have given MC Hammer's concert 0 stars, I would have. This was the worst concert I have ever seen and I wasted A LOT of money. This man deteriorated before our eyes. The last 20 minutes of the concert EVERYONE had left but about 25 of us. I only stayed out of determination of what I had spent for this concert. I AM NOT A HAPPY CAMPER. He should retire or go to the free street concert circuit. I have waited for years to see him. I can't imagine anyone giving this concert a good rating.

Boys II Men were awesome. Still kicking myself for missing the first 30 minutes!!!! I would definitely see then in concert again no doubt :) They sang the songs like there were written, told some amazing stories and danced their @$$es off! MC Hammer was...okay. He still got moves for a 49 year old! His dancers were awesome though. Took my back to high school

Boyz II Men made it totally worth the money!!! That was the best concert I've seen in along time. MC Hammer on the other hand was a total joke!!! We walked out when he started his 3rd song. He shouldn't have blown his money from his early days because he is pathetic as a performer now.

I was really looking forward to this concert because I have loved Boyz II Men since the early 90's! They were great and I wish they could've sung longer than they did. However, MC Hammer came out entirely too loud and the bass was probably the highest it could go. I have been to hundreds of concerts over the past 20 years and have been to some loud shows where the bass is in your chest, but this was way over the top. Also, the choreography of his dancers and Hammer himself was completely bizarre and overly sexual. We left after the third song, but it was still totally worth driving three hours to see my favorite group of all time!

MC Hammer was great, but the ration of Boyz II Men to Hammer seemed disproprtiante. I would assume that a MC Hammer with Boyz II Men would be mostly Hammer, but the show was two hours of B2M and one hour of Hammer

Boyz were amazing they still have it & would love to see them again but McHammer wow now I liked hammer when I was a teenager but this felt like there was no new growth since the 1990s other than trying to sound gangster which is not the hammer I liked or came to hear we left after 30 min of Hammers performance! Would have stayed all night to listen to the Boyz though! All these years & they still sound amazing!

Boyz II Men should have been the main act for this show. Not only were they personable during the entire set, but there were no awkward breaks in the music or show. They interacted with the audience throughout and put on a good show of their former hits and medleys of other cover songs. MC Hammer, on the other hand, was nothing but confusing and bad number after another. With nothing else on stage but his backup dancers, each song was followed by an awkward 3-4 minutes of silence in between. When he moved from the stage to the track audience, once again, everyone just seemed confused. The last straw was probably the fact that he debuted his son's newest track but inviting random audience members on stage to just dance around for the next 20 minutes. His son did not perform, it was just an audio track while Hammer was mysteriously missing from stage. Horrible performance.
