Memorial Weekend Music Festival

JOE did HIS thing despite the sound system being messed up. HE came out singing "Where U At", "I Wanna Know" "Good Girls", HIS new song "i'D Rather Have a Love" along w/others. HIS voice is just so sweet, JOE is 1 of the best if the the greatest R & B singer I've heard.

Overall, the show was extremely entertaining from the very first moment. After 7 aimed to please the ladies, and En Vogue's harmonies were extermely tight. Even though the first two opening acts were singing to soundtracks, they did a great job. Joe had a great band and really put on a great show, but due to sound issues it was hard to hear him at times. Towards the end of his set, his frustration with the sound company showed a little bit -but all in all, he was the consummate professional. Heads of State? Three words: WORTH EVERY PENNY!

Even though Joe wasn't the headliner - his was the best set. I loved After 7 and En Vogue was a wonderful surprise. I don't understand why the "Heads of State" were the headliners since none of them have any new music out or coming out. All in all with the exception of a few mic problems we had a great time. The sound system was great (except the mics kept malfunctioning). If I had it to do over I would go again and again. Since I am a serious Joe fan I enjoyed his set even though it was cut short.

I really was shocked this event wasn't sold out for a long weekend. I'm not from Houston but came into town from San Antonio just for this concert. After 7 was amazing. En Vogue only perform a few of their songs. Joe was the best artist by far but left the stage during his set because his mic wasn't working. By the time Heads of State took the stage, I couldn't hear them because the music was way too loud. The acoustics in this venue need to definitely upgraded.

This was the best concert EVER. Everything was on point. The singers really took us back to when music really meant something. After 7 was awesome and they haven't aged a bit. The choreography, suits, lyrics were perfect. En Vogue had it going on. They are still sexy and sound great. Joe was so cool, smooth, handsome, and so damn sexy, I can't wait until July 2. Bobby Brown, Johnny Gill, and Ralph Tresvant really amazed me at how wonderful they sounded. They were hilarious and Bobby Brown is a fool. I just wished we (Houston) could've had a better turnout. We owe it to ourselves to represent our city and support REAL music. I can't wait for the next one. I will definitely be there.

Loved the concert I travel 100 plus miles to see it with my husband. But the microphone were not working and joe left the stage. But over all it was worth it Just to see BOBBY BROWN, he made my trip worth while. I would do it again in a heart beat.........

Great line up for this event. But the sound system was horrible invest in some new equipment. Bobby Brown needs help it was obvious he had a little to drink.

This show was exactly what the doctor ordered. My girls and I needed to get out so at the last minute we decided to attend. Bobby Brown is still a fool! Heads of State did a wonderful job, but JOE was the higlight of my night! That boy knows he can sing..LAWD!!!! After 7 did a great job as well (they're some very smooth brothers LOL) . The show started on time and ended around midnight. I wish they had a host or comedian to help out with the flow of the show to keep the crowd entertained between acts, even intermission. Overall, I can't wait for the next show! Hopefully we can get some D'Angelo, Erykah Badu, Xscape, Boyz II Men, Brian McKnight, Lauryn Hill, Maxwell, Toni Braxton, Monica, Tyrese, Usher, R. Kelly, Jon B, 112, or Avant!!!! (the list could go on and on)

the sound people were not very good with the mics for the singers. Joe's mic's keep going in and out and so did the head of states mics also. Johnny keep going to the sound guy about his mic,

Facility was ok. Nothing special about the surroundings. Floor seats in section A so we were considerably close to the stage. All acts were good but the sound was WAY to loud and the artist were obviously having problems with the microphone. At the end of Joe's set, he couldn't finish his last song because "ya'll killing me with this mic", and he said good bye to the crowd and left the stage just a few lines into his song. EnVoge was not the three ladies advertised. Instead, we got two original members and a new member who was obviously suppose to be replacement for Maxine and Dawn. Their set was pretty good. H.O.S. were good but like every other act, the music was WAY to loud. We actually left into Johnny Gill's first song. My hearing in my left ear was diminished until Monday afternoon.

Event was amazing. Great artist. Sound system was a mess. Could not tell from the beginning what artist was singing till they got into the song. Joe actually did not perform his last song due to sound issues. Need a better sound system.

I was looking forward to this concert, but if I knew then what I know now, I would have save myself the money and aggravation. The quality of the sound diminished as the concert progress. By the third performer, it was horrible. Last time I would support this venue.

The entire show-from After 7 to Heads of State was absolutely wonderful! Enjoyed the show!

I had never been to a concert at Reliant Center. No big screens so you can see the faces; not good.

Excellent concert , the only downer was when J.O.E. walked off the stage because of a mic problem

The concept was great but the sound was terrible. Someone didn't do a good job at all (sound person)!

After 7 and EnVogue came with a lot of energy, Joe walked off the stage because his mic was acting up. Heads of State was okay. The arena had some serious sound issues.

The artists were great. The sound quality was horrendous. Absolutely atrocious. They increased the volume of the music, but not the artist's mics. This is my second concert at the Reliant Arena where this occurred. Whatever sound people they used, they need to be replaced forever. Didn't they do a sound check????? I won't be going back. My ears are still ringing, 2 days later.

The performers, bless their hearts, really tried their best but the sound system was horrible!! Some of the people near me were beyond lewd in their behavior and it just wasn't a fun time for me and my friends/family. Several of the artists were onstage and complained about the sound. I love JOE but I was embarrassed and stunned when he stopped singing, put the mic down,and left the stage because of the poor sound quality. I will never return to the Reliant Arena again for another show.

When I first purch my tix, it was promoted as New Edition, i don't listen to radio much and didnt know it was switched. The songs were 'hits' the 3 had as solo artists. The sound system was too loud and therefore muffled and the mics screeched, even causing one of the artist to end his performance.

I enjoyed the show!! I received a rose from after 7. EN Vogue brought it with their great voices and performance.Joe with all his finest really sounded great! But Bobby Brown shut it down, just being a great performer, singer, and artist. Johnny Gill and Ralph sounded just as smooth as they did from the first time we heard their voices.I ENJOYED THE SHOw!! They were all awesome!! They all still look and sound the same!!

The sound was horrible at this concert!! The speakers were TOO loud ( I was seated on the floor directly in front of the left speaker hanging from ceiling), the band was turned up too loud where they competed with the artists and oftentimes you couldn't even hear the artist. The mics kept going out for each act, where one artist (Joe) didn't even start/finish his last song before he just walked off the stage! When Johnny, Bobby, and Ralph came out, I was excited but because the sound was even worse at this point I couldn't even enjoy the show! I came in town from Florida for the concert as this ende up being a waste of money! Also the venue itself was like a high school gymnasium! They left the lights on the entire time an the users has NO CLUE where the seats were located. We had seats 1-5 and somehow ended up in the middle of the row?! DJ was horrible and even addresses that the crowd was complaining about the sound. I literally got out of my seat mid concert and went to the sound booth to complain. Clearly nothing happened. Bad BAD experience! I want my money back!

I liked all of the performers, especially Heads of State.

The performers were great however the sound was HORRIBLE!! To the point that Joe was going to perform one last song and just walked off stage two lines into the song because his microphone wasn't working!!

While I truly appreciated the efforts by After 7, EnVogue and Joe, the sound quality was horrible!! Joe even cut his performance short because the sound technicians couldn't get his mic working properly. Now as for The Heads of State, I really couldn't tell you if they were any good or not simply because the sound was entirely too loud!! Ralph sounded as if he still had it, Johnny sounded as if he still had it, but Bobby, well???? Overall, I feel as though I wasted my money and I would not recommend this concert to anyone... Buy the albums, you will get a better show and save your time...

Great show! No problems what so ever. Highly recommended!!

Bobby brown, Ralph and johnnie made me feel like I was 25 again!!! Had me on my feet all night !!! But all the groups were great!! It was a good group for a tour!

Enjoyed all acts just wish After 7 could have stay on longer En Vogue ,Joe did very well, and New Edition I wish could sung some of there old songs but all 3 of them sung there old hits which was good

Concert was very good if you like ol school 90's music!

The concert had its ups and downs. We really couldn't hear Joe. The band was too loud, especially the saxophone player. The crowd was lost during and after Joe's performance. Heads of State got the crowd back.
