Massimo Ranieri

The show was not meant for the masses. It was meant only for Italians. It should have been billed that way. It would have been OK if he was a good singer and just sang even in Italian. He talked more than he sang. We didn t understand a word of it. We left after 30 minutes. It was the worst show we have been to.

The venue was nice cozy seats were great! Concert was beautiful !

He has the energy to perform 2 hrs.but the lighting and sound were problems!

Massimo is not only a great singer but also a showman.

This was was my first concert at Tropicana, and Massimo Ranieri's concert made it absolutely the BEST!!

I was very disappointed with this show of Massimo! I have seen him in the past and it was better....he did not sing alot of his good songs and talked alot and did skits! The casino did not even view him on the big screens so that we could have seen him closer and bigger. It all sucked!!!

He did not interact with the audience. Did not do a meet and greet. I spotted him coming out of side door covered with a scarf, hat and hand covering his face, facing down; I tried to get a photo, unfortunately he was with a security person and a woman. When the woman realized I knew and tried to ask for a photo; they rushed him down a private hallway. I am 45 I would not go out of my way. He acted as though he was to good to stop for a photo. Waited for a long time to see him ,paid $500.00 for 3 tickets, was disappointed. Security across the front, so as not to approach the stage. Massimo Ranieri we like your music, we are NOT all mesmerized with you.

Great one man show! he did a great job. love his songs and his stories

I have never missed any of his concerts here in the states. I must say that he let myself down and the vast majority of the other fans with this one. This show was not even close to his theme of Sogno e Son Desto. Without any substance. This was a one man cheap show with a skeleton band crew most likely attributed to his unwillingness to pay for additional entertainers. It was a disgrace to his name, his life long successful career and the paying fans in the states . He should have left the poetry to poets and jokes to comedians and concentrated on what he does best. Singing! The Italian American people in the states are neither ignorant to the fact that Massimo Ranieri pulled a fast one on us. Thinking that no one would noticed it. This fan most certainly did!

I've followed Massimo's career for 46 years. He never, ever disappoints no matter what genre of entertainment he may be doing, song, dance, theatre, movies. I've been lucky to have seen him perform in the New York area 11 times over the past 28 years. He is the consummate performer and the Oct. 3rd show at the Taj was a testament to his incredible talent. Here's hoping he returns soon!

The show was great I enjoyed his performance very much and it was nice to see Massimo Ranieri not only enjoying his songs but he is an excellent entertainer.

The concert was amazing. We had a great time. I would recommend this Venue and this Group to all! Thank you for making our experience here a time worth remembering.

Massimo Raniere is more then a great singer...Great songs and very entertaining!!! The dancers... also great!!!

Massimo put on a mediocre show by Ne w York standards however that did not seem to matter as such of the audience was from the part of Italy Massimo comes from. I was impressed by his all woman band but his dancers left a lot to be desired. Their training was mediocre at best. Massimo had a wonderful connection with the audience but I did hear the crowd complain that he did not do any of the old songs. I would not consider seeing any other artist at the Manhattan Center. The seating was very disorganized. The chairs were filthy and we were crammed in like sardines with minimal air conditioning. For the price of the ticket it was not worth it. People showed up and not enough chairs were put out so they asked us to pick up our chairs and move down. For $128.00 plus service fees I expect a clean theater with some service.

I've been following Massimo's career for 43 years! He is just a wonderful performer, singer, dancer, actor. He is just amazing!! I think the Hammerstein is a great venue and enjoyed Massimo's June 2 show which was excellent as it was when he came in 2003 to the Hammerstein. He is a true talent and is surrounded by equally talented musicians, dancers, staff. I have been very lucky to have met Massimo on several occasions and he is truly a humble, kind person. A true gentleman. I hope that when he returns to the USA in the future that the Hammerstien will host him again.

The Hammerstein Ballroom turned into Italy for the night, as Massimo Ranieri put on a great show in NYC. Being a big fan since I saw him in Sicily in 2007, it was the first time I heard he was playing in the USA, and it was worth the trip. It was one of those shows where most of the crowd sang every line, and yelled Bravo afterwards. I barely heard an English word spoken all night. Hopefully Massimo makes a trip to the USA more often.

The concert was fantastic. Massimo Ranieri made a spectacular show and what a talent!

The show was great. The theater was terrible. The seating was all one level and we came out of there with a soar neck.

As a last minute ticket purchaser I was very satisfied with the will call process and the concert. Massimo performed for 2.5 hours with no break, could have sat there even longer. Wish he had sand some more of the original canzoni Napoletane, but I enjoyed it nevertheless.

The music was fabulous. Some of it brought me back to remembering my grandfather. His dancing was great and his singing was absolutely fabulous. I didn't want it to end. I had seen him before but it was not like this. I would love to see him again.

Beautiful show and performance one of the best I have ever seen.

GREAT SHOW, BUT NEVER ENOUGH!!! MASSIMO IS A TRUE SHOWMAN ENTERTAINER.

SPECTACULAR, A TRUE SHOWMAN, ENTERTAINER, ACTOR, DANCER, CHARISMATIC, A CROWD PLEASER. THE ENTIRE SHOW WAS WONDERFUL AND THE "ENCORE" WAS A DEFINITE "HIT" WITH THE NYC CROWD.. I ESPECIALLY ENJOYED THE "NEAPOLITAN" SONGS OF OLD!!!!!!! IN FACT, I SAW BOTH SHOWS, FOXWOODS ON FRIDAY AND NYC ON SATURDAY. I WAS THE ONE WITH THE ROSES!!!!!!!!!

Massimo Ranieri is of the caliber of a venue worthy of a voice, comedian and theatre performer---he was stuffed into a cabaret-like setting--we paid (overpaid) for seats where you could not see a thing, and his talent was not given its full glory in this horribly filthy venue. A disgrace and embarrassment to this master performer.
