VAN @ THE HOLLYWOOD BOWL - DISASTER

What a waste of time the audience only politely responded. Why bother to play if your not listening to the fans who have supported you over the years. It will take me a long time if ever to listen to a Van Morrison song without thinking of the better songs I could of heard live.

WORST SHOW EVER

Have always loved VM but Saturday at the Bowl was a huge disappointment. He has changed his style completely- sounded more like big band Jazz. Most of the set list was comprised of new stuff and it was hard to sit through as we hoped he would do something from the era that made him famous. Even when he did old hits like Into The Mystik, it was done in this new style so barely recognized the song. His voice is still good but as the evening progressed, he sang louder and louder until it felt like he was just yelling into his mic! This is rumored to be his last tour and based upon Saturday’s performance, one can only hope that is true!

WORST CONCERT EVER

I have been going to concerts all over the place for 40 years. This is by far the worst I have ever seen. Who would have thought the sound at the Hollywood bowl could sound like an AM radio. It was horrendous. He had exactly zero energy and I thought literally he was going to fall asleep at any moment. Thankfully I paid only $30 for for the seat which in hindsight was too much. This guy obviously hates his audience hates his fans because he could care less what he sounded like what he looked like or what he's sang. It was truly pathetic

LOS ANGELES HOLLYWOOD BOWL OCT 2, 2021

It never occurred to me to look for reviews for a concert before, but lesson learned. DO NOT spend your money on Van Morrison. When I heard his first song and listened to the lyrics, I knew it was going to end badly. He was stating that he didn’t want to sing the hits. Maybe he doesn’t own the masters, and doesn’t make money off them. He sang 2 hits with revised arrangements that took a minute to recognize them. He did NOT say hello or acknowledge the audience. And people are spending their hard earned money for a ticket. He behaved as if he was indifferent and could not wait to be gone. Left the stage at the end. No goodnight. Will not be buying the new album. No Thanks.

REMEMBER VAN MORRISON???

Well, most people who love him would not have known it was him if they were not seeing him with their own eyes. Like so many other poor reviews stated...I was warned that he doesn't engage with the audience, he didn't play an encore even tho the band waited for almost 20 minutes. Didn't play but 2 of the songs that put him on the charts. I even know his NEW stuff, but ..This was the absolute most disappointed I have ever been at a concert. Hard to even listen to VM now :((

We have loved his music for 50 years but the night we saw him at Ceasers Palace was a disappointment. He played a shortened version of Brown Eyed Girl and that was it of the all the hits he has created over the years. Great musicians in his ensemble including his saxophone play. We spent some good money flying out from Chicago when we could have just played his hits on Alexa If you don’t want to play the songs that made you successful, don’t tour!

IT WAS BAD

I kept wondering who this guy was who was on stage because it was nothing like the Van Morrison that I've ever seen before. He had no emotion, no soul, and no energy. Just walked off the stage without a word after 90 mins. Being there was a waste of my time and money. Hard Rock Live is a great venue, but that was all this concert had going for it
