    Not very organized and too long

    by GolfingQueen on 2011-12-01Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - Calgary

    Although the cause was very important, I found there was too much lag time and way too long intermission but I also felt there was a bit of disorganization.

    We all enjoyed the variety of the entertainment and, of course, the Elvis content. The two female dancers that apperaed with a number of reverent Elvis's songs were not really necessary and somewhat distracting. Some of the music got so loud that we could not hear the words, especially on a couple of Charlie Major songs. Overall a very enjoyable evening and well worth the price of the tickets. None of the information on Ticketmaster for this show mentioned the charitable nature; this may have attracted some additonal patrons.

    Ho Hum Show

    by Koopie on 2011-12-01Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - Calgary

    This is billed as Rev. Elvis and Friends "Blue Christmas". To me, that meant a Christmas concert; however, while there was some Christmas music and themed skits, there was a lot of country music. Not bad music, just not what we were expecting. Dare I say this - it seems like the Rev. Elvis is a bit full of himself. He seems to believe that volume will make up for quality vocals. I was less than impressed with his "Elvis" style signing - not even in the ball park! This concert went on way too late for a Tuesday night - will be better when on a Friday next year. As we are not huge country and western fans, will likely not attend again.

    Blue Christmas

    by NoMoreConcerts on 2011-12-01Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - Calgary

    The material on Blue Christmas might have been great. Unfortunately it seemed that the singers and the background band were having a contest to see who would be heard and spent the night yelling into the mikes, and increasing the volume. Most of the time, the band won. There were times the base was so loud that the seats and the walls vibrated. The Jubilee was built for superior acoustics but one would never know that from the volume of the background. There was certainly no need for any of the accompanying vocalists because they could never be heard. I am not sure why the sound check people assume that the sound is at an appropriate level when patrons need to yell to speak to the person seated beside them. A concert like this caters to an 'older' crowd, most of whom do not want the din and volume at the levels that the younger generation listen to their music. This was noise pollution at its worst. The only songs to which I actually heard the words were the Traveling Mabels and Charley Major's Evening Side, both of which were accompanied only by guitars. I had really gone to hear the Reverend Elvis sing some of the Elvis songs, and he might have done that but it certainly was a struggle to hear him over the noise of the band. I had heard the Huron Carol previously and was looking forward to this rendition, but the vocalist was completely drowned out by the band. The hoop dancer was excellent, the dancers with Reverend Elvis need much more practice. This concert just reinforced my resolve not to attend another concert because of the headache I develop by halfway through the program because the sound monitor is deaf when he sets the volume levels.

    Blue Christmas had some flaws

    by KathyO on 2011-12-01Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - Calgary

    The band was good but far too loud. It drowned out some would-have-been excellent vocals. Some microphones were of a poor quality or needed some adjustments. Jimmy Hughes should have been provided with a black choir-type folder for his notes rather than having to fumble, shuffle through, and unfold. The charity checks would have been much more presentable if each had been displayed on the screen and a usual size cheque handed to each recipient. The angel presentations of the huge checks were too cumbersome, disorganized, and time consuming. A 20 minute intermission should have been held to 20 minutes!! Several people around us got up and left after the inordinate length of time had passed. We very much enjoyed most acts
