    Great evening, could have listened to him for hours longer

  • Good Choice of Material

    by jontopia on 2012-11-04Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - CalgaryRating: 4 out of 5

    After 25 years in the Biz, Colin James has a lot of choice material and was placed well throughout the show. I think he good have played longer though. The first 4 songs were to compressed as the sound man was getting the sound together but then the sound opened up and it was great. lee Harvey was also very good but spent as much time talking as he did playing. I definately thought the whole show was great

  • Colin James - never long enough

    Too short....not long enough, seemed to be done when he was done...we all wanted more

  • Colin James brings back memories!

    by ColinFanForLife on 2012-11-04Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - CalgaryRating: 4 out of 5

    Tom was a terrific opening act - really enjoyed him and his ability to interact with the audience. Colin started a bit slow with some less popular material, but got better as the night went on! Especially liked his acoustic songs and older material. Could use more multi-media in his show such as some video screens on the sides or above the stage - couldn't see him very well from the back of the Jube where we were sitting. Also would like to hear more interaction with the audience (more background stories about the songs, learn more about Colin, etc).

  • Colin was Fabulous!!

    Excellent guitar player. Great to hear such a variety of his music.

  • Colin James is amazing

    by FrankG on 2012-11-02Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 4 out of 5

    This is the third time I have seen Colin James live and each time I'm even more amazed by his talent. He has to be one of the top blues guitar players out there with a style and smoothness that very few players possess. James has a great voice and the horn section in the band really adds something special. His show was fast paced with no dip in the energy, and there was a good mix of his new material and his hits, with a Stevie Ray Vaughan tune thrown in for good measure. Great Show!

  • small package BIG TALENT

    by oldskooltoo on 2012-11-01Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 4 out of 5

    Like my name (and the crowd's resonses) suggests; old songs appreciated the most. Solid band, and Tom too. Q: how many guitars does Collin own/play??????

  • What a talent !!

    by QueenD on 2012-11-01Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 5 out of 5

    I could not sit still in my seat !!!! The music was awesome - his voice is amazing! The sound in that venue was soooooooooo good - very well mixed and clear. Amazing to see all the guitars on stage and he played every single one of them. The rest of his band were fabulous and harmonies were awesome as well. I will definitely go see him again - could've sat there for another 2 hours !!!!

  • Colin rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Great value -- thoroughly enjoyed the show. Lots of energy and we all just wanted more! I wish I could follow his tour across Canada. Thank you, thank you!!

  • Colin James - Solid as Ever

    by LarCat on 2012-11-01Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 5 out of 5

    Having seen Colin James a couple of times, I never pass up the opportunity to see him and take a friend who has not seen him previously. I love his music and his passion for performing and enjoy sharing an artist such as Colin with someone who may have heard his music but not see hime perform Live Colin is one of those Consumate Live performers and Sounds as Good or if not Better Live. His Voice is right on and the incredible Guitar work is just a joy to watch. Colin's back up band was tight and with him on every move.. Nothing was missed

  • Great show

    by Anonymous on 2012-11-01Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 5 out of 5

    Colin never disappoints and it's amazing to me how he can go hard (Voodoo Thing) and then have great melodies (Into the Mystic). "What a charmer!" was my dates comment :). Great seats even though I ordered late. Felt sorry for several people who sat behind speakers on the edges of the first several rows. They should not have sold those seats!

  • Can't get enough of that Voodoo thing

    by Belladonna on 2012-11-01Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 5 out of 5

    Colin was in fine form when he was in Winnipeg. His playing and singing was phenomenal and the show was a nice mix, with mostly newer material at the start and his older hits toward the end. I think the double encore says it all: we can't get enough of Colin James. (Seriously, I even flirted with following him to Calgary! :)

  • Colin James relly gets into his music. Fabulous!!

    What a great show he can put on with "Little Big Band". You can tell he<s playing with heart.

  • Colin James : Genius!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    by Sadiebug on 2012-10-19National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    Colin James should be required viewing for everybody on the planet who loves music, no one should have to go through life without experiencing one of his concerts!!! :) I go to many, many concerts of all types of music...I think Colin's might be the best I've seen yet (and I've seen some incredible concerts). There are levels of musical genius and Colin is miles above many other performers, he's a super super super music genius!!! His music is amazing (every song) and he's so versatile. He's a guitar Master!!! His voice is perfect, never wavers, perfect pitch and control and he still hits his high notes. He still even looks the same, the guy never seems to change over the years. Seems like a very nice and humble guy, too, stayed after the show to sign autographs... I will go again in a heartbeat to see him if he ever returns to the NAC.

    Colin James: What an entertainer!!! I've wanted to see him for over 10 years now, but he always comes in the new year when we're away down south. So we finally got to see him!! Man can he play the guitar! And THAT VOICE is just as great live! I've been to many of the great concerts that have played in Ottawa & Montreal and I have to say I really enjoyed Colin James from start to finish. Normally I'd get bored half way through, but not this time!! Great entertainment! Thanks

  • Colin James was amazing

    Colin James runs a tight ship with an amazing amount of material. The music was spot on, the band was tight.....it was a great concert!

  • Colin James rocked the NAC

    by ghurk on 2012-10-18National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    Colin James came to the NAC in Ottawa with a larger band than he's been touring with over the last couple of years. They totally cranked it!! It was awesome to hear them do some of the classics like "Real Stuff" and "Voodoo Thing"! His stuff from the new album "Fifteen" were really cool too.

  • Colin James always comes through.

    Always a great show. Solid band to back him up. A good mix of the tried and true oldies and his new songs.

  • Colin James - Fantastic!

    by Reenie27 on 2012-10-17National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    The Colin James concert was fantastic. I love how he feels the music he plays. Next time he's in town to play I'll be one of the first in line.
