The concert finally started 1.5 hours after the scheduled time. Junoon, which was the main act, performed for a mere hour. All in all, a rip off. I will not be going back!
I had purchased premium seats at the CAC and was highly disappointed. The chairs were flimsy plastic and the sound system was terrible. I could not hear the vocals and the busic beat hammered my ears. If I had my choice, I would have walked away. My lesson learned NEVER GO TO A MUSIC EVENT AT CAC!
Performance by the lead band were great. The opening acts and sponsor presnetationsbunnecessarily delayed the main performance which was far shorter than 2019 concert by the same band. Audio system was not balanced as the lead singer's voice was not clear. Increasing the volume of sound system is not a fix all solution.
Sponsors took so much time with intros and awards that band play time was juat cut short to just 1 hr few mins. Below avaerage sound system. Disappointing arrangement!!
Loved the concert. The opening with the new talent was just ok but once Junoon took the stage, it was Amazing !!
Band was very very good. Took me back to the time when I was a kid in Delhi, rewinding their album cassette so much to my favourite songs that it stopped working. But I don’t know why the heck, audience was made to sit through those stupid speeches from sponsors. That was simply not good. I had never seen sponsors being called to the stage and talking to the audience, in any other show I’ve been to.
The organizers really should have focused on the sound system. Could hardly hear anyone singing properly, even the opening bands. Either they didn’t know how to utilize the mikes, coz one person was loud enough and the other wasn’t. I understand the need for promoting the sponsors, but it took too long and the band did not even perform for 1.5 hours. Junoon came on stage around 9:45 and at 11pm the organizers come on stage saying they have 15 minutes left. What kind of poor planning was this that the band doesn’t know what time they need to be off the stage. People paid good money to see them, and the organizers couldn’t even give them 2 hours to perform. It was such a disappointment. And then they wouldn’t get off the stage. We paid to see junoon, not the organizers getting up on the stage and making videos of themselves on stage with the band while they are performing! Junoon came in 2019 and the concert was amazingly done. They performed for 2 hours and we thoroughly enjoyed it
Junoon were amazing! Worth every penny and will do it all over again. The Sponsor talk for almost an hour was completely unnecessary and didn't seem professional. If they are to bring back Junoon again, which I hope they sincerely do, please have less time allocated to other bands and sponsors and let them perform for a longer period. Very memorable night.
I really wasn't sure, have been watching them do concerts since 2001. I wasn't going to go on this one, but my wife was interested this time around. I didn't have high expectations, boy was I wrong. It's been two days since the concert, we both are still feeling high. No one owns the stage like Junoon, NO ONE. True rock stars, the crowd at the front was going crazy, it's like everyone there dancing was having a moment, loved it soooo much, can't describe the feeling. They are still the same as I always remembered them. Just wow! Don't ever miss their concert if you get a chance, and make sure you get up and enjoy on the floor, or really just stay home.
Amazing arrangement. Spectacular security. Despite the crazy crowd the staff was patient and polite. Lot of thanks to Cathy for allowing the concert to go beyond 11pm. Relived and Made memories with junoon concert that will last another 15yrs.
Good sound. Good crowd. Sold out packed concert. Excellent concert. We had really good seats so we enjoyed the entire show from start to finish! No one rocks like Junoon!
Bad sound quality and poor seating arrangements Everyone from the seats were at the floor with no check
Oh gosh, not just me I saw everyone around me on their feet the entire time. One of the best concerts I've ever attended. Can't wait for them to come back to Toronto.
parking could have been managed much better and who and why designed to have everyone in one way direction to the end of the parking to enter through one spot only and what is the point of concrete blocks dividing parking into further small sections?? This caused deliberate delay and trouble by whoever was managing it and off coarse without any reason...... may be they can learn from malls parking lots where they manage every day and I have never seen this layout or plan there.
It was a great venue except for the small screen. People who are far can't get a good look. The concert was awesome with lots of energy and great sound all around.
Fantastic performance. Full of energy, passion and enthusiasm. Junoon rocked it!
After all these decades their energy remains unbridled. It was my first opportunity to take my kids for a Pakistani concert, and Junoon at that. They loved it. The nostalgia was awesome. So glad they came.
Too bad the management of CAA didn’t allow more than 30 minutes extra for the band to play.
Junoon was amazing! The show was great. Time just flew by. Only criticism would be that the sound system wasn't great but that is obviously not Junoon's fault.
We had an incredible time at the concert! I’d go again in a heartbeat!
