Encore
we enjoyed loverboy alot first time i seen them in concert and it was a very enjoyable night the songs were great the band souded just like there cd everyone was singing and dance it was really great . hope to see them again when they come to town . they looked really good on stage
The show was good. The band sounded great and played all their old hits, and even some of their "newer" hits. My only complaint is that it was maybe a little too loud. I have been to many shows at this venue and none have been as loud as this one. Luckily a friend had some earplugs, so I enjoyed the show in a slightly muffled fashion. Thanks for the show, it was a great way to spend my birthday!
After all these years Loverboy still has it. I thoroughly enjoyed the concert. I had never seem them live before and they didn't disappoint.
Mike Rene still has the cords! He has a great sense of humor and doesn't seem to take himself too seriously. The band is greater than expected. Just like a fine wine, they are better with age. This is my third time seeing them here in Winnpeg and I would definately see them again and again. Great Entertainers.
Very pleased with the show, all around entertaining, great performance, makes you wish you had seen them 30 years ago. !!!!!!
Overall these guys were great! Mike sure has an awesome voice. They put some newer bands we have out there to shame. The sound was phenomenal. The price was great and the small venue made it more intimate.
They did a great job... really enjoyed the solos, particularly those of the bassist, drummer and keyboardist (loved the latter's sax solo too)... ... the only thing that disappointed me was that Kenny Shields of Streetheart, who was in the audience, didn't come up to play "Under my Thumb" as he did the last time Loverboy played in Winnipeg... that would've lead to an amazing finish and a commensurate rating for me...
This is the first time we went to a concert at the casino and it ROCKED!! Much more intimate because of the smaller area. The sound was amazing and Loveryboy played for 2 solid hours and didn't miss a beat. Looking forward to the next concert!!
This was a blast from the past that was worth the trip out. Although they don't look the same, they sounded great and Mike Reno hasn't missed a note. Would see them again - no problems.
He still has his pipes, almost (long notes were a bit difficult) but the body sure doesn't match anymore.
The show at McPhillips Casino Street Station on Friday Oct 09, 2009 was terrible! Show started late as always with Loverboy and then the sound was awful for at least the first half. You could barely hear Mike Reno singing at all because the band was so loud that they were totally drowning him out! Then there was a base feedback so loud that we all had to cover our ears so they didn't fall off. I think that the Venue sound people were responsible for the sound goofs, because when they finally got it right you could tell that Reno and Dean were really pissed-off already. It was like they hadn't bothered to do a proper sound check earlier. Then they just didn't seem to be into it anymore. Even for the encore, we weren't sure if they would even come back out, but when they did, it was for only 2 more songs which didn't even get the crowd excited. I have seen them many times before and I know what they can do, but this show was by far they're worst I have ever seen. They usually put on a great show with great sound but I think the Venue should give refunds for this one! Will not go see them again. Do a sound-check next time GUYS! Later, Incognito4u
Other than taking about 3 songs to get the sound down, the show was great! Mike's pipes are still as polished as ever and each band member is a professional artist of their own. Each song would bring you back, reminding you of just how much you really loved their music. The drum and bass solo was a great touch and Mike had a way of bringing the crowd together. We got there as a bunch of strangers going to see a classic rock band and left feeling we were at a big party with a bunch of friends. Definitely recommended!
Things started to really rock as the show progressed.Too bad they didn't play longer Lead vocals were very good and the other musicians were exceptional.
