I've seen Smokey in concert many times and I think this was his best yet. Oldies, and new ones, his voice is like butter. He is an great showman. I look forward to the next time I see him.
Still has the chops . Enjoyable performance and play most of his hits.
It was somewhere in the west coast of Scotland. I was taken to see Smokey as a 14th birthday gift from my uncle Dougie, I was going anyway, but this would be the first time I didn't have to sneak in the back door to see a show! (West Coast of Scotland 1967- we were poor, what ya gonna do?) So, The Miracles electric slide on to the stage, I never took my ears or eyes of Smokey for the whole wonderful show. On our way home I told my uncle that's what I'm "gonni dai" (Going to do), Sure yi are? That wid (would) be a F@%^$**ng Miracle. Skip to Toronto June 28th, 55 years later. I am still learning at the feet of the Master Of Motown. God bless you Billy for doing the best Toronto show of the year on my birthday. (I call him Billy so folks will think we're mates!).
Great time, albeit short show...awesome Motown classics!!
What a great night! Smokey's voice and manner was smooth and golden. He sure knows how to work the room - he charmed the audience by telling stories, and flirting with a woman sitting in the front row and teasing her husband. He even did a little dancing. He was warm and friendly and it seemed he really enjoyed singing all those great old songs. As part of his encore Smokey encouraged one side of the auditorium to sing a line from Cruisin' louder than the other side. The crowd was crazy (in a fun way)! It was a great night to remember.
You would never believe Smokey is in his eighties. His voice is still amazing and he has an endless amount of energy. Just wish the show was longer. It was fantastic!!!
So wonderful to see Smokey still rockinā at the age of 82! Happy that he played so many of the songs I am familiar with plus a couple of others. What a FABULOUS voice and great personality! He is one of my musical heroes! I wouldāve loved the show to go on longer but Iām so glad I got to see him in person! Thank you!
Enjoyable show , just not long enough. We need more Smokey
The show was great very entertaining and sexy. I love you Smokey..
One of the most influential music icons touring today. Smokey put on a great show. He still has the beautiful vocal chops and is a great entertainer. Very engaging with the audience. It was a memorable night.
I always wanted to see a legend in person and Smokey was it. It was along time coming since Covid. We truly enjoyed the whole show. I would he liked a t-shirt tho. It was FABULOUS !
Wonderful...wonderful sound...wonderful show. Impressive. Thanks!
Amazing wish he'd done an encore. Smokey rules at 82, an inspiration.
I had a great experience listening to Smokey and his band. His showmanship was over the top great. My only problem is, most times the band was louder than his vocals.
We knew it was going to be good, but it was great/better than expected. Couldn't get over his energy and he still has 'it'! Not kidding, this was a fantastic show and we got out of our comfort zone since the pandemic hit, to go to this first in-person show. We were so glad we went - it was so worth it! Not only did he do his songs but also the 4 Tops and Stevie Wonder - it was wonderful.
Wow! Went with two other friends to celebrate a big birthday, all of us 55+ years Smokey fans. We were expecting Smokey to be "shored up" by back up singers, band solos, etc. - which would have been understandable for an 82 year old dude - but we were wrong! He was absolutely amazing! The trim, fit look, (and the gold suit - WOW!), the showmanship and his voice - INSPIRATIONAL! Even crouching down to chat with people in the front rows with no effort at all - the man is amazing and we had a blast. The singalong was so fun and the young woman on our right was a perfect choice. We actually met her in the huge line around the ladies room and someone asked if Smokey smelled as good as he looks. She said she licked his ear and he tasted even better. She had everyone in stitches and all us old dolls wanting to sing "Ooo ooo ooo, Baby, Baby". Come again soon, Smokey!
The concert was fantastic! Great venue and location. Parking can be difficult to find. Show started right on time and Smokey did not disappoint. He was amazing. I could not stop moving in my seat and singing all of his songs. He was interactive with the audience which was great. Loved, loved this concertššš½
Meridian Hall has good accoustics and Smokey sounds as good as he did 50 years ago. Smokey really connects with the audience ...I felt like I was with friends even tho I went alone. It was a fun concert!
Heās 82 years young! And acts, sings and dances like heās less than half his age! Treated to a great collection of hits spanning his historic career and the opportunity to see a real professional craft a rapport with the audience!! 5*
