Rhiannon Giddens Louisville reviews
Disappointed
"I wasn’t really that impressed. The vocals were overpowered by all the noise a lot of times. My seats were so close to the actual sound system that I literally moved and went far away. A lot of noise, the bass was cranking. Depressing tunes in between the hits. He tried to fill the show with entertainment. It just seemed like it was a stretched out show to try to fill the time and I just simply was not impressed. I give the show a 7 out of 10. The most entertaining concert that I’ve ever been to was Coldplay at Soldier Field. That was a 10 out of 10. That fell far short."
