Gladys Knight Tucson reviews
Queen/Adam Lambert Concert 8/23/19
The concert was entertaining overall, but for those of us who couldn't secure better seats, using the other larger screens would have been better. We couldn't understand anything the performers said when they spoke to the crowd, although the acoustics were fine for the songs. When the big screen was used, we could see okay, but when it wasn't, we couldn't see well at all. It was not the best show I've attended for the customers who were seated in the 2nd level directly beside the stage. The stage and screens were set up to perform for the patrons facing the front of the stage much more than those on the sides, and we weren't even in the section furthest behind/beside the stage. Not sure if the venue or the band chose not to use the big screens for all of the songs or even use the Spectrum Center's ceiling-mounted monitors. Good show over all though.
