Diana Krall Tickets

Okay but not memorable

I was a bit disappointed, I hoped to hear her sing and play but each member of the backup band usually played long solos, taking up much of the evening.

Diana Krall @ Smart Financial Centre

This was a great concert and I enjoyed it thoroughly. The venue is very nice (my first time there). It is very clean and well maintained, lots of food and drink options available, plenty of parking, etc. The concert started 15 minutes late. I enjoyed all the music, but I really wanted to hear her sing more than anything else. All the musicians are fantastic, but I don't think it was necessary to have each musician (bassist, drummer, guitar, violin) do an extended solo on almost every song.

A Tad disappointing

Outstanding performance by the Grammy winning artist, BUT the show did not live up to expectations in terms of promoting the current album. Dubbed "the Wallflower Tour," only four tracks from the latest release were performed during the show. Ms. Krall was in TOP FORM, and she had assembled a powerhouse band, but the overemphasis on OLDER material was a definite minus. The crowd reaction to "California Dreaming," Jim Croce's "Operator" and "Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word" should have clued her in to how EXCITED most of us were to hear NEW MATERIAL. The reinterpretation of Tom Waits' "Temptation" was overlong, and I noticed many of my neighbors fidgeting in their seats or playing with their smartphones. After the show, my party agreed Temptation could have been scrapped and replaced with a tight medley of tunes from the current album.

Too quiet for this rocknroller

Diana Krall is an excellent musician and her band is top rate too but for someone more used to the intensity of rock n roll her quiet music was putting me to sleep. The audience was enjoying it and she is very good at what she does,I'm just used to more adrenilene at my concerts
