Smokey is the Consummate Showman
Smokey Robinson was superb from beginning until end. He sang, danced, and entertained the entire audience from the moment he took stage until the minute he left. His voice remains powerful and he has the skill set that only the man that created Motown could have. This is a bucket list show for any music lover or aspiring performer. Would gladly go see him again any day.

Wow, wow, wow!
What a great entertainer! Smokey's experience and excitement is contagious. The audience was engaged, singing, clapping (and some of the ladies even crying!) and on their feet on multiple occasions. Time has not dimmed this legendary singer/songwriter whose talent shines through in every story and song.

Good to get a chance to see an Icon!!!
Show was very short. A opening act would have really been nice.

Masterful vocalist and lyricist!!!
Smokey met and exceeded my expectations. He met them because his show demonstrated that he is one of the greatest R & B vocalist and performers of all time; he exceeded them because he looks so good, is in excellent physical condition, and has the stamina of a 38 year old man. You would never believe that he is in fact 78. Truly a blessed man and gifted artist. Looking forward to seeing him perform again soon.

Awesome show!
This was my first time seeing Smokey Robinson perform live and I absolutely loved the show! His voice still sounds the same as the tracks you hear over the radio, and he even threw in some dance moves on you. His performance was worth every dollar I paid and I hope to see him again one day.
Smokey Robinson isn't just the former frontman of the Miracles, or the man behind several dozen R&B classics, or one of the key figures in the initial Motown movement. He isn’t just a National Medal of Arts award winner and an inductee in both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriter's Hall of Fame. Robinson is additionally a fantastic live musician and still a great performer, with an energy and enthusiasm that is incredible given his nearly six decades of experience in the music industry. These days, his concerts are celebratory affairs, with multiple generations of fans coming together to enjoy one of the true legends of American R&B. In epic performances that often last over two hours, Robinson sings hits from his entire career, dating back to early Miracles hits like “I Second That Emotion,” right through to newer tracks like "Don't Know Why" and "Love Bath," off his most recent album, 2009’s appropriately titled Time Flies When You're Having Fun.
From humble beginnings growing up poor in the north end of Detroit, Robinson first brought the Miracles together in 1955, at the age of just 15. Five years later, the group signed to Motown Records, and its first hit single, "Shop Around," became the young label’s first million-selling record. Another 25 hits followed for the band, including "Mickey's Monkey," "I Second That Emotion," "Baby Baby Don't Cry," and the No. 1 hit "Tears of a Clown." Robinson, then vice-president of Motown, started recording on his own, leading to hits like "A Quiet Storm," "Cruisin'," and "Just to See Her." His 2009 album Time Flies When You're Having Fun hit No. 10 on the R&B charts, and tickets continue to sell out for his concert tours, as fans await the opportunity to see this living legend.
