What an awesome experience it was for me to finally see Gino Vannelli in concert. I have been wanting to see him on my bucket list since the 70s. I finally was able to see him, and he sounded even better that he sounded years ago on his records and cd's. He was very friendly and kept the audience captivated by his soft, smooth, powerful voice. It is an experience that I will NEVER forget. If you get a chance to see Gino Vannelli in concert, get your ticket before the concert is sold out. You will regret it if you miss him. Thank you, Gino Vannelli, for making my wish and dreams come true!

Gino has an impeccable voice and sings with depth. He has an unbelievable range and can hit high octaves. He does it all: a composer, musician, vocalist, and overall showman. I haven’t seen an artist to be able to do this ever and I’ve seen many since the 70’s. . He raises the bar along with his outstanding band and no other musical group can compete.
He puts so much energy into his show by conducting his other musicians along with many smooth dance moves. Seeing Gino is truly an inspiration.

An exceptional five-star night! Gino and the band knocked it out of the park again! Gino’s voice was perfect. Ross consistently produces the impeccable sound. Patrick, Jay, David, Reinhard, Damian, and the other band members made a difference! They are all humble and friendly people!

Great concert. Gino’s voice has depth and precision . Every note /word is so accurate and
soulful. Beautiful delivery, and a truly great showman. He loves performing and connects with his audience.
The band is so tight and enjoying every moment on stage. Each member blend their style so well.
I haven’t listened to a band that encompasses such talent and instrumental ability. Fantastic.

Gino and his band put on an amazing show.
When they perform the sound is fantastic all put together by his brother Ross on the controls.
Ginos voice and stage presence is total perfection.
During his shows when he speaks to his audience confirms what an amazing man he is.
Wishing Gino, Ross and his band safe travels.

Gino Vannelli was just awesome as usual! This was the 3rd but not the last concert I would have the pleasure of attending as many times as I possibly can. I just loved it! Gino NEVER DISAPPOINTS- Ever !

The food! The show! Everything was fantastic! I can't remember when I've had such a good time at a venue. The staff was excellent and the food was perfection. I hope Gino comes back to Andiamo because - I guess I'm spoiled - I want to come back to Michigan to see the show there again!

Le son était parfait, choix des chansons excellente, musiciens virtuoses, sympathique et drôle (histoire avion) et touchant (sa mère).
Toutefois malgré le fait que de parler de l'histoire de votre cousin homosexuel ètait très pertinent et touchant, j'ai trouvé très malaisant l'échange avec m. Huet, vulgaire même, pourtant moi même je fait parfois des blagues osées. Ça n'avait pas sa place dans le contexte d'un concert symphonique. Et non ce n'est pas du snobisme juste un manque d'élégance.
Votre voix est toujours aussi belle, falseta parfaite comme il y a 45 ans.
Votre album brothers to brothers fut mon premier album acheté avec l'argent de mon premier emploi, dans mon premier logement. Merci pour tous ses moments musicaux avec vous.
Je vous souhaite les prochaines années en santé en compagnie de votre tricia.
Merci, merci!

Gino was amazing - as always. He is an extremely, gifted artist and person.
His voice is clear, strong and beautiful. He has a rockin band who blend so well with him.
I try to see him perform as many times as possible. He gives over 100% at every show and his talent just blows you away. The concert was absolutely great!
However, I did not like the venue where he performed this time. Carnegie Music Hall of Homestead is in great need of being updated. It is a shame. They expect people to sit in these hard, very uncomfortable seats that are over 100 years old. The hall is severely out dated.
Pittsburgh should be ashamed to host concerts there. Secondly, the promoter of the show, had a very bad opening act. Gino never needs an opening act! This was such a waste of time sitting through a poor performance before Gino came on stage, sitting in a very uncomfortable seat.
Gino, yes a thousand times. Negative for the concert hall.

Sexy as hell. Smooth sound with all the songs. He has so much energy, his band, great as they are, needing more Gino energy. Exception being one sax player and singer. Will go to every show he comes near Maryland. 2nd in 5 years and he got a better stage and we got a better show.

Fantastic show by Gino and his spectacular band! I have always loved his music and voice and had only seen him in big arenas and wasnt sure how his big sound was going to reproduce in a small venue- Gino delivered way beyond my expectations! Thank you Gino for making my heart sing 💕

MR. GINO VANNELLI was in fine form !! He did not miss a note and his voice was as smooth as ever !! He has really taken care of his voice and himself !! His band was tight and the sound in the Ludlow Garage was great again !!
The ONLY negative of the concert was it seems that the guitar player always tried to bring attention to himself by raising the head of his guitar up when he took a solo as to say, look at me. He played well but, at that level you shouldn't have to bring attention to yourself on every guitar solo that you take. Plus, the guitar player has to realize who the star of the show is and MR. VANNELLI was certainly that !! MR. VANNELLI also had great stories and a fun sense of humor which added to a a set full of his hits and recent releases !!
After forty six years as a fan it is great to say I have finally seen MR. GINO VANNELLI live in concert !!!!

Whoever that singer was fronting for that fantastic drummer, he was pretty darn good. If the singer sticks with it, he just might have a career in front of him.
This is the third time I have seen Gino, going all the way back to the Stevie Wonder show at the Gardens that Gino talked about, and he is great each time. I have been playing drums for 57 years and this drummer was GREAT! Didn’t catch his name because the sound was too muffled. (See Below).
Whoever runs the house sound board should be shot and then run out of town and then shot again. Every time I have seen an act here the sound has been terrible. Overdriven bass and horrible vocals. Completely muddled to the point of not being able to understand the lyrics. Gino deserves better. If the sound man was an in house hire, then he needs to be fired. If he was touring with the band then they need a more in depth sound check.
I will probably never return to this venue again and I will be sure to tell everyone I know that the show is ruined by the sound man.
Giving a rating of 4 stars because the show was good, but can’t abide the sound.

Never ever ceases to amaze and we have seen him in concert many times over the years. Gino's voice is as pure today as it was 40 years ago. None of that auto tune / pitch correction / processing needed that so many currently use.
Not to mention his band is composed of virtuoso musicians at the top of their game. His brother Ross is also a master live front of house mixing engineer, and the sound was perfect as always. Highly recommended "don't miss" concert experience.

Love, love, love Gino! His voice is still so amazing and his band is fantastic. The Saban Theatre is the perfect size and charming. Parking is conveniently close and very reasonably priced…especially compared to the thieving Forum.
My only complaint is that Gino Vannelli’s engineer could have/should have done a much better job blending treble, bass, and volume for Gino’s voice and the band.
Definitely will see go to the Saban again.

I’ve seen Gino four times. We were at the Saban Theater last night, Sept 1. I’d say he was good….not great. Too bad he doesn’t do 2 hours…..especially after I drove 3.5 hours to see him. He still has a strong voice and I love his music. On a scale of 1-10, I’d say it was a 7.5.

Finally the long-delayed (by covid) and much-anticipated concert at the Capitol Theatre yesterday evening, Mar 3/23. Seems Gino's voice is as good as it ever was. Sang most of his big hits (except, unfortunately, Black Cars). Was accompanied by an 8 or 9 person band, which was too loud for the venue as it frequently drowned him out. Gino introduced Brett Miller, a Florida musician who appeared as a back-up singer (perfectly complementing Gino's) who also sang a verse of a beautiful song I believe he wrote. He is someone to watch. @brettmillerlive on Instagram

Great show! Great catering by Little Italy’s own RoVino restaurant! Gino V. still has a gorgeous voice and his band was great. Played a mix of new music and classic pieces, came back for one encore to play two fan favorites from the 70’s YES! He graciously stayed after the show to autograph items for the attendees, and he also stood with us for photos. We made sure to bring a couple of our favorite albums from the 79’s for him to sign - So fun!
San Diego, CA@Amici Park
Simply one of the best shows I have ever attended. The sound quality was outstanding and the band was incredible. As a drummer I was in awe of the fact the band literally never missed a beat! My wife and I can’t stop talking about it and the kids keep asking why we are now constantly playing Gino’s music!!!!
