I liked the venue. Close enough walk to and from Grand Central Station. Chris Kirkpatrick and O-Town were great. The food was good but we had to ask for forks several times and ate salad with our hands and eventually was able to eat the chicken cutlet and greens. I liked where we sat for our VIP seating.
My first time going to a Pop 2000 Tour. I went because Chris Kirkpatrick of *NSYNC was in it. O-Town was incredible. I like that the Sony Hall had seating and conveniently located a few blocks from Grand Central Station which allow us to take Metro North from the suburbs. I saw past tour shows on social media and knew what to expect. I was hoping for a surprise appearance from another *NSYNC member but there wasn't and that's ok. I also liked that the venue offered food although we ate most of our food with no forks which came out late after we asked for cutlery when we were served our non-finger food (salad, chicken, cooked veggies) considering we got there early when doors opened because no assigned seating but there was an assigned section. I hope to see more *NSYNC member performances in the tri-state area, at ticket prices within my financial reach, I bought 2 VIP seating tix and I thought the price was fair.
Brad williams was incredible as always not a complaint about him or his opening act who was also very funny. The problem is sony hall and there general admission and standing when the seats are all gone policy. How about u greedy asshole not sell more seats then u have or get enough seats. Its hard to stand for 2 hours and enjoy a show. So Brad Williams 5 stars will see again just not at sony hall who gets 0 stars.
Avery Sunshine 6/3/23 Sony Hall NYC-
I've seen the greatest female R&B singers live EVER- Aretha, Patti, Chaka, Diana, Gladys, Tina, Stephanie Mills, Millie Jackson, Teena Marie, Ledisi, Ruth Brown, LaVern Baker, etc. and I am telling you- and I'm jaded- Avery Sunshine could hold her own with all of them.
This woman just comes out and kills every time you see her live. A joyful noise, if you will. With her husband on guitar, son on drums, and a topnotch bass player named Detox out of Atlanta, this is a true indie music powerhouse whose set flows seamlessly from her own poignant songs to rousing covers that she makes her own to blow the roof off the place gospel in an hour 35-minute set.
That the joint was only 2/3 filled on a Saturday is criminal; she is still a talent deserving wider exposure, if you will.
Simply put, you'll walk out happier than when you walked in after one of her shows. I just love Avery Sunshine, whose name is ever so fitting; she's like a ray of sunshine that just lifts you up and sends you back out into the night happy.
Tye was amazing and the concert was anointed. I was only there for two hours but appreciated his energy, his creativity and the Word he provided in between song selections. Definitely one of the best concerts I have ever attended. My only wish was that it started earlier as there was a two hour gap between when doors opened to when the show started. And for those of us standing, it was a little rough lol. But Tye is phenomenal and I will see him anytime he visits my city.
The legend Roy Ayers graced us with 2 classics before GZA came on and did his thing. Big Daddy Kane came in the middle of his set and did a few songs as well. All the performers kept us entertained. Overall, it was a great night of music in the greatest city in the world!
The show was awesome and intimate. Marc sure does know how to keep the fans engaged. Loved every bit of it! What is really cool is that Marc was outside the venue talking to some fans before the show so I took a picture of them. I didn’t have the nerve to ask him to take a picture with us though. Darn! He’s so cool and down to earth! We met some people really awesome people while waiting in line to get in. We got there early (the first ones) and it made the waiting go so fast. I loved it!
The Ardmore Music Hall bathroom was clean, service at the bar was good as well. I’m just glad we had balcony seats (the view was great). I wouldn’t want general admission because I wouldn’t have been able to stand for that long during the concert but they did get extra attention.
I would definitely like to go to another concert of his next time he’s in the surrounding area (we traveled 1 1/2 hours to get there).
The Winery Dogs are the best band/talent out there today. Show was amazing!
Have been to Sony Hall a few times in the past: Nice Venue! Attached is a photo taken at the show of Richie Kotzen, guitarist and lead singer of The Winery Dogs.
This was my first time attending the Sony music Hall. It was a most wonderful experience. The venue was beautiful and gave an old classic 1920s or 30s jazz club vibe. The blue lights and the strobes set the mood. The hall was intimate yet spacious enough for there to be room for everyone to enjoy themselves I had a VIP table right next to the stage where I could be up close and personal with Eric. I took a lot of pictures and Eric was a class act as always. Super talented super funny and down to earth he made the audience feel comfortable and laugh all night long as well as sing along to his greatest hits. There was also a highlight in the show where he chose a couple of the audience to come up on stage and play a game on Simon says. When he gave the command Simon says turn around to the young lady, while her back was turned her boyfriend was behind her on one knee with an engagement ring. She turned around and he proposed to her in front of hundreds. It was so emotional. There wasn't a dry eye in the house. Thankfully she said yes. I will come to this Hall again in a heartbeat. The food is a little on the pricey side but other than that it was a perfect evening.
This concert was a night to remember. Thank you taimane for the best night my family and I loved it! Most of all thanks for taking me backstage to jam with you, the friendship between student & teacher 😊 I can’t wait to see you again!
Amazing!! I had a blast and will was so funny and just awesome! I would definitely go back in time just to experience it all over again. It was such a nice crowd and everyone that was on stage during the event was so talented and awesome.
All the years I've been going to see BBVD I can honestly say I've never seen a bad show, not even a mediocre one. Their always high energy, great music that will get the heaviest of wallflowers to tap their feet. Sony Hall seems to be a perfect fit for thier NYC home .. As BB Kings is now closed for good. You wanna experience pure happiness? Go see these guys
I've never left a band review before but if I'm going to leave one it's for LA Guns. This band is still kicking ass. I've seen them a million times over the years and every show is great. Loud music, great energy. I need eleven stars to properly rate.
Best night of my life, her show was the only break I had from the pain I was going through at that moment i felt happy, when she played my favorite song jupiter I cried! meeting her was the best wonderful food and stuff at the concert i’d definitely see her again! I met her as well after a year of waiting

Went and saw Ghost Light for my first time right after getting out of a Phish show at MSG. I didn't think another band could blow me away that night, and boy was I very wrong. I would go see them again, for sure!
It’s been 5 years since I saw Dom and was extremely excited to see him. He performed classic from the Yellow Album , From the Westside with Love Pt II , Get Home Safely and the new album. His set was short and the venue was pretty empty. He did have good energy performing , and I had fun overall.
Great show from an amazing guitar player. Sony Hall is not very big, so we sit down really close and had a great view. Ah Via Musicon is my favorite album from EJ and it was awesome to see him play it in its entirety.
