Celtic Woman Detroit reviews
Celtic Woman was great, the venue needs work.
Celtic Woman was amazing and beyond what we expected, I will see them again if they come to town. The Morrison Center needs to get it together, they sent out at least 5 notices about restrictions/rules while at the event. They had limitations on the size of bag that could come in, people brought in large bags and we saw backpacks. No food or drink from outside of the venue, not enforced. If your late you'll be seated where the usher wants to seat you, didn't happen. No filming or taking photos of the performers, the first two rows had their cameras out most of the time, the lights from the phones distracted. The ushers kept coming in and out of their doors letting light in. If you're going to email the "rules" out that much, enforce them or maybe don't send the multiple emails out.
Beautiful Voices Overwhelmed by Instruments
If I had paid to listen to drums, I would have been in Heaven. I did pay to listen to the voices of the women in Celtic Woman but the person running the equalizer board chose to emphasize the instruments. Perhaps the venue should have someone at the board to argue in favor of what the visitors want in comparison to what the performers want.
After intermission the performances left out the instruments from time to time and the voices were great. The performance of Amazing Grace was outstanding, perhaps among the five best stage moments in my experience.
The staff at the Appleton PAC were great to work with in overcoming the shortcomings of Ticketmaster in making sure we had the tickets we ordered.
Excellent show.
I was unwilling to see the show myself. I had bought the tickets in early 2020 as a present for my wife. She passed away last year so I gave the tickets to a couple that appreciates this sort of thing.
They were very pleased with the performance as a whole. The singing, dancing and general production were top notch. Only one improvement was suggested. They thought that the volume of the instrumentals sometimes overpowered the singing of the ladies. It wasn't so much that it ruined the show by any means, but an adjustment from the sound department would have been appreciated. Nevertheless, they had a great time and would recommend the show to anyone so inclined.
Expectations
The concert was good I enjoyed it, however I was a little disappointed that they didn't have some of their own songs within the concert. I understand it's close to the holidays and they're trying to appease their fans with Christmas songs, but it would have been nice to have Christmas songs and then some other songs not just all Christmas songs. I was going to the concert so I can listen to their music not listen to Christmas music that I could have easily listen to on the radio. And again they were awesome and I liked it, I just wish they had their own music in that concert and not have it all Christmas songs.
