I saw George Michael's concert on Sunday night in Phoenix. He was FANTASTIC! What a performer and what a voice! I live in Los Angeles, and flew out to see the concert.
He has such energy, such passion for his music and he put on one hell of a show. He was nonstop for 2 & 1/2 hours. It was virtually all of his hits - "Too Funky," "I'm Your Man," "Amazing," "Father Figure," Kissing A Fool," "One More Try," "Freedom," "Careless Whisper," "Everything She Wants," and others. He had 6 backup singers/dancers - 4 gals and 2 guys. He was so giving in terms of being appreciative to the audience.
The crowd at The US Airways Arena was on their feet for virtually the entire show. People cheering, screaming, whistling, and clapping. Security was in full force with regards to people taking pics with their cell phones and cameras. Been to a lot of concerts, and that was a first.

I'd love to meet George. Anyone know what parking lot he's sleeping in?
Was wondering how long before some fool went that way.
My friend was really nervous about his ticket once he saw that dreadful performance he gave on American Idol. it's good to know the tour is not indicative of that. I'll be sure and let my friend know.
Thanks!

Thanks for the link to the Phoenix review. Yes, it was an amazing night!
Does anyone open for him?
No, there is no Opening Act or anything like that. Dame, I tried to PM you, but you are blocked.
Where are your seats for tomorrow night? My seat in Phoenix, was the closet section to the stage, on the side - 8 rows from the floor, right on the aisle. It was a fantastic seat!
We got the cheap seats. We are seeing so many concerts this summer .. this was one we opted not to spend a lot of money on.

I'm seeing him in July!
He was an absolute trainwreck on American Idol, so I'm glad to hear he was good when you saw him. I'm looking forward to the show. I loved Wham! Loved solo George, too.
When he's "on", dude's got one of the best voices in the biznezz.
