I selected this event as my husband and I love music, and it was his birthday.

Parking -If you dont get there early (to find a park close to the event) then you have to park in one of the lots. The lot directly across the street (across from "will call") was very convenient, and affordable ($10). You can also park farther away in other lots and pay less ($5 -$8) however, you will have some walking to do.
Theatre-The Paramount is still nice, the seats are relatively comfortable and for the most part you can see pretty well. The venue is older, but just fine.
Master of Ceremonies -Nickki Thomas, was funny, and kept the show moving. There were technical difficulties, (sound system, lighting) but she handled them well.

Music -The children's concert (opening act) was cute. The Gospel Choir was very good, but only sang 2 songs. Even the kids sang 3? Tuck and Patti were excellent. And Jennifer Holiday was outstanding!

This was an inspiration, music and words that further the realization of living the Life that
Dr. King contemplated, the life that he lived must also be the life we Live,
....walking that walk, speaking truth to power and always operating from an inward
experience of Universal Love for one's self and for humanity,
Heaven is here and now if we want it to be and, the ambassador of Peace, Prem Rawat,
in the tradition of MLK, speaks of the power of love and the Knowledge of the self as the most powerful and liberating force that can bring peace and prosperity to all.
Such is the Ghandi/Howard Thurman-nspired legacy of MLK, may the memory of his good work inspire us all to look within

The Paramount is one of the most amazing buildings I have ever been in. It is simply magnificant. Just marveling at all of its Art Deco glory would have made the event worth it for this aspect alone. The short movie clips of MLK Jr. that were played intermittently throughout the evening were so inspiring and allowed me to actually feel MLK Jr.'s energy. To see how someone inspired people to risk jail or give thier lives for a cause is remarkable and to understand the peaceful, loving methods that were the basis for the cause, was astounding. The audience was great too. It was practically an interactive evening with folks calling out their praise for the performers. Living Jazz puts on this event and many worthy others, including Jazz Camp West that my son attends during the summer in the forests of La Honda. This is the second year I have attended the MLK Jr. Tribute with my teenage son. I look forward to many more celebrations like this.

I had no idea that I would be sittting through 3 longs hours of a tribute show. I wanted to see Jennifer Holliday, but had to wait until the last hour for her to take the stage. The local acts were okay, but they all didn't need to perform as long as they did...I probably won't go back next year.

The soaring exuberance of those voices and their sheer joy of performing left such a wonderful feeling that lasted long after the event. I definitely am glad I went. Tuck and Patty were so soulful, it was magical when she sang Bring a little Heaven right here.

After many years of waiting to see this incredible talent, I finally had a chance to hear Jennifer Holliday sing live. She has an incredible instrument that deserves more attention than producers have given her. Her voice is still incredible and deserves to be recorded compared to the sound being placed on most CDs today. My only concern is that she didn't have a live band backing her up, but this can be attributed to the fact she isn't getting produced by the music industry and the cost this would present. I applaud her for continuing to bring her music to her fans. Her chats between the songs made the performance very personable. It was a very memorable evening!

The show was fabulous, it was very intimate her sharing her life story in between songs. My husband is not familiar with her music nor her career, his consistent comment was "she has some powerful lungs"

I did not like the show at all. I think that I wasted my money and was not prepared for standing through an entire performance. I guess I just did not understand what Row 101 seat E meant. I know that I will not be attending any other performances that are standing room only at Harrahs or any other venue.
