I have loved Glen Campbell for years, this is the first time that I have seen him in person, and I would definitely see him again. I never missed the Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour on television. He is a wonderful entertainer.

More guitar playing this year, and that was also excellent.

Glen was absolutely great. His voice had the full range from Baritone to high Tenor that we have come to love. His band was really cooking. The thing about this concert is unlike many others, they are playing arrangements, not just winging it. Every note was written by his great arranger and composer, T.J. Kuenster who plays keyboards.
The guitarists are reading music. Sure, there are some looser moments and of course Glen ad libs all his great guitar solos, but by and large it was written and practiced to get it perfect. Glen is sociable with the audience but does tend to repeat himself "It sure is great being here" was heard about a dozen times. At the end when he was introducing the band, he kept asking people their names. I don't know if that was a joke.
The sound at the Grove in Anaheim is always really good. The place was essentially full on a Friday night. Of course, many older people who remembered Glen from the TV show days, but lots of younger ones also.
He did the Lone Ranger piece with the guitar balanced on his head for the ending and it is amazing to watch live.
All the classics were performed, and also many of the covers from the new album. "Sing", the "Walls" song by Tom Petty, "Good riddance" by Green Day.
To bad he didn't do "These Days" by Jackson Browne.
All and all, a very enjoyable evening. The opening act was just O.K.

He is still a talented performer. I can only fault him on his need to read the words on a teleprompter. But we all get older. He is still great.

What a talent. Fabulous, tight, backing band and great acoustics at The Grove in Anaheim.
What drew me & my wife was not the GC of old, but his new (2008) album "Meet Glen Cambpell. Near-perfect renditions of recent great songs from a variety of artists (Foo Fighters, Green Day, etc) These songs sounded better live than on the CD. The old stuff (Jimmy Webb's classics) were dead-on and GC's voice/range was amazing.

Fun too, were GC's "quirkiness". He kept said "It's great to be here" over and over and how good he felt. The band often kicked in to stop his rambling - too cute! His daughter singing solo was "OK" and needs to lose the Fleetwood Mac cover.
Go see Glen Campbell!

My lifelong dream has been fulfilled after seeing Glen Campbell in concert!
Glen Campbell is still my Rhinestone Cowboy. I used to watch him on t.v. when I was a little girl and my mom used to let me stay up and watch. I had tears in my eyes as he took the stage. When he performed "By the time I get to Phoenix" he told the story of when he first heard the song, he felt so homesick he had to drive all the way home. Even my husband liked the performance. Glen Campbell's guitar playing was amazing! He's still got it and more! It was most excellent!!!!!

Other than using a teleprompter to assist with songs that he did not make famous himself, Glen still proves he can power through songs. Even at his increasing age, he can stil hit the high notes, including a little yodeling, and actually sing the songs instead of speaking/singing as some aging stars (Neil Diamond/Willie Nelson) are doing. His set was packed with his famous songs like Rhinestone Cowboy in which the audience participated whole heartedly, Witchita Lineman, Galveston etc. He even did a couple tribute songs from the Rightous Brothers and Everly Brothers. His daughters sang great backup and his lead guitarist and steel guitarist were really awsome. A perfect smaller venue to relax and enjoy a true country icon.

I wasn't familiar with all of his work except for "the Rhinestone cowboy, until I saw him on PBS which led me to want to come see him. It was worth it to me. I love his music and his voice at his age is still the same. He was in great shape and when he played his guitars....his hands moved so swiftly and so gracefully. He was funny and very down to earth up on stage.

The show was great in every aspect. Glen Campbell is still one of the most talented and riveting performers around today. He started with songs from the new album. These are songs from modern artists like U2,Foo Fighters, Green Day and more. He then did some of his classic hits. Old or new the songs are always very well written songs. His band was tight and his singing was better than ever. He showed off his diverse talents with his great lead guitar work and some impressive instrumentals. And finally he had a few surprises like the best rendition of a Hank Williams' song I ever heard.

I don't know what I was expection when I went to see Glen Campbell last night, but he still has a great voice, fantastic guitar skills and a stage presence that draws you in. He played all his classics plus a few contemporary covers. I guess I never really appreciated the range of his vocals. I left wanting more. I think I will have to repurchase "Gentle On My Mind" ... probably today!

Glen was amazing! He still sounded great and looked awesome. He included some of he favorite new artists U2 and Foo Fighters for great renditions of their hits. Glen had he's grown with him to song background and he band was tight. Glen did the best Elvis impersonation I ever heard! He nailed the king! I took a friend who wasn't familiar with his music and she was hooked by the end of the night! I was a nice walk down memory lane from talking about John Wayne to his TV show! A true legend!

Of all the 60s singers I've seen in this decade, Campbell (and Al Jardine) are the only ones who still have their full range, power, expressiveness. Campbell was jolly, friendly, charming, picked a delightful set of songs both classic and new, and still has that amazing voice (and guitar picking skills) of the mighty Glen Campbell at his best.

The Grove venue has great sound and great sight lines.

Glen played a balanced mix of songs off his latest CD--"Meet Glen Campbell"--and his classics, including "Rhinestone Cowboy", "Gentle on My Mind", and "Southern Nights". Who'd have thought that his version of the Foo Fighters' "Times Like These" would sound as comfortable and strong as "Rhinestone Cowboy"? During the show we learned that his two backup singers were his daughters, one of whom--Debbie--was featured for a couple of songs on her own, including a great version of the Fleetwood Mac hit, "You Make Loving Fun". Glen then came out and sang a couple of songs with her in tribute to "Johnny and June". The highpoint of the evening, though was when he played an amazing version of "The Wiliiam Tell Overture", which nicely showed off his guitar ability.

Glen endears you to his history of country/pop music hits in a delightful manner nostalgically travelling down fond memory lanes of toe-tapping joy of more simple years gone by. Studio musician turned soloist, Glen Campbell & writer Jimmy Webb created a haunting sonic palette & repertoire heard on both AM & FM radios throughout the USA. It's truly undeniable how infectious Glen's singing and extraordinary guitar playing can be. I told Glen in his theater in Branson. Mo, face-to-face, that I used to sing his golden hits in my collegiate alma mater's coffeee shop on weekends which met with tremendous enthusiasm. He beamed his Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour' smile declaring his gratitude for having chosen his work to perform for my classmates. It was my honor to meet this country/pop genre icon and my pleasure to share my memories.
You'd have to travel far and wide to beat the fun, warmth and depth-of-character you will experience at a Glen Campbell, ( along with his lovely daughter, Deb' ), performance. If Glen Campbell is in your area, go to the show! 'Nuff said.
