It was great concert and the sound in Jack Singer was excellent. Emmy even made mention of what a beautiful building it was. Her back up was excellent and we had a great time.

What a great evening - we were treated to Ms. Harris' signature angel vocals, and a small but very accomplished troupe of musicians to show them off. Buddy Miller as our 'warm up' act was a real treat - ashamed to say I didn't know his music, but will be shopping hard for more of this smooth bluesman. These two clearly have spent some time around each other - talented and respectful. Nothing fussy or over the top, they just let the music and masterful playing (vocals included) stand on their own. Loved every minute, thanks for taking it on the road for us faithful fans! Jack Singer is the perfect venue for such a high quality act!

In these times of music performance as spectacle, it is nice to have some alternatives; in this case, really fine musicians coming together to simply make really fine music. Emmylou Harris and her band provide this kind of performance, and last night those of us who were there had the opportunity to see and hear a band at play. What is wonderful about Emmylou is here incredibly familiar songlist, but more important, her's is music made by people for people -- not avitars making music for a consuming audience which themselves are commofied.

It was a great evening. Her warm-up act was very good and Emmylou even came on stage for a few songs during the warm-up! There was a break in between the warm-up and Emmylou then she came out and entertained us for 2 hours. It was awesome!

My cousin and I walked out during Emmylou's performance last night. I thought that when she came to sing during Buddy Miller's set that she had a cold or something. Emmylou was nasally, flat, & off key; most of her songs lacked creativity that differentiated one song from the next; the songs all sounded the same.

Now Buddy Miller was phenomenal! He's a great guitarist, has awesome voice, very good song writer (Julie included), funny, great at small-talk on stage, and overall a delight to my ears! I will be purchasing his CD.

Delightful to hear Emmylou Harris in person. We were impressed with Harris and the Red Dirt boys' talent. Concert was WAY over amped. Painful. More moderate amplification would result in a more real sound and a more enjoyable experience (despite the 3000 folks in the theater).

But, I think your acoustics in your auditorium are bad, bad, bad! Fortunately, I can enjoy her voice without recognizing the words.Wishing she would have played just a little more of her old stuff. Enjoy her sense of humor.

Emmylou and her Red Dirt Band were fabulous! I couldn't have asked for more and I couldn't get enough! It was more thant two hours of terrific music including new tunes and past glories.
The warm-up act, Buddy Miller, was an unexpected treat, and he stayed on to play lead guitar and sing with Emmylou.
However, the video, provided by Mystic Lake, was attrocious, especially for a venue of this caliber. The sound was too loud, as if the soundman wanted this to be a heavy-metal concert.
All in all, I would go again, but I wonder if Emmylou could get a better break elsewhere.

I have loved her music for many years (we are the same age). However, when the band played and sang, the lyrics couldn't be made out. I know what you are thinking, but my 62 year old ears work just fine, thank you! When she sang two songs with only a guitar for accompaniment, it was OK, and when she sang songs I knew, I knew what the words were, but otherwise she could have just hummed along and it would have been the same. I don't know if it was the speakers or the hall, but I expected better..

I first saw Emmylou in the late 70s when she was the warm up act for Jimmy Buffet. The buzz I'd heard about her was true. Her style made country music reached well beyond the traditional country & western audience. With the long brunette hair, she seemed vulnerable and determined to succeed.

When I saw her again, in the late eighties, she'd become one of the most respected and established country women. She was thoroughly in charge. The Hot Band was sharp but definitely remained in the background.

Last night, I saw her at Mystic Lake Casino. She's has one of the few acts that can fill an auditorium on a grey and cloudy Sunday evening. Her songs are as serious as ever, filled with heartbreak and loss. But she's loosened up, no longer as world weary earnest as she once was.

She shared the stage with Buddy Miller who was as sharp as ever. Having survived a triple bypass, he's chatty, self-reflective, continually 'winking' at the audience to let all know that even if the songs are serious, we've come together to have some fun at the country show. His guitar pickin' is the instrumental highlight of the show. Respectfully always slightly in the background he shares the stage with Emmylou and helps make her shine.

Emmylou has a large catalog from which to choose her playlist. Her set was richer and more well-balanced than the earlier concerts I'd seen. She allowed the Red Dirt Boys to shine and they did. I'd hoped that she would play more of the tunes that made her famous, but her maturity shows as she sings about and to both her new granddaughter, Prudence, and her dearly departed father.

Far from an oldies performance, her show remains fresh. "Two More Bottles of Wine" was fresh, but distant. She recalls the longing, dreams, and heartbreaks of trying to break into the music business, but knows that was a long, long time ago.

A long, long time ago, I listened to "From Boulder to Birmingham' on a cassette that stretched thin from multiple plays riding down 95 on the way to Richmond, VA during what were tumultuous and unforgettable times. BtoB is her defining song, so I was disappointed that it wasn't sung last night. I sensed many other folks were as disappointed. Of course, that's a privilege an entertainer earns when she stays fresh and never becomes an oldies act.

The music was way to loud with the vocal garbled by bad sound system or loudness. So loud it actually hurt the ears! Hard to enjoy a song when you can't understand the words that are blasting through the audience! Strange intermission between the opening act and Emmy Lou

The sound was so loud. Especially the mike for the lead singer. I love Emmylou's voice, but it was ruined by a mike that made her voice like a loud electric bark. Why does everything need to be over loud now? Is everyone going deaf? Could we have some balanced amplification which takes advantage of the pretty music, instead of ruining it? I couldn't tell if they were good or not, the sound was too ruined by the bad amp and or acoustics - just a really bad sound job.
