Fan-freaking-tastic show! Rosie's back in her comic groove and Cyndi is just a little force of nature. Loved every minute, thoroughly entertained and happy to have experienced their show.

I've been to 4 Cyndi concerts and would have to say this wasn't her best, but still a great show, well worth my money. It was absolutely adorable that she brought a few little girls on stage to dance to "Girls just want to have fun"!

Penn's Peak is a great venue for Cyndi Lauper. It is obvious that she enjoys the show there and spends a lot of time on the floor with the audience. She did her memorable hits along with some lesser known works but every song was performed with energy and a touch of nostalgia. She included that children which was great. We took our 7 year old and she had a good time singing along with Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, She Bop, and the theme song from the Goonies. Altogether a worthwhile night out though the show did not compare to her Christmas Show at Penn's peak several years ago. This show was considerably shorter.

This was my first concert seeing Cyndi, and I am sorry that I waited so long to do so! She is still rockin' after all these years. Her stage presence was excellent, and she interacted with the audience many times throughout the show. She even brought some children up on stage for "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun". Her vocals are still strong as ever and her range still dynamic. The only drawback was that I thought the instruments were a bit too loud and drowned out Cyndi's voice at points. I would have loved to hear more of Cyndi's awesome vocals. Overall.....A GREAT SHOW!!

This was one of the best shows I've been to and the first time I've ever seen her in concert.

Our seats were 6th row center . She was so energetic. She was running around up and down the aisles, jumping on the seats in front of us like she was still in her twenties .

GREAT GREAT SHOW!

Undisciplined - Good or not so good?

BERGEN PERFORMING ARTS CENTER @

- Sun, Aug 16, 2009 @

Posted 08/19/2009

by senorgmc

Cyndi Lauper started the show by shuffling onto the stage with guitar strung around her neck, causually saying "hello" to the audience. When she stood before the mic, the guitar amp did not work. A sound tech came out and fiddled with the wires. Cyndi bent down to help him. After a couple of minutes she began the show. That's not a good way to begin a concert.

I think Cyndi Lauper's personal appeal to her fans is what I found to interfere with her performance . . . she is undisciplined, not in her art but with her performance.

The negative side to that is exemplified by the rocky start to her show and by taking the time to unlace shoes after the first song (back to the audience at the back of the stage) when she could have just come on stage barefoot and by spending too much time in the orchestra section when half of the the audience could not see her (this venue has a very large mezzanine and balcony section).

The positive side is that Cyndi Lauper is very personable and seems genuine. She comes across as being unaffected by her fame. And, of course, that is very appealing.

Her lack of discipline does not carry over to her art. Her voice is strong and Cyndi is in full control of her music. Other than my surprise that she has not evolved past her pop rock songs of the 1980's, I enjoyed her command of the music.

So while I enjoyed the music, this concert could be helped with some very basic common sense principles applied to the presentation.

Being the last show on the leg of this particular tour, Cyndi Lauper rocked down the house. She performed songs off her pre solo fame "Blue Angel" album as well as covered her major hits along with some from her newer CD, "Bring Ya' to the Brink." In addition, timeless standards classics as "At Last" and Joni Mitchell's "Carey" earned her endless standing ovations. It was a lifespan of her career though music.

Being a musical icon as she is , Lauper is truly a highly energetic, timeless and classy act.

A must-see performer as Lauper's voice is incomparable between a live setting and a recording.

Cyndi looked fab of course and put her all into every song as she always does. She played for almost 2 hours and the show did not drag once. Her opening band, a female power trio from Canada was pretty good, better than the guys she had a couple of years ago.

I was blown away. Cyndi is awesome!!!! She looked great, and sounded wonderful, she hasn't aged a day in the past 20 years. What a great show!!!! I am one of her her biggest fans, and my family was so excited that I got a chance to see her again. The last time I saw her in person was when she filmed her video in Wharton, New Jersey. TIME AFTER TIME. I was so happy to get her program at the end of the show, she is truly beautiful. Thank you Cyndi for an unforgettable night!!!

PS. Great idea, thanks for asking people to donate food, nobody should go hungry.

Cyndi Lauper displayed one of the finest sets of pipes on a female artist that I've ever heard! She played her big hits and new material including a medley that included Iko Iko. She danced in the audience frequently.She bantered with the audience as she shared some personal anecdotes.She had some young girls from the audience( and the opening band, Hunter Valentine),join her onstage for Girls Just Want To Have Fun .She danced around the stage all evening, displaying an amazing amount of energy. She really only played the pedal steel guitar on 3 or 4 songs.Ms. Lauper did about 3 encores and left everyone in the audience satisfied.

From start to finish the show was awesome. Saw her in Atlantic City 2 years ago may have gotten better if that is possible. Liked the fact that she talked to fans more this concert which made it a little more personal. She made you feel like a friend. Still looks and sounds like she did in the 70's. Great entertainer!!

Location: NYC metro area

Cyndi is a vivacious alternative pixie with an effervescent spirit, superior showmanship, inspired song writing skills, formidable musicianship, and EXTRAORDINARY vocals. In my view, she's one of the most underrated artists of our time. I've seen Mick Jagger and Tina Turner live -- and Cyndi is BETTER!

Last night's concert was amazing, as always! I especially enjoyed her renditions of "Goonies R Good Enough," "Money Changes Everything," and "True Colors." Also, "At Last" was beautiful and really showcased her vocals. At times, Cyndi ran up and down the aisles, climbed on chairs, and admonished the security guard that fans are allowed to approach her.

Suggestions/Criticisms:
I would have liked to hear a few acoustic songs. Also, I could have done without the two Blue Angels songs and the Joni Mitchell "silver" song -- especially since those slots could have been filled by fantastic songs from Cyndi's solo career (e.g., "Shine," "Grab a Hold," "That's What I Think," "Insecurious," "A Night to Remember," "Dancing with a Stranger," "I Don't Want to Be Your Friend," "Heading West," etc.). Cyndi should have prefaced "True Colors" with a brief statement about equal rights -- or at least a comment about how the song honors her friend "Blue," a man who is no longer with us.

re. the venue:
BergenPAC is an intimate space (which is ideal for concerts). However, it was too warm; the air conditioning was insufficient.

re. volume:
As with most concerts, the volume should have been turned down a few notches.
