The Ohio Players did not perform very long - I do beleive after the first song snippet they made a comment regarding a curfew. Their performance although it was GREAT - it was extremely short. maybe if the comedian was cut out, Ohio Players would have had more time.

Con Funk Shun gave a good concert and it seemed like a great warm-up for the Ohio Players. I was wrong they rushed threw a set of 4 or 5 songs claiming their was a curfew and they had to get off the stage. I will never go see them again!!!

Haven't seen the Ohio Players live since Tempe Arizona, in 1977, with Rerun and the other dancers. In Arizona all concerts are up close and personal. Brought back many a memory, good ones, but when half the oringinal players are no longer with us , things just don't sound the same. They were great in their day, and they still can kick, but ........

The Biggest complaint is the fairs operators, ie, cameras, sound, etc. All are sub par.
Cameras on wrong player at the wrong time, sound distorted at times due to habit of blasting music. Who' s fault? Who knows.

Although several of the original members were missing... This was one of the very best live concerts I have ever attended. And I have attended concerts in Las Vegas, San Dimas, Gibson, Hollywood Bowl, Greek , Newport Bch, etc. The sound system was great. The atmosphere was great. The groups did all the best hits. It was wonderful. Well worth the price.

I was anxious to finally see the Ohio Players "all the way live", but to my surprise, it was Lakeside that turned out the show! The Ohio Players horn section sounded great, but the bass guitar sounded muffled... no thump to it! Also they seemed a little confused as to what songs they were going to play near the end of their set. They claimed that they were going to play "I Wanna Be Free", but never did. Don't think they played "Love Rollercoaster" either. Average show from them, at best!

ps. Rose Royce sounded better than I expected, too!

The music was great, good to go back in time to hear the hits. Venue and seats were not to par. Luckily we were upgraded through a friend that put us front row. As side the from that, the tickets were somewhat expensive for the venue.

The OHIO Players vocal are getting old.....

Good concert anyway.....

I had a ball! Rose Royce and Lakeside rocked the house. The Ohio Player were just O.K. Don't get me wrong but, they just didn't rock as hard as the two other groups. Overall, the concert was a hit!

Completely missed the group we were going to see - Lakeside!! Soooo disappointed. Parking was a nightmare at the Fair. Paid the upgraded price for VIP parking, which meant waiting in a longer line of cars to get the designated area.
Ohio Players were amazing! If you didn't look through binoculars, you thought you were listening to them from "back in the day!!"
Rose Royce was great too...same sound!
Really miss when Lakeside was headlining with Charlie WIlson & The Gap Band at the Fair.

My 1st time attending a concert at the fair grounds and it was wondeful! All the seats are actually nice. The stage side seats are front row, but you have to look up to the stage. the box seats are actually excellent seats.

Lakeside took the show, Rose Royce and Ohio players were a good topping on the cake. Can't wait till the next one.

The performance by the Ohio Players was less than poor and very disappointing. I purchased tickets to this event and took my husband because this was one of the groups he didn’t get to see in the late 70s and 80s. There was no lead vocalist to sing the songs; Fire, Heaven Must Be Like This, nor Roller Coaster. The band hit sour notes that made me feel as if they had not practice or played together to prepare for this performance. If Sugar Foot could not have been there, they should have hired a professional vocalist for this performance. I was so very disappointed in this performance, that I would never recommend this show to any one. The band projected no energy and gave a very unprofessional performance. There is enough music in the Ohio Player’s library that they did not need to try unsuccessfully to sing and perform other artist’s music. This was the worst show ever!!!! If it were not for my enjoyment of the other two groups, I would attempt to have my money for the purchase of the tickets returned to me. Ohio Players you should be ashamed to accept payment for this performance, you did not earn a Penney

The whole show was great! I love seeing the artist from my youth. The OhioPlayers still had the chops and sounded great. The vocals weren't as strong, but I still enjoyed them. Rose Royce was excellent. They sounded and looked great, and jammed to "This is How We Do It." Lakeside is always my favorite. I was disappointed it wasn't the original lead singer who I saw a few years ago, but the replacement sounded great. The group danced around the stage the WHOLE show with high energy as always. I loved them and to me, they were the best act!

Lakeside gave their usual great performance. There time was short...only 3 songs. Rose Royce was OK. The Ohio Players were terrible. I have see Ohio Players with Sugarfoot on a cruise and they were great. But this Ohio Players group was formed by the original drummer and he talked and talked and talked. Without Sugarfoot's vocals or someone sounding like Sugarfoot save your money. i can't understand how they got top billing.
