I could tell the show had just been in existence for 2 1/2 weeks...there were a few things to work out. Yes, it was nice to see John Denver videos, but I thought the price of tickets was WAY too much for kind of a "home movie" show. It was cool that there were pictures of the band members when they were with John Denver. I don't know what I expected, but I would not pay that much again.

I was not really sure just what to expect and I was slightly apprehensive, I just could not imagine how they could make this concept work (The band playing live, while John Denver was singing on video.) But it was utterly AMAZING!! It is a very well put together show with a lot of wonderful video footage of John Denver!! (Thanks to John Denver's children and his estate!!) The band is just as hot as they were when John was living!! It was simply a fabulous evening ~ I really hated to see it end. I appreciate the guys keeping John's spirit alive ~ they deserve a standing ovation!! They also did a fabulous tribute to the Legendary Jim Horn!! He was already one of my favorites in John's band, and I knew that he was amazing ~ but when they did this tribute to him, I felt like I was just sitting there with my mouth wide open!!!

The original back up group including Jim Horn. Played along with old concert footage and interviews. The blend and reminiscences were great. John of course was in his prime ( on video) even though he died tragically in 1997.
This was a lot better than a tribute band.

I have enjoyed John Denver's music since I was teen-ager, some 40 years ago. Though I never got to see him perform while he was alive, this tribute concert was the next best thing. I wasn't sure what to expect, with the video clips and the live musicians, but I thought they blended well together. Even my boyfriend, who only went because I asked him to, admitted that he had a good time.

The show was well done. The biggest impact was that there were four orginal band members who played with John Denver. It added to the meaning of the concert, which seemed to go along with the theme John Denver had for his music-meaning, a message, a reason. We did not realize that Jim Horn truly is a legend and so valuable to the music scene for so long. It was a privilege to be part of the experience and excellent musicianship.

John Adams does sound a lot like John Denver - except that his tempos are painfully s - l - o w. We had two children with us who were asking, "Doesn't this song go faster?" with almost every title he performed. I found myself looking at my watch every few minutes. Tickets were pretty pricey considering... That being said, the musicians in the band as well as the chamber orchestra were very skilled, and I enjoyed the Native American group who opened - including the blessing by a chief. You can't complain too terribly much when you're at Red Rocks on a beautiful evening listening to the music of John Denver.

The event was a tribute which was touching, but some of the guests took it way too serious. We were asked to sit down when the energy was high, I felt the event was to be a celebration not a sad event. People took it way to serious! We had fun and the music was great, but people need to realize that it was a celebration of John's music, not something to sit and mourn over. I would rate the music an A+, but the people behind us an F.

For fans of John Denver, the John Adams band is a real treat. The superb musicianship of Adams and his musical entourage performs Denver music in the exact style of John Denver, remaining true to the original works. There was a superb mix of Denver's music from early to late, including the haunting song, Whispering Jessie, from Denver's Australia-only release of Higher Ground. This concert brought back many memories and evoked a range of emotions, including a profound sadness at the too-soon loss of the prolific lyrical talent of Denver, as well as the joy that talent like Adams continues to keep alive the music and poetry of John Denver.

Beautiful evening at Red Rocks, almost enough of a reason to see anyone there. John Adams nailed John Denver the majority of the time. There were hints of his Dutch (?) accent at times. We were a little surprised that he took a 15-20 minute break after singing only about 5 songs. The second set was pretty average in length. He did mostly the favorites, which is what a tribute artist should do since there is nothing new to add to the repertoire, but he did chose a couple of obscure songs. Also, did we really need home grown tomatoes with the plethora of other great ones Denver did.?

In the end, it was an entertaining evening and John Adams does a pretty nice job with all of John Denver's songs.

I really enjoyed the entire show. The only thing I might suggest is 2 mellow songs in a row before pulling us out of that mood & into a fast song. John A would play a mellow one & then jump into Country Boy or Grandmas Featherbed & for me at least, I couldn't make that transition that quickly.
