| Concert review: Michael Buble enchants female audience with jazzy standards, ballads July 24, 2007 By Eloise Valadez Staff writer Michael Buble knows how to charm a crowd. He does it not only with his classic song stylings but with his suave charisma and semi-flippant sense of humor. The Canadian crooner unleashed those endearing qualities Monday during a 90-minute concert at Chicago’s Auditorium Theatre. The show was the first of three sold-out Chicago concerts Buble is performing in support of his latest album, “Call Me Irresponsible.” Proving he’s the consummate showman, Buble delivered an energetic set filled with poignant ballads, jazzy classics and a few modern favorites thrown in for good measure. Though his audience spanned the generations, the crowd was largely female. And it was obvious Buble has a way with the women judging by the dreamy-looking grins of those seated around me. Backed by a powerhouse big band, Buble’s vocals were in excellent form and shone through flawlessly in the theater known for its pristine acoustics. Buble began his concert with “I’m Your Man” from his new album, followed by “It Had Better Be Tonight (Meglio Stasera).” . |

| Unbelievable concert. Have seen him three times, and each time it's better. Had very high expectations for this Call me Irresponsible concert, and was not disappointed at all. Paid high price for the tickets through scalpers, and worth every penny! |
| THE BEST IS YET TO COME and World......isnt he just FINE....wish I could tour with him........I've seen him 3 x UNBELIEVABLE, APPRECIATIVE and GRACIOUS ALWAYS.....true definition of a GENTLEMAN always.....his performance needs ABSOLUTELY no review....anybody who criticizes him is either an UNHAPPY or JEALOUS person......he's always at the top of his game !!!!!! Paid HIGH price for the tix 3 x but worth EVERY penny. P H E N O M I N A L....holds the audience in the palm of his hand and his BOYS in the band (GREAT job BOYS) make him SHINE more so. I'm sure it's a TOUGH life and you have to be very DEDICATED but PRAYING he stays around FOREVER.........HE is a much needed ROLE MODEL today !!! |
| Always wanted to see MB. This was my first time. He was outstanding! Although the venue held 6,000 you felt as if he had a crowd of 500. He got the audience involved and gave the impression he was happy to be with us all. His voice and song selection was fantastic. As any fan would want, I wish he played for another hour! |
| i discovered MB watching The Wedding Date. His songs played in the background. That day i ordered every cd he had and a DVD. I have been a fan ever sence. I never attend concerts, but was wiling to pay the price to experience him and delighted it was Chicago and the small Roosevelt Auditorium. I order tickets the moment they became available for the Chicago show. I drove 600 miles (one way) to see him and in the process stayed at the Drake Hotel. The entire trip was candy for me. His stunning preformance of I'm Your Man started one hell of a show and it never let up. The on stage banter with the band and his unique ability to share the stage with them as equals was refreshing...and when he steped forward and sang witn no amplification and no band to the rear seats in the second balcony, i was in awe. His band by the way has only about 18 members and they are amazing. Micheal sang for almost two hours, i wish it had been six. Today, i am trying to find the time in my schedule to see him again before the tour ends. I thought i was too old to be a groopie...wrong. |
| AMAZING performance!!! Worth every cent for the tickets and headache of getting to Chicago. Michael's onstage banter with the band kept me entertained for the entire concert. His sense of style and humor can only truley be appreciated in person. My favorite moment? When he ended the show with "All For You" with NO MICROPHONE. This is one concert that should not be missed!! |
