Favorite Song: Can You Stand the Rain
Worst Song: None
Complete Review: My concert experience was wonderful.. Outside of the fact that I got to meet the guys this night. I recieved hugs and flowers from everyone. But it made my evening when Wanya and Mike walked to the edge of the stage and winked at me and Mike blew a kiss at me. But that is a night that I won't ever forget. Thanks fellas!

Complete Review: I won backstage passes off the radio station and I was so excited went and bought me a new outfit and everything and so it turned out to be a hoax because it wasn't even backstage!! It was after the concert and everybody who had won was herded into this room and walked pass shaking their and Uncle Sam's hand. I was too mad and to top it off Wanya had hurt his ancle and he wasn't even back there. Imagine this my husband had missed our meeting! But besides this, I asked them if Wanya would be coming out at all and they were like "no miss" they called me "miss" like I was a hundred and twelve years old. I don't know but it kind of changed my opinion about them, made me think they were only all nicey nicey when the camera's were rolling. And to think, this could have been by debut!

Favorite Song: We're Not Making Love No More
Worst Song: None
Complete Review: The Boyz concert was too sweet...but there was one big problem, not with the boyz, but the acoustics of GM Place. For some reason, the instruments kinda drowned out their voices, at least where I was sitting, (center, row 17). However, when they went to the a capella songs, "Can You Stand The Rain", and "It's so Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday." The best song wasn't a song originally sung by the Boyz though, it was when they sang "We're Not Making Love No More." They sang it a million times better than Dru Hill!

Favorite Song: Girl in the Life Magazine
Worst Song: None
Complete Review: At the beginning, before they came out, they wanted everybody to sit down or they would not perform. Wanya scared me a little bit because he was starting to act a little bit like K-Ci of Jodeci. Mike did not perform much because he was sick, but he did do a great job. Overall, the concert was the bomb! The lights and fire sound effects and the whole gig was exciting. Better than me watching them on television.

Favorite Song: Baby C'Mon
Worst Song: None
Complete Review: OH MY GOODNESS! The Boyz are as wonderful as they've ever been. Even though I didn't get to see the whole concert, they still knocked my socks off, and still blew me away. I had to leave when they were doing their rendition of "We're Not Making Love No More" by Dru Hill, and it gave me chills up and down my spine. Mr. Wanya "Squirt" Morris can sing his beautiful behind OFF! Every single one of the songs they performed from all three albums were the bomb. The highlight for me is when they did "Baby C'Mon" and they kept pausing during it so Wanya could just whine, riff, and moan his way through it. Oh, that brotha...mmm, mmm, mmm. I thought it was cute how he was walkin' around that stage, claimin' it, and askin' the rest of the guys what the name of the song was. I sang along with every single song word for word before I had to leave, and their dance routines were off the hook. It was the first Boyz II Men concert I've ever been to even though I've been diggin' on them since "Motownphilly." The concert was wonderful.

Favorite Song: All

Complete Review: Concert was great, weather was not. Tornado warnings and everything. People spotted funnel clouds five minutes from the venue. And I was driving straight towards the storm/tornado, but it was Boyz II Men so I kept driving. And I'm TERRIFIED of tornados. Overall, the concert was great. One of the opening acts didn't show up or something, but Uncle Sam and Next opened. I wish the concert had lasted longer, but then they might as well have sung every song off of every album. I would have gladly stayed. I would have given the concert a better review except the weather sucked, and it was resheduled because of Wanya's polyp, but the Boyz can't control the weather or when one of them is going to get polyp.

Complete Review: Boyz II Men are the best performers in the world. And to make it even better was the great groups that opened for them. (Uncle Sam, Destiny's Child, and Next) I've been to three Boyz II Men concerts and they've all been great. This concert though I had 13th row seats and it was AWESOME!!!!!

Complete Review: The concert was wonderful, but it was a shame that the Gund Arena was as empty as it was. It was only 75% full at most. I don't think the concert was promoted enough in the cities neighboring Cleveland. But all for all those who did attend, including me and my friends, what a show it was. It was the kind of concert that when you get in your car you put the groups CD in because you didn't want it to end.

Complete Review: I definitely enjoyed myself. Boyz II Men is my favorite group and they gave everyone in Radio City their money's worth. Even though I had bad seats, I still was glad I went to the concert. I love all of Boyz II Men, but if I had to pick a favorite it would have to be Wanya because he is fine and he can sing his behind off. I especially liked when the Boyz sang "We're Not Making Love No More" by Dru Hill.

Favorite Song: Uhh Ahh
Worst Song: None
Complete Review: Once again, the guys were the bomb! Everything was pretty much the same, it was as great as the other three that I told you guys about. Their opening outfit was blue and white striped shirts, with tan shorts and white sneakers. They looked like the "traditional" Boyz II Men. My favorite song this time was "Uhh Ahh" because I knew what was coming - NATE, "breaking the rules" (just for me) and SHAKING HIS MANLINESS FOR US ALL!!!!!!!!!! Plus, Mike SANG (instead of just speaking) the word "ladies" to get the crowd to say "Yes Mike." He sounded GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREAT! The nasty shiny jackets were back (oh well, you can't win 'em all)! Jamie was the man again at this show. He was so into it, he kicked the piano stool over and strutted to his bow AND back to his spot with the band. He deserved it though, 'cause he worked it. I can't wait until the next concert (whenever that is)!

Worst Song: A Song for Mama
Complete Review: On a whole, the concert was the best. A lot of people attended even though our transit system (SEPTA) was on strike which hindered a good number of people to show up but the whole Parkway was filled. I was in the front row. I was that one person who knew all the words to the songs. Because of the fact it was free I thought the guys were gonna perform like three songs then leave. I thought they were going to do a cheap "Motownphilly", "Can't Let Her Go" then "End of the Road" to top it off, but they didn't....They sang well over ten songs ranging from the albums of 'Cooleyhighharmony' to 'Evolution' (except they didn't do anything from 'Christmas Interpretations') but the concert was great!!!!!! Being in front trying to get a good glipmse of Shawn (future husband, too busy right now with college and work right now) he noticed me, he smiled, pointed and waved at me. I was in HEAVEN!!!!! The concert started at 8:30 but we got there at 5:00. The people were crazy. People from Philly can get cranky when they have to wait in a hot group of people. At one point I was standing next to a drunk guy who kept yelling in my ear but other than that it was cool. I met new friends that were from Jersey. It was a good experience though.

Complete Review: Well, they were awesome being able to see them three days in a row! All the songs were performed perfectly with the dances! "Girl in the Life Magazine" was a very beautiful performance! "On Bended Knee" was great on the 17th cause Shawn sang to me and held my hand! Then all three days with "I'll Make Love To You" Shawn threw me down a rose at each concert! Nate sang as little of "End of the Road" to me. The concert was awesome and Uncle Sam, Destiny's Child, and Next did a slammin' job too! "Can't Let Her Go" was da bomb!!!!

Complete Review: The concert was wonderful. I had to go straight from work (in my business attire and heels) just to make it to the concert. Their energy was truly contagious and spread throughout the crowd. The music was definetely beautiful, especially the "piano break" they performed with one of the musicians. I can't remember his name, but he is truly blessed with a gift. The Boyz didn't show up at the afterset that was being advertised, but I'm sure it was no fault of their own.

Complete Review: I took my five year old daugther and she enjoyed the concert, except for the fact the she did not get to meet Boyz II Men. When "A Song for Mama" was being performed, my daugther was hugging me and kissing me, that really made me feel special. I felt special because my five year old understands that her mother is a very important part of her life, and the she understood the words.

Complete Review: THE KC SHOW WAS SO GREAT, I WENT WITH TWO OF MY CLOSE FRIENDS, WE HAD 6TH ROW SEATS. WE MISSED UNCLE SAM BUT THAT'S OK, HE WAS ONLY ON FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES. AS FOR THE REST OF THE CONCERT, NEXT WAS GREAT THEY ARE REALLY SEXY! K-CI & JOJO JAMMED, THEY PUT A GREAT SHOW. BOYZ II MEN PUT ON A PHAT SHOW, THEY ARE THE GREATEST, THAT'S WHY THEY ARE MY FAVORITE! AFTER THE CONCERT WE MET MIKE'S BROTHER ROB A.K.A. STRETCH. WE HUNG OUT WITH HIM AND THE BOYZ' BAND AT THE HOTEL WHERE THEY WERE STAYING, WE ENDED UP HANGING OUT WITH THEM WHILE THEY STAYED IN KC FOR A FEW DAYS. STRETCH ASKED US IF WE WANTED TO GO TO THE SHOW IN ST. LOUIS WE OF COURSE SAID YES. HE GOT US 10TH ROW SEATS, NOT BAD FOR FREE! THE ONLY PART I DIDN'T LIKE ABOUT THIS CONCERT K-CI & JOJO WEREN'T THERE AND IT TOOK TOO LONG IN BETWEEN NEXT'S SET & BOYZ II MEN, BUT I CAN'T REALLY COMPLAIN I'M JUST VERY THANKFULL I GOT TO GO. LET ME TELL YOU ALL, THE GUYS ON THE TOUR WITH THEM ARE A CLASS ACT ALL THE WAY, & I HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE WHILE THEY WERE HERE, I'LL NEVER FORGET THEM.

Complete Review: I loved the show!!!! Boyz II Men PERFORMS like no other group. ON the song "Under Pressure" WHILE Wanya was singing his lead, he was right in front of me. Then he handed me his towel and winked at me. I was so excited that I almost passed out receiving Wanya's towel being he is my favorite on of the group. I also received two red roses that Wanya kisses while singing "I'll Make Love to You". I wasn't able to be one of the lucky ones that got to met and great them on the way out I got to talk to Mike's brother, and told him how much I enjoyed the show. The following day I camped out at the hotel where they were staying just to get pictures and autographs which I GOT. I'm looking forward to their return on the second leg of the tour being I stay closer to most of the venues in my area.

Complete Review: Boyz II Men put on a great show. Wanya sang his heart out. I love the fire that came down during "Water Runs Dry". The fire looks like a waterfall. The piano guy was also great. All in all, I love the Boyz performance but Next and Destiny Child was kind of boring. I liked Mya and Uncle Sam's performance also.

Complete Review: The concert was tight!!!! I had great seats in the third row, but it felt like the first row because the people in front of me never got up until Boyz II Men performed. First on stage was Uncle Sam. He was aight, but wasn't worth getting up for. The next group was Destiny's Child. I went wild for them since I am a guy. I was standing up the whole time they sang. In one of there songs, Le Toya smiled and waved at me because I was going crazy for her. But my most memorable part of their concert was when Beyonce sang a verse to me of "No, No, No". It was probably because I went wild for her when she was on my part of the stage. Next was next, but I never really paid attention to them because they were getting real freaky. When Boyz II Men came on the whole place was rumbling. They went on stage and started dancing, unfortunatly without Michael but that was aight because at least he was still there. The lighting and pyro was amazing. I almost got Wanya's towel but another guy snatched it from me. This was one of the best concerts I've been to.

Complete Review: Breif..well, I'll try to make it breif! It was just the BEST night of my life! We had 11th row tickets, and then we moved down to 6th. We kept on going to the stage but the stupid sucurity guards kept on shoving us back to are seats. But that didnt keep me back! I got to touch all four of the guys! I was shaking I was so excited! The next best part was when i was up at the stage and Wanya bent down and started singing to me. I just kept looking into his eyes and I had the BIGGEST smile on my face. most of the time Mike had to sit on a stool in the back because of a back injury, but when he got up, he went tp are side of the stage, and then he grabbed my hand and held it for about 5-10 se..i started crying I was sooo excited! and then he started singing to me too! then near the end of a fabulous performence, they started singing "I'll Make Love To You" and I ran up to the stage. I was pressed up to the stage and mezmorized by the guys! Then next thing I knew, Mike was coming over to us with the roses, he then placed one in my hand, and I held it close to my chest so no one would take it. Then later, Nate came over and threw a rose and I caught it! I got kicked by some other girl because she wanted that rose, but I held on to it! But, all I have to say is, that was the best night of my life, and I will never forget that wonderful night!

The roses deal during "I'll Make Love to You," was the kindest act by any professional singers at a concert I've seen. They're just the best. Keep listening everyone!
