Leon has still got it.
by 0AABC on 6/6/16The Cave - Big Bear LakeLast saw Leon 45 years ago. Had pretty good seats then, but the seats at the Cave were even better. He and his group were fantastic.

I have seen Leon many times over the years, and enjoyed every show. However, the show at the Cave was a very special evening. The Cave offers a very intimate setting and every one working the event were pleasant. My wife and I where sharing this special evening with a child hood friend and his wife. We were very lucky to score front row seats with the general admission ticket but I do not think there is a bad seat in the Cave. I would like to thank the entire Staff at the Cave for such a memorable evening. We look forward to our next concert at the Cave. As for Leon's band members, what a talented group of top notch musicians you guys rock!. Leon , my friend thanks for all the years.
This was a small venue, 400 seats. Leon Russell appearing there, was amazing, since it was such a small place. General admission for all... so standing in line was a must for an hour before the show. Opening act, J.P. Houston performed for 20 minutes - he's an up and coming singer/songwriter, great story-telling songs. Leon came on stage at about 7:30 pm, and performed his hits for 2 hours. He told stories between the songs, touching on the Concert For Bangladesh, and the Mad Dogs and Englishmen tours. I have been a fan for a few decades now,so it was a special treat to be so close to him, and to actually watch him play from 10 feet away. His back up band was was tight, with some strong musicianship there. I just missed the female back-up singers - that would have set this show over the top. Not a bad seat in the house, and a night to remember!
It was my pleasure to attend this concert with the great Leon Russell. He is still handsome and is an excellent entertainer. This concert is a favorite on my bucket list.
Great seats, great acoustics, great performance, great venue, great evening!
This was the third time that we've seen Leon. By far the best time yet.
Mr Leon Russell Sounds just like his records are music cds When he came out he was walking with a came the night that I went and seen his it was his birthday the is now 74 years old he played 95 min not bad for the golden nugget in Lake Charles some entertainers play up to 3 hours he keep saying he was so sorry about his show I loved it and for the price of the floor tickets they where really great seats
Every performance by Leon Russell is a treat for me. This one was particularly nice because it was his birthday and the stage setting/layout at Golden Nugget was fantastic. The crowd followed an enthusiastic fan's leas and sang Happy Birthday. Leon hits the keyboard the moment he is seated at the piano. He absolutely does not quit until the show is over. Over the years, he's become conversational and shares stories about the writing or setting of many song. His on stage group was amazing. His song selection included songs from every era. I've been a Leon fan since he was a young man; in fact, I suppose since I was a very young lady. He never disappoints.
One day before his 74th birthday Leon Russell put on one helluva show in Biloxi, Mississippi on April 1! His music is a unique blend of rock, country, R&B, and gospel featuring his rousing piano skills backed up with just the right amount of steel guitar, bass, and percussion. He's also an entertaining story teller. Yes, he's a senior citizen, but so am I. A big thumbs up for starting the show right on time at 8:00 pm! No opening act. Leon performed for 90 fun-filled minutes and called it a night. Great show.
Leon was so fun. It was his birthday. How nice of him to come and entertain us on his birthday. The crowd was ready with signs cakes flowers etc and at one point in the show all broke out in a happy birthday 74 and still giving the best of shows. Thank you Leon and we love you that's why! Brought my 18 year old son and he loved it
