Jamie - You Rock. My friend introduced me to your music and so the both of us traveled to Vegas to catch your show. Awesome. Especially liked your version of Cirque de Solei! Thanks for a great evening.

amazing performance. completely connected with the crowd. at one point, he jumped down off the stage and asked that everybody sit down on the floor. he was no more than 3 feet away from me and barely used the microphone, he voice was so powerful. He had so much energy and was very entertaining. The energy from the crowd was great. The best show I've seen this year next to Coldplay. He is an amazing pianest. I'll definently see him every time he comes to vegas.

Wow, what a fantastic show! Our seats were right down front, so it was amazing watching Jamie perform from just a few feet away. He is truly a gifted musician and entertainer. He really knows how to keep an audience on the edge of their seat. I feel so lucky to have seen him in such a small venue, that I will always remember this show as being one of my favorites. Raul was excellent too, I had never heard of him, but I am now a fan.

Awesome show. We have been fans for awhile but hadn't seen him live until he came to Las Vegas. We have seen many concerts in our time from Jimmy Hendrix to Queen but we have never been as entertained as we were by Jamie Cullum.

WELL WHERE DOES ONE START? THIS SHOW WAS DIFFERENT FROM ANY OF THE OTHERS WE HAVE SEEN BEFORE. RAUL WAS AN INSPIRATION. WHY WAS SEB SO PISS OFF? WE NOTICED HE WAS NOT AS HAPPY AS HE WAS AT THE ANAHEIM H.O.B.GIG. WE HAVE FOLLOWED JAMIE FOR TWO YEARS NOW AND HAVE EVEN BOUGHT THE HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER FIRST CD (HEARD IT ALL BEFORE). LARGE INVESTMENT IN WHAT WILL BECOME THE NEXT TRUE, ACROSS THE BILLBOARD STAR IN TWENTY YEARS. FROM COACHELLA MUSIC FESTIVAL, IN 100 DEGREE HEAT, TO THE ROXY IN L.A.(S.R.O.) TO H.O.B. ANAHEIM AND ON TO THE (((((HOT-ONE)))) VAS VEGAS,THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A MORE THAN STELLER MOMENT. AS TWO OF HIS GREATEST FANS, (WE HOPE HE LIKED THE PHOTO ALBUM FROM THE ROXY), WE TRULY LOVE WHAT YOU DO FOR OUR (ORDINARY LIVES) SIGNED, JUST A COUPLE OF OVER 45'S ERIK AND ALICE

Best night of our holiday in Vegas. Big fans of Jamie back in the UK and was blown away when we found out he was playing at HOB. Has just made me an even bigger fan and re-enforced my opinion of what a genius he is!

My sis and I were in Vegas on an escape with MOM?! so I was trying to find a show that would appeal to all three of us. Since my mom and sis both play piano, and since you are the spittin image of a boy I graduated with, and since somewhere, somehow your name just rang a bell (when I saw the feature in our hotel room what to do while in Vegas book) I walked two miles from our hotel in my sticky blistering sandals just to get tickets. The ticket booth line was forever busy because they sell to inperson customers first, I was told. For some reason I felt compelled to see this show which I knew nothing about. My mom was more interested in trying her luck againat the hotels Price Is Right show, but we made her go. When you referred to the Senior Citizens, that sadly was where my sis and I were situated, smack dab between Rauls father and our mum. Raul was amazing!!! All I could think was if this guy is the opening act, what are we in for? His softspoken dad filled me in on some of the details of his career. I told him that his voice reminded me a little of Al Jarreaus and he said he'd be flattered because he was possibly working with Al and George Benson in the near future? oops out of room

I must say from the minute you started playing all I could think was harry connick who? elton john who? Rocket Man was out of this world. How do you manage to jump over the back of the piano and land your fingers in the exact spot on the keyboard? I'm not so sure if I've ever seen anyone do that before. Do you ever hit the dueling piano bars while in Vegas and just come off as a heckler, only to have the pianist invite you to show the crowd your stuff and then just blow them away? If I had even one tenth of your talent I think that would be my offstage entertainment. Thank you all for the unforgettable show. Next time we'll be standing on the main level, without a doubt, sans mom
