Talk Bronx Attends The Tito Nieves & Brian McKnight Concert
Valentines love was still in the air and in full mode for the Two Voices & One Soul concert held at Lehman Center yesterday. The house was packed with nationalities of all sorts. The crowd ranged in ages showing that Tito & Brian captured the ears and hearts of many.There was a lot to look at and it was like an old school get together as we ran into many familiar faces, people we knew and folks you believe you know from somewhere. Vendors had small tables out displaying items such as candy imported from Puerto Rico, other charm items representing Puerto Rico, HOT pastelillos, CDs featuring the artists’ music and some nice cold beer; oh and water Seating was comfortable and the climate in the theater was comfy also.
Tito took the stage 1st to show off his 104 pound weight loss and his lyrical talent as well. He put on a great show with some nice dancers and routines which kept the show exiting. He took a moment to talk about his weight loss and it was obvious that he lost the weight as he was concerned over his health which almost bought him to tears as he started to talk about it and moved into the “Fabricando Fantasia” song. He sang many of his great hits and also worked on stage with a new group ‘Ocho Y Mas’. As we thought the show was over he came back out to represent the home team’s success, the New York Giants. Tito came out sporting a Giants jersey and performed an exciting extended version of “I like It Like That”. He also made an appearance with Brian on stage, which seemed unrehearsed; to pay respects and sing a verse to the well known Luther Vandross song “Never to Much”.
Tito did a great job. We have to admit though, Brian McKnight put out an outstanding show. His show was just a bit more animated than Tito’s. He really displayed why he’s one of the top performers of his time who has real vocal skills, needs no vocal assistance and still plays great with a live band. He had no problem showing his vocal range in combination with body gestures, showing off at times to get the girls excited. After getting his show started he allowed a girl to come sit on the stage as what he calls the best seat in the house. He basically let her sit right beside him as he sang a song to her. Toward the end of the song he ad her stand up dance with him, placed her hand on his rear and his followed on her booty! It was hilarious as this poor girl so excited and probably embarrassed at the same time went along with it. He performed some great hits such as “Back at One” and others. Who knew Brian had some very talented children who he also performed with on stage. The children gave Dad a break and took over the stage to perform their rendition of “Let’s Go Crazy”, a Prince favorite.
The Love Song King had an excellent band and had one interesting Bass player dubbed “Big Sexy”. He was one animated guy who you can tell loved playing music.. and dancing.
At the end of the show Brian McKnight was given a Proclamation and announced an official Bronxite by Majority Leader Joel Rivera. Tito Nieves was also awarded.
New York sponsors were the NY Daily News & Bank Of New York.
Overall the show was very refreshing, exciting and well deserved to be held in the Bronx!
Talk Bronx has put together a nice approximately 40 minute video recording video and audio of the show. It’s not the best but its good enough to enjoy at the least if you weren’t there. You can see the video on here:
