Hands down…the show was awesome. I agree that it was a toned-down version of Maxwell but I welcomed it. He still kept it sexy without having to be too graphic but don’t get me wrong, I love any version of Max. There’s no one out there quite like him right now. He really showed his vocal range and he’s sexy as all-get-out on top of being able to sing his butt off! He also moves extremely well for a 37-year old man. LOL. I mean jumping doing splits and the whole nine. Very impressive! He also got a little emotional in thanking D.C. for their support. As if I could love him anymore… Now, Ms. Jilly… Absolutely amazing woman. So sassy and playful. She did an amazing job at keeping the audience engaged. She seems to be so down-to-earth. She did take us on a roller coaster ride of emotions during her performance. Robyn, I’m right there with you girl, it was my sixth time seeing Maxwell since he came back too. My husband has stopped going with me to all of the shows but that’s cool too.

OK, this was my 1st time seeing Maxwell and I was not happy with his performance. He shouted out DC in Every song and allowed the audience to sing most of his songs for him. His beautiful back-up singer earned his $$ for him Friday night. I paid $ to hear Maxwell and was not really pleased with him. Jill Scott was Awesome. She gives the crowd all she has and sings her songs (regardless if the crowd joins in or not). She has a lot of personality and it comes through in her performance. Maxwell…..you maxed out with me brotha!

The show was awesome! I paid a pretty penny for the ticket, but damn if I didnt walk away a happy woman! Both Jill and Maxwell put on a great show. I was considering going to see him again in NY. Love that Brooklyn boy to death!

@ 987128 lol there is a segment where He gets “nasty” but by NO means does it take away from the GOOD music or the GREAT show!

@ Dawn & Namaste I also heard Patti LaBelle was there but wasn’t able to SEE either…so were they both there?!

@ Kelliwel I liked the Ascension “Go-Go Mix” too!

Awesome show. Jilly from Philly was funny, sexy, emotional and vocals were always on point. She really did her thing. Maxwell was on fire from the moment he hit the stage and he never let up. He looked and sounded amazing and his energy was thru the roof! He got emotional at one point when he was thanking the fans for not forgetting him while he was away, that was a really sweet moment. So humble and appreciative. He toned down the sexy talk a little, I’m sure it was out of respect for First Lady Obama, who was in the audience, as well as Patti Labelle.

@Rungnatee, thanks girl for the birthday shout out, you know my birthday was one to remember. It was really good to meet you and my other new friends Gloria and Ruth!!!

The show was awesome even compared to the October 2009 set. I really appreciated the nod to D.C.’s Go Go beat from both Jill Scott and Maxwell, that was priceless. DC fans let them know they were WELCOME here, way to go DC. Yeah, have to agree with others that Maxwell was toned down on the sexy talk, but now that I know Mrs. Obama was there, I understand why. Great show anyway with cool set design and kick’in bands. Ohhh it was soooo good to hear real, good M-U-S-I-C.
Thanks LMN for keeping Maxwell fans posted. You are wonderful.
