#REVIEW: “CASINO ROYALE IN CONCERT”

Review by George Kozera for Mr. Will Wong Until it was eclipsed by Skyfall in 2012, CASINO ROYALE was the biggest grossing James Bond movie in the series. Not only was it Daniel Craig’s debut in the title role, it was also a compelling, well-acted story that did not rely on gadgets and eye-rolling jokey double entendres. The action sequences continue to thrill and amaze, yet in this Movie they just felt more plausible and believable. To experience CASINO ROYALE IN CONCERT was truly ... Read more

#REVIEW: TD MUSIC ACCESS PRESENT DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL + THIRD EYE BLIND AT ECHO BEACH

Review by David Baldwin for Mr. Will Wong Ominous fog and a healthy amount of mosquito coverage could not stop nearly four hours of music from unfurling at TD Echo Beach last night, presented by TD Music Access. Indie band Quiet Company briefly warmed up the crowd before Dashboard Confessional took the stage around 8 PM. The typically quiet emo band was nearly unrecognizable in their set, fueled by the infectious energy of lead singer Chris Carrabba. He told fans early on that he had drank ... Read more

#REVIEW: JASON MRAZ IN TORONTO AT MASSEY HALL

Review by Justin Waldman for Mr. Will Wong Having been a Fan of Jason Mraz for the last six years has meant seeing him on his last two Tours in Toronto, both of which took place at the Molson Canadian Amphitheatre, and seeing him at an even more intimate venue in Massey Hall was a no-brainer. Now what is great about an Artist like Mraz is that he collaborates with Bands and Artists that deserve the exposure in the name of musicality over gimmicks. On this Tour, he brings along longtime Pals ... Read more
