Pedrito and guys were absolutely phenomenal!!!! Pure fire 🔥
Unfortunately the venue could not get the stage monitors together
It was a constant but intermittent issue the whole show
The monitors feeding back BAD
Mics would would fine for several tunes then then suddenly stop working
I’m a sound guy and it made no sense at all
Yes things get nutty after sound check but they couldn’t isolate and fix the problems in a 1 1/2 hour show
The band did an amazing job trying to not let it get to them and still performed at a crazy high-level but… they cut the evening short with no encore because by the end you could just see it in their faces
they were sick of it
Set the band gets five out of five stars. The venue gets 2 out of five. I mean it could’ve been worse I guess 😅
I’ve seen other shows there and they were great so I don’t know what happened.

Pedrito Martínez Group delivered and then some!! The energy, music, and engagement was GREAT! The show started a little late due to some technical difficulties that had NOTHING to do with the group, none the less it was great! Looking for forward to the next one. Ashe!
