Crooner Michael Buble's crowd-pleasing show in Denver makes this Cheyenne resident wish he'd come here

Michael Buble and his "Glen Miller style" band wowed the audience July 18 at the Wells Fargo Theater in Denver.
The syncopated music was tight, instrumentalists were phenomenal and Buble amplified the experience with his vocal talents, charm and impeccably fun choreography.
The 31-year-old Canadian jazz crooner draws a classy "rat pack" crowd.
Everyone in the audience dressed to the nines. Women wore heels and dresses and nice slacks and flashy sequin tops to catch the singer's eye on stage.
While their male counterparts, whom Buble later sympathized with in a joke on stage, were equally decked out in suits and ties.
Buble's fans spanned all ages and even his young, toddler-aged female fans wore their best dresses.
He livened up the audience with his jokes, mainly about Denver and joining the "Mile-High" club once again.
Fans argued with him back and forth about whether this was his third or fourth time in the Colorado capital.
Grateful fans got excited when Buble announced his plans to break "the fourth wall" and how much he hates the non-interactive experience of watching a show at a theater.
He then jumped off of the stage and ran up and down the aisles, into the balcony and down through the crowd. His body guard, of course, was in tow.
Fans rushed to touch him in a scene oddly reminiscent of old television footage of an Elvis concert.
Speaking of Elvis, Buble swings his hips with similar intensity and even pulled off an Elvis tune with great skill.
But his signature mark is his ability to croon and pull off shades of Frank Sinatra, a feat he proved time and again as he sung several ballads off of his new album, "Call Me Irresponsible."
The real treat was yet to come - at the very end of the show, he sang to that intimate auditorium without a microphone. His voice rang crystal clear as a bell and held the crowd in an awed silence.
During the last four or five songs of the concert Buble had a flood of fans head up to the front of the stage and encouraged everyone to stand up.
He performed some of his older tunes like "Sway," which got fans dancing in the aisles and pulled a cover, "YMCA," which kept the energy alive in the auditorium.
Previous television specials only give a glimpse to how much fun and charismatic Buble is in person.
His American Tour is one that shouldn't be missed.
At the end of the show he thanked his fans with a song, an encore. He also thanked them personally for paying to see him perform.
For those of us who went to eliminate that expense of driving to Denver, only one question remains for Buble:
When are you coming to Wyoming?

A Crooner Who Woos With Modesty, Humor and More Than a Little Swing |
Дневник |
Michael Bublé wants the world to know that just because he is a swinging crooner from the old school, he is not a good little mama’s boy looking to please the grown-ups by singing their music. That’s why he called his third studio album “Call Me Irresponsible,” he joked from the stage of Radio City Music Hall on Tuesday evening.
“Call Me Irresponsible” is also the title of the standard by Sammy Cahn and Jimmy Van Heusen that was a hit for Frank Sinatra and Jack Jones in 1963. And on Tuesday Mr. Bublé, accompanied by a 14-piece band, punched it out with a buoyant good cheer that turned it into a personal declaration of independence by a guy’s guy with few axes to grind.
A 31-year-old Canadian who is a protégé of the producer David Foster and of Paul Anka, Mr. Bublé, now a major pop star, is no hothouse flower who as a boy locked himself in a music room with a Victrola and a stack of sheet music. His suit and tie on Tuesday evening didn’t prevent him from playing the cutup. He may be catnip to women, but he also connects to men in a buddy-buddy sort of way.
He did an extended riff on manliness that included an affectionate, dead-on imitation of the early Elvis singing, “That’s All Right.” Horsing around with his musicians, he picked up a trombone and tooted out some phrases of “Try a Little Tenderness.” It all led to a musical joke about masculinity, as Mr. Bublé sang the Village People anthem “Y.M.C.A.” The audience didn’t seem to get it.
It didn’t matter much, because Mr. Bublé, like Harry Connick Jr., is a natural entertainer. Unlike Mr. Connick, who has a less musical vocal timbre and much deeper jazz roots, Mr. Bublé is not inclined to wow an audience; he’d rather befriend it. Near the end of the concert, he talked about his relatively humble background as the son of a salmon fisherman in a close-knit family.
No less a personage than Tony Bennett, the unofficial chairman of the board since Sinatra’s death, has already hailed Mr. Bublé as the best young male singer carrying on the pre-rock tradition. I agree. Mr. Connick may be a phenomenal musical talent, but he spreads himself too thin across the show business spectrum, and on his spotty albums wears too many hats. Mr. Bublé is sensible enough not to squander his gifts by trying to be all things to all people all the time; his ego is in check.
Although the bulk of his repertory consists of standards, his approach to pop is distinctly contemporary in attitude. He slides comfortably from classic swing standards to pop-country to Latin American pop to pop-soul without indulging in stylistic contortions. His current hit, “Everything,” which he wrote with Alan Chang (his musical director) and Amy Foster-Gillies, may not be a pop classic, but it is breezy and tuneful.
The concert’s outstanding number (and also a high point of Mr. Bublé’s album) was his passionate pop-swing version of “Me and Mrs. Jones,” the 1972 Billy Paul megahit celebrating the joys of an adulterous affair. Without bending its phrases badly out of shape, Mr. Bublé built it to a peak of crowing delight, his soulful melismas riding on blasts of punctuation from the band’s powerful horn section. He mischievously dedicated the number to the young women in the audience who cheated on their husbands.
The one questionable number was “Try a Little Tenderness,” the early-’30s standard that Otis Redding gave an undeserved second life in 1966 with a burning soul version so fervent and abject that its sheer passion obscured its sexist lyric. The song has a pretty tune. If its image of a wife “weary” from “wearing the same shabby dress” made sense during the Depression, the blanket assertion about women that “love is their whole happiness” is condescending.
When sung without irony the song reads like cynical advice whispered by one man to another about how to keep a woman in her place. You can be pretty certain that there wasn’t a woman in the well-dressed upscale audience who would be caught dead wearing anything shabby.

Michael Buble knows how to charm a crowd.
He does it not only with his classic song stylings but with his suave charisma and semi-flippant sense of humor. The Canadian crooner unleashed those endearing qualities Monday during a 90-minute concert at Chicago’s Auditorium Theatre.
The show was the first of three sold-out Chicago concerts Buble is performing in support of his latest album, “Call Me Irresponsible.”
Proving he’s the consummate showman, Buble delivered an energetic set filled with poignant ballads, jazzy classics and a few modern favorites thrown in for good measure.
Though his audience spanned the generations, the crowd was largely female. And it was obvious Buble has a way with the women judging by the dreamy-looking grins of those seated around me.
Backed by a powerhouse big band, Buble’s vocals were in excellent form and shone through flawlessly in the theater known for its pristine acoustics.
Buble began his concert with “I’m Your Man” from his new album, followed by “It Had Better Be Tonight (Meglio Stasera).”
He addressed his fans often, mixing jokes, stories and general comments of gratitude.
“Thanks to all of you for being here, especially the people in the upper deck. The fact that you people made it up there without oxygen is amazing,” he said, laughing.
Buble’s set list was filled with many gems, including “Try a Little Tenderness,” the sentimental “Always on My Mind,” the jazzy, sex-appeal oozing “Fever” and a sultry version of “Me and Mrs. Jones,” which Buble flippantly dedicated to all “the married women in the audience who’ve cheated.”
He also delivered strong versions of “For Once In My Life,” “Save the Last Dance for Me,” his self-penned hit “Home,” and “That’s Life,” which he performed with a full gospel choir.
Buble got a little campy with an imitation of Elvis’ “That’s Alright Mama,” and led an audience sing-along with the Village People’s “YMCA.”
He put a jazzy spin on his encore “Crazy Little Thing Called Love,” and ended his show with the poignant “Song For You.”
Prior to leaving the stage, Buble told fans he appreciated their support over the years.
“I come from a family of plumbers and fishermen,” he said. “We’re not rich and I don’t take anything for granted. I know tickets are expensive. … I thank you for being part of my success.”
Fans cheered and gave Buble a standing ovation as he exited the stage.

Bublé's jazzy performance wows viewers | | Print | |
KRISTEN M. RADFORD - Daily Herald | |
If you're living suburban life in Utah Valley circa 2007, it's safe to say that you will never find yourself in a New York nightclub listening to the smooth crooning jazz of Frank Sinatra or Sammy Davis Jr. Fear not, dear friends, for your answer comes smartly packaged in the black-suited, knee-buckling Michael Bublé, who gave a show-stopping (and for many in the audience -- heart-stopping) performance Tuesday night at the E Center in West Valley City. Dripping with the same charisma you'd imagine oozed from Frank's baby blues, Bublé kept every last audience member on edge -- and on their feet -- for a good hour and a half of brassy, big-band jazz. However, a huge voice and a great smile weren't Bublé's sole charms. Quick-witted and endearingly genuine, here was a performer that never lost connection with his audience. At one point breaking "the fourth wall between the audience and the performers," Bublé jumped off the stage and ran through the E Center crowd, hugging and shaking the hands of his fans. "I have a new appreciation for my fans," Bublé gushed. "You really should see my house." But it's no great wonder that Bublé's career has been so lucrative thus far. At 31, the Canadian-born son of a fisherman and a housewife has made a name for himself with three major albums, two live records and tour dates that continue to sell out across the nation. With showmanship like this, you can't help but simply smile and snap to the rhythm of songs like "Fever," "Call Me Irresponsible" and "Crazy Little Thing Called Love." And though jazz standards backed with a full brass band seemed to be his forte, Bublé's greatest applause came for his self-written, No. 1 hit, "Home," specifically when he implanted "Salt Lake City" into the closing lyrics. Salt Lake City responded well, even when Bublé told audience members that he loved them so much he'd be willing to marry everyone in the crowd. "And I hear you can do that here," he quipped afterward. Though ticket prices were a bit steep, you'd be hard-pressed to find a performance more worth the money, whether at a swanky nightclub in midtown Manhattan or West Valley's E Center. Truly, the man who has dubbed himself "irresponsible" is more aptly branded, "irresistible." Michael Bublé in concert The E Center, July 17 1. I'm Your Man 2. It Had Better Be Tonight 3.
