Yes, it was worth the wait -- and then some.

"For more than two hours, the vocalist-keyboardist rolled through the years and relived many of his greatest triumphs. That meant such '60s era Motown nuggets as "Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I'm Yours," classic '70s cuts like "Superstition" and even a few '80s hits, notably "Part-Time Lover" and "I Just Called to Say I Love You." - Jim Harrington of the Contra Costa Times.

"He just seemed so full of life, bursting with the same spirit that has colored so much of his recorded work, and his enthusiasm was as contagious as the first cold of the season at kindergarten."

An older Stevie Wonder - still a full-time performance.
Joel Selvin, Chronicle Senior Pop Music critic

"The entire show was an outpouring from Wonder. If he wasn't snapping off hit after hit, starting the next song right on top of the last, he was talking aimlessly but enthusiastically to the capacity crowd in the balmy night air and under the almost full moon."

Such a joyous celebration, high energy, positive energy, engaging, and enjoyed by fans of all ages, Stevie as always, is so great to see live. I only hope that I have the opportunity to see him once again in my life time. Once a fan, always a fan.
