I thoroughly enjoyed Michael Bolton on Friday night at the State Theatre on his Symphony tour. Michael performed with the Sydney Lyric Orchestra, and also had Australian singer Silvie Paladino join him on stage for a series of duets.
From his first song you knew Michael hadn’t lost any of his voice. Below is the setlist from the evening.
Stand By Me
To Love Somebody
(Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay
Said I Loved You But I Lied
You Don’t Know Me
To Make You Feel My Love
How Am I Supposed To Live Without You
Ain’t No Mountain High Enough
The Prayer
Nessun Dorma
Georgia On My Mind
Hallelujah
You Are So Beautiful
When A Man Loves A Woman
How Can We Be Lovers
Steel Bars
Time, Love And Tenderness
Soul Provider [encore]
It was great to see Michael had a great sense of humour, working with the audience throughout the night, from Marriage proposals, to raucous laughter.
In the end I would definitely see Michael again, I’m still considering buying a ticket to see him again this Wednesday night at the State Theatre.
