  • Great

    I would have liked some of his vocals. Guitar was super as expected.

  • Disappointed

    by Geof on 11/29/23Jimmy’s Jazz and Blues Club - PortsmouthRating: 2 out of 5

    I will say the man can play guitar, and he plays it well. Unfortunately he plays it WAY too loud! If I were 100 rows back in a stadium, then maybe it would have been OK. Three tables away from the stage in a place like Jimmy's Jazz and Blues club though, it was unbearably loud. Additionally, his mic was up way too loud as well. Even for a hearing compromised guy like me. My wife had to leave the room after the first song. I eventually found her in the bar on the top floor and we watched the rest of the show on the TV. As long as the doors were closed it was OK. I've been to many shows at Jimmy's but this is the first time I've experienced a loudness issue.

  • Great show

    by Chris on 9/17/23Humphreys Backstage Live - San DiegoRating: 5 out of 5

    Small venue, so it was pretty intimate. He put on a good, long show. Obviously a pro. He played great!

  • Way too loud!

    by brucrj on 12/3/22Jimmy’s Jazz and Blues Club - PortsmouthRating: 3 out of 5

    Very loud for that small hall. Popa started out good but less then half way though it got kinda boring. Too many jams and not enough of his good songs. Plus, it was just too loud.

  • Popa Rocks!

    From start to finish he was amazing. What a master guitarist. Great band, great time.
