TORONTO, Ont. – Canadian recording artist Michael Buble performed to a sold-out crowd at the Air Canada Centre, Tuesday night. 680News music reporter Rudy Blair was among the 16,000 people in attendance and reviewed the concert.

The acapella group Naturally 7 was the opening act and they put on a stellar performance with their unique musical skills, and received a standing ovation.
Buble opened up the show dressed in a very cool grey suit and with his orchestra backing him up.
He was the king of the concert as he mixed his hits with several standards and even a few rock ‘n’ roll songs.
The crooner even performed a Michael Jackson song and dance impression.
Buble’s humour, which could be described as a little raw, was nonetheless hilarious.
At one point, he walked and sang through the audience, stood on a small stage and performed at that spot just to get closer to the audience.
That’s what the whole show was really about: Buble becoming everyone’s best friend.
And the fans loved everything he did. “Wow, it was fabulous, I loved it,” one fan told 680News. “Amazing, amazing, amazing,” another exclaimed.
Buble’s next Toronto show is Wednesday night at the ACC. The opening act Naturally 7 performs at 8 p.m., with Buble on at 9 p.m. The show ends at about 10:45 p.m.
Rudy’s concert rating: 3.5 twinkly stars out of five.
