Review the show for
MLive
Each night, an MLive reporter will give his or her impression of
the headlining act in what we're calling our Snap Judgment reviews.
We kicked it off Monday night, July 1, with a quick review of
O.A.R.'s performance. You can check
it out here.
But readers can also share their thoughts on each performer
by commenting underneath each Snap Judgment review or by going
here and leaving your review in the comments. It's like Yelp or
TripAdvisor, but for Coast West concerts.
