Review of Jamie Webster
Myself and my partner had been thoroughly looking forward to this event. We had travelled some distance and decided to 'make a night of it' by staying over in Dublin. I had searched for a Jamie Webster event by searching 'Boss Nights' on Google and the tickets for the Grand Social venue came up. As we are huge Liverpool FC fans we had expected at least some mention of LFC plus at least 1 or 2 songs as this in my opinion is what has helped 'make' Jamie Webster. The support act of Dan Elliot was fantastic. He is a super young musician, very talented, and engaged well with the crowd. I thought we were off to a good start. However, from the moment Jamie Webster came on stage the atmosphere changed. His attitude, to say the least, was unprofessional, and at times downright rude. He didn't make any attempt to get the crowd engaged. In fact he looked disinterested in being there and somewhat appeared to be in a world of his own. It appeared that many of the crowd had arrived, like ourselves, to hear at least some of his renditions of LFC songs which he does do remarkably well. Mr Webster was rather verbally abusive towards some of the crowd who responded poorly to this. The atmosphere where I was standing went downhill and I felt rather uncomfortable. I didn't have too much longer to endure as he sang for only about 40 minutes in total then left the stage in a rather rushed manner as if he couldn't wait to get away. I am totally disappointed and do not feel that I got value for money at this gig. Any talent this artist does have was overshadowed by the unprofessional attitude and lack of understanding of a proportion of his audience on the night. To be honest, a couple of LFC songs would have kept the whole crowd on side and would have encouraged everyone to enjoy his own music which naturally he wanted to promote. I hope in future this young artist does not forget how he came to be in the public eye.

Review of Jamie Webster
Overall Jamie Webster was a huge disappointment in the Grand Social, Dublin. When he came up on stage he seemed like his mind was somewhere else and then he had some disagreement with someone in the crowd and they verbal exchanges. He continued to play on but he only played for roughly 50 minutes at most. It was so disappointing and he hardly acknowledged the crowd as he walked off the stage. His behaviour was unprofessional at times and he needs to clean up his stage act if he is to continue to develop and grow a career successfully.

Review of Jamie Webster
Gig was very short and no Liverpool songs. I get it that Jamie wants to play his music but should also give the crowd what they want as well. Could have easily played a couple. His attitude stunk as well
