Dear Seal, We enjoyed your show at Mountain Winery 8/10/12. Clearly, you and your band rehearse! Tight. Polished. Skill! Yeah, really, really nice!
We went to see Seal at the Pearl at the Palms. Marty told me he “might” have a surprise for me. The surprise was his friend Steve works at the Palms, and said he could get us better seats. He came to find us as we were eating dinner, and asked if we wanted to meet Macy Gray (she opened for Seal). We said “Sure!” Unfortunately, when the time came, Macy cancelled the meet and greet. Oh well, we aren’t really fans. So—we saw her first, and she was really pretty good. We liked it, anyway. After she left the stage, the lights went up, and we were talking with people around us. Then this girl that worked there came up to Marty and said “My friend Steve says you should come with me.” She led us straight down to the FRONT ROW, where she turned us over to another girl who put wristbands on us that meant we were allowed to stand right up by the stage. When he came out, we were close enough to touch him! It was amazing… he’s so good, and sounded just like his albums. But wait, it got even better. Marty went over to the very front of the stage to get better pictures. Then he waved to me and said “Get over here right now!” I went over, and Marty told me “You’re gonna like this next song.” I asked how he knew, and he said “the set list is taped to the floor.” It was “Kiss From a Rose.” Seal told the audience he was going to sing an old song, but he thought we’d like it. I loudly said “I love it!” and he heard me!! He looked down and asked me “How do you know what I’m going to sing?” and Marty told him we saw the set list taped to the floor. He said “Oh! Busted!! “and then laughed. He asked us what our names were, and Marty told him his name first then mine. He said “Lydia?” first, but Marty said “No, Nidia.” Then he looked at right at me and said “That’s a beautiful name, where’s it from?” I said “Colombia,” and he said “Oh! Colombia!!” and grinned. Then he stood up and told the audience “This song is dedicated to my friends Marty and Nidia. I hope they like it.” Halfway through the song, he crouched down and sang it right to my face (I froze), then reached out for my hand. I HELD HIS HAND as he sang to me! IT—WAS—AWESOME!!!!!! We were so awestruck. Marty did get two pictures, one of him singing to me, and a really cool one of him holding my hand. He shook Marty’s hand, too. It was a great night. Seal really seems genuine and nice, and he rocked out. He sang, danced, and just put on a great show
Seal was FANTASTIC in Memphis, TN……………………………..OMG!!!
What talent………….his voice is so pure…like what one may hear in Heaven.
The concert at Delta Chastain this past Saturday was unbelievable! Thank you, Seal, for sharing your gift of song!!!
I am absolutely mesmerized by the liquid velvet of Seal’s voice & I prayI can VIP MEET & GREET for Humpreys in San Diego!! It’s the ONLY city I can make this year due to recent heart issues, please please forward info & reply. GOD bless you Seal, you ARE a gift we treasure.
Love& Best Wishes for yiu & yours,
Chari
Saw Seal in Cleveland Heights Saturday…AWESOME concert! High energy. Perfect sound. The songset seemed to be especially for me! LOL! Got the VIP meet and greet package. Seal graciously spoke with everyone there and took individual pics with all. It was a memorable night. Wish I could do it again.. thank you!
Saw Seal last night @ Ravina Park, He was spectacular!!!!
Seal was GREAT Tuesday night in New York at the Beacon Theater.
I am so sad Seal, I purchased ticket to the Cleveland, OH show and now I am unable to make it. My Brother passed and I will be in California. I was so looking forward to seeing you. Maybe in the future, I will get the chance. Anyway, I hope and I know that you will give a good show………
Just saw Seal on Saturday in Orillia, Ontario, Canada. He was absolutely brilliant. Two hours of great music felt like 5 minutes.
Can’t wait for him to come back!
Seal à montréal le 6 juillet 2012 !!!!!!!!!!
J’adore Seal. J’avais acheté les 2 billets en pré vente car je suis abonnée depuis longtemps.
J’ai cependant volontairement manqué le spectacle de Seal car j’ai fait cadeau de mes 2 billets à ma fille et à ma filleule qui aimaient juste ”un peu” Seal…
Elles sont revenues du spectacle très heureuses et sont maintenant fans de Seal elles aussi alors je suis contente d’avoir fait plaisir aux filles et maintenant SEAL a 2 fans de plus.
Je garderai les billets pour moi à la prochaine venue de SEAL à Montréal car je serai fan pour toujours
Seal est un excellent performer
Merci Seal, je t’adore!
Seal has a plan to visit México City?
JUST I LOVE
I wish I could go to see in person
JUST LOVE IT

Seal–I saw you in KC back 15 or so years ago–LOVED every minute of the show–only downside was I didn’t get a chance to meet ya–you got me through a really bad time in my life–saw this the other day and got to the site for the presale on the meet and greet, now I can’t find my way back to get the info!!

What about Vancouver, BC or Seattle, WA? Saw Seal for the first time at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver something like 15 years ago – unforgettable.
Can’t believe that I got front row tickets to see Seal in Orillia and even better I’m giving my wife 2 VIP tickets to see Seal again in Vegas too! These will be her present for our 30 Anniversary. Don’t anyone spoil the surprise until after May 22!!!!
We saw him in Cascais last year and that was the best show ever seen and we’ve seen a few.
Why don’t we ever see him in western Canada ?
Please add “Show Me” to your playlist on this tour. I saw you in St. Louis 17 or 18 years ago and loved every moment of the show, sad that you didn’t sing this AMAZING SONG. I’m begging and pleading, please sing it in it’s entirety. Can’t wait until July 31st, when I will see you live again in St. Louis, MO. Thanks for choosing to visit our city.
So excited to see Seal in ATL at Chastain Amp. It’s been 3 or more years since he’s come here and I can’t wait. Seal in concert has been the best concert I have ever been too. This tour will be the highlight of my year. I already have my tickets and this time I am up close and personal! June 28 see you SEAL – so excited. I bought my tickets before the presale on VividSeats.com. Please let me know if this is a valid vendor for purchase I got the information sent to me from the Seal US announcment and the tickets were for sale on that site through Vividseats. I alreay bought the tickets and they will be mailed in July but wanted to verify the validity of the site.
Thanks
Yvette
