Rich's concerts were always special occasions. As much worship as they were performance, the audience was always a part of the music and a part of the celebration. Three things were always certain at his concerts - you were going to hear some great music, Rich was going to forget the lyrics during one of the songs, and the focus at the end of the night would be on God and never on Rich. And some of the best parts came between the songs, when Rich would share little nuggets of "Rich-isms" with us. It was a great experience, and one that can't be found in many places. These reviews attempt to give some idea of what attending a concert of Rich's was like. I attempt to keep this list as complete as possible (while being somewhat discriminating!) by doing a thorough search using all of the available net search engines. If you know of a review I have left off, please let me know by writing me a note.Concert Reviews:
