I have given my real name as I have no problem with it.
Long time ago late at night when I heard/saw Adnan Sami on TV playing a musical instrument I was so impressed by him that I woke my wife up for her to watch him. With that memory and subsequent memories of Adnan's performances on musical instruments I went to the Adnan Sami concert with my wife to Wembley on Saturday 21 Apr 12. But we were disappointment.
Adnan Sami came on the stage and started with songs and finished with songs with very short time on piano. And that was a big disappointment. He announced at the very start that he would do every request but there was little sign of that. He sang other singers songs.
At the beginning when Dholis came they were not allowed to perform dhol on their own, which would have been enjoyed by most of us.
The music was so loud that at times one could not hear the vocalist.
Excessive use of coloured lights was a distraction.
The artistes could not be seen clearly because the stage was kept in semi darkness.
Finally the steps to seats in the upper tiers are dangerously narrow. I wonder how many people specially not so young have suffered falls due to the narrow stairs.

Favourite moment: Dholis' and Adnan's appearance but only their appearance and not after that. @
Opening act(s): Could have been shorter but Dholis should have been given time to perform without singers. If the support singers wanted to do more songs they should have done it with normal musicians and should have given Dholis an opportunity to perform on their own. @
