It was an indecisive choice between entertainment and sports. The Tampa Bay Rays who clinched the first spot in the 2026 American League East Wild Card playoff were playing the same evening Ricardo Montaner was performing at the Yuengling Center in Tampa. Well I opted for the latter since the Rays have more games to play including the playoffs.
It was Ricardo Montaner's second time performing in Tampa but my first time in seeing him perform live this past Tuesday, September 15. His opening act featuring Colombian singer and musician Josefe started promptly at 8:00 p.m.
Within 20 minutes or so of Josefe's performance, Ricardo Montaner's musicians took their places on stage. It was an intimate setting, a venue where you feel close to the performer.
Half way through the concert, he said "'this is the rehearsal now the concert starts...'"
Montaner's El Último Regreso Tour included some of his oldies that took us back in time to his recent recordings - "Yo que te Amé", "Será", "A dónde va el Amor", "Castillo Azul", "El poder de tu Amor", "La cima del Cielo", "El último Regreso".
His mixed medley was on point "Solo con un Beso", "La mujer de mi Vida", "Ojos Negros", "Yo sin Ti", "Yo puedo Hacer", "Convénceme", "Resumiendo", "Quisiera", "No me entregues tu Amor", "Corazón Fracturado", "Necesito de Ti" to "La chica del Ascensor".
"Cachita", "Vamos pa' la Conga", "Bésame", "Me va a Extrañar". He closed out his 90 minute or so concert with "En el último lugar del Mundo", "Para que seas Feliz", "Déjame Llorar", "La gloria de Dios" and "Tan Enamorados".
It was a night to reminisce, a night of positivism, inspiration, an uplifting fiesta. And I'm very happy I was there!
