Sleaze Roxx stated the following in its concert review of Tesla‘s last tour stop in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on July 16, 2016: “One thing about Tesla is that you know what you are getting which is a really tight sounding, hard rocking, no frills, blue collar rock n’ roll band. Once again, Tesla delivered the goods in strong fashion on this night.”
