The Rock'n'Roll Legends Review

Went to see this show called The Rock'n'Roll Legends last night at the Casino. It was quite interesting. The show started at 7:30 and lasted about an hour 15 minutes (as you can imagine, there were a lot of older folks in the audience… early start time.. early to bed - right? That's my theory anyways). For those of you who work in Youth Programs, just imagine a hoard of 50 or so Nicole Laplantes in the audience and you'll get the picture. LOL

The show started with a mix of Elvis Presley songs (An American Trilogy, Tutti Frutti) and finishing with a mix of the songs from the movie Grease (Summer Nights, We go together). We also heard songs from The Platters (My Prayer, Smoke gets in your eyes), Leslie Gore (It's my Party), Johnny Farago (Trois p'tits coups) and many more.

It was pretty cool, with a live band in the back and some great dancers, the whole thing flew by. I didn't care much for the 60s french portion (Jeunesse d'aujourd'hui) as it was primarily translated cover versions of classics 50s songs.
My main complaint would be that with shows like these are like these Rock'n'Roll CD compilations, you always hear the same bits of these songs. I hate this. If you do a rendition of Johnny B Good, do it all, not just 6 bars of it. It's a short song for crying out loud!

All in all, we had a good time. We got the free tickets from Cinthia's Parents couldn't go as they are down south right now. Free is always good!
