SMOKEY ROBINSON PRESENTS AUSTRALIAS'S HUMAN NATURE !

IT WAS 8 MINUTES LATE.

AS GOOD A SHOW AS THERE EVER WAS IN LAS VEGAS AND FOR ALL THE RIGHT REASONS !

THIS GOES SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY AT THE IMPERIAL PALACE SHOWROOM 888 777 7664

CAN'T SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT THIS....OH...IT COULD HAVE STARTED ON TIME !

4 WHITE AUSTRALIAN SINGERS DOING MOTOWN...THEY HAVE BEEN AT IT 21 YEARS...THEY LOOKED YOUNG TO ME...THO EVERYBODY DOES...THIS A WELL HONED, WELL REHEARSED 88 MINUTES THAT PLAYED AS GOOD AS OR BETTER THAN MOTOWN ITSELF. GOD I LOVED IT.

MAYBE THE CHOREOGRAPHY AND STEP MOVES WITH THE MUSIC WON ME OVER EARLY...BUT THE SINGING AND 7 PIECE BACKUP GROUP WENT TOGETHER LIKE THE 4 TOPS AT THE TOP OF THEIR GAME.

GREAT TO SKIM OFF THE BEST OF THE 60'S MOTOWN AND FOLLOW PERFECTLY THE ARRANGEMENTS AND VOCALS...THESE GUYS CAN ALL SING AND DANCE AND THEY ALL DID.

AT LEAST 4 COSTUME CHANGES, SOME VOCALS WITHOUT BACKUP WHICH PLAYED PERFECTLY...NICE CROWD...MOSTLY WHITE...I AM NEVER CRAZY ABOUT BRING UP AN AUDIENCE MEMBER AND ON THIS NIGHT THEY GOT A DITZ !

LOTS OF WORK AND EFFORT IN PUTTING THIS TOGETHER AND ALL THE EFFORT WAS NOT LOST ON ME...JUST BEAUTIFUL TO SEE THE MOVES AND THE SMILES TELLING US THEY WERE GLAD TO BE HERE...I WAS TOO.

SOME OF THE GREAT STAGING OF THIS INCLUDED VIDEO THAT I LIKED, HISTORICAL, INFORMATIVE AND CURRENT...PRE SHOW OPENING INCLUDED TRIVIA ON A SCREEN FOR PEOPLE MY AGE AND I DID WELL ....LOVED IT.

THIS IS RECOMMENDED TO THE WORLD...THEY SAID THEY HAVE A YEAR RUN AT THE I P....I AM PLANNING MY NEXT VISIT SOON.

92 A-...COULD HAVE HAD A 100 IF THEY WOULD HAVE STARTED ON TIME.
