SORT OF....
A REAL BIG BAR TO REACH WHEN YOU TRY TO RECREATE THE GREATEST MUSIC AND COMPOSER IN HISTORY....LOTS TRYED....MOST BETTER THAN TONIGHT !
THIS A BEATTLESQUE TYPE REVIEW AT THE SOUTH POINT THEATRE....SOUTH LAS VEGAS STRIP...3 NIGHTS.....3 GUITARS AND VOCALS...2 KEYBOARDS...ONE AWFULLY OVER LOUD DRUMMER....ALWAYS KILLS THE GAME..
TWO SHOW IN A ROW LATE NOW AT THIS PREVIOUSLY PERFECTLY TIMED VENUE....2 MINUTES TONIGHT....LATE AND LOUD....2 OF THE 3 BIG DOWNERS....REPORTER GARY TURNER DID NOT LIKE THE LIGHTS....THATS THE HAT TRICK !
IT WAS NOT ALL BAD....THIS STILL A GREAT THEATRE...WITH GREAT SITE LINES AND A GOOD SOUND SYSTEM....TONIGHT TOO MUCH.
FOR A 51 YEAR VETERAN FAN OF THE BEATTLES....I EXPERIENCED SOME NEW MUSIC TONIGHT AND IT WAS MOSTLY NOISE....MAYBE PAUL COMPOSED THIS IN HIS DREAMS !
THEY OPENED WITH "JETS" AND "BAND ON THE RUN"...PRETTY STRONG AND PRETTY LOUD...THEN SOME OLDER STUFF....THE LEAD ....PAUL.....HE WAS RIGHT HANDED (MOST ARE LEFT HANDED LIKE PAUL)....CLOSED WITH "HEY JUDE" AND "GOLDEN SLUMBERS"..ONE OF MY FAVORITES.....TOO MUCH TWEAKING.
FOR THE GREATEST COMPOSER OF ALL TIME....PAUL MCCARTNEY AND THE WORLDS GREATEST SONGBOOK......NO ALTERATIONS ARE NEEDED....MOST OF THE FIVE IN TOWN GROUPS DOING THE BEATTLES RUN PRETTY STAIGHT.....NOT HERE !
I DID NOT HATE THIS...I LIKED SOME OF IT....MAYBE THE TAKE IS TO GO FOR NOISE OVER MUSIC...FOR A YOUNGER AUDIENCE.....NOT ME !
