I attended Forever Simon & Garfunkel: A Tribute sponsored by Lakeshore Community Concerts, at Highland High School Auditorium on January 27th. The concert, featuring Sean Altman and Jack Skuller, was entertaining and fun.
Theatre at the Center concert audience fans of Carole King were treated to some favorite hit songs on Sunday, January 26th.
I attended the November 1st Echoes of Pompeii: A Pink Floyd Tribute concert at Theatre at the Center. This is a really good band, they played a really good concert, the only problem – I forgot how much I don’t like Pink Floyd so this wasn’t my favorite concert.
On Sunday, August 18th, I attended A Tribute to Simon & Garfunkel at Theatre at the Center. The concert was presented by Al Swearingen & Jayne Kelli, a married couple currently living in Nashville.
This is Monster Jam! Our favorite trucks, Grave Digger (Winston), El Toro Loco (Me) and ANY girl driver (Maeve) put on an amazing show for us. The evening was filled with tons of energy.
A Reba McEntire Tribute, starring Corrie Sachs, was a hit at Theatre at the Center on Sunday, July 14.
A standing ovation followed The Gordon Lightfoot Tribute at the Center for Visual and Performing Arts in Munster on Friday, June 28, starring Mike Fornes, who took the audience back to the 1960s through the 1980s.
If you do a Google search for American English, you will read that they are the undisputed best Beatles tribute band in the land. I have to agree with that. If I were to compare them to the musicians playing the Beatles in the touring musical Rain, I would definitely give my vote to American English!
All the Elton John fans really enjoyed the Elton Jeff & the Honky Cats concert at Theatre at the Center. I enjoy Elton John’s music in small doses so even though the costumes were sparkly and the music upbeat, it was a bit much for me.
The band Gone to Paradise pays tribute to Jimmy Buffet and his Coral Reefer Band, clearly embracing the laid-back island vibe! As a Parrothead from way back, I can honestly say that their concert at Theatre at the Center was almost as much fun as an actual Jimmy Buffet concert – and I saw many of those!
