I don't know if Bill Medley was ill or he just lost his voice. He is 74 years old after all and it shows. His daughter's voice, however, is very good and was the saving grace of the show. I have to give him props for trying, but there comes a time when one should retire. During the show he kept trying to hawk his book for $10 more than you could buy if from Amazon. Sad.
Great show he is great entertainer. Still has it .
Excellent show, along with his daughter a very good show. At 71 he's still got it!
Medley has lost some of the great voice but puts his all into the show and reveals a down to earth guy just having fun and even laughs at his age and limitations. His band is talented and in synch resulting in a spot on show without looking slick. An audience familiar with his music will enjoy recalling the songs and have fun as Medley talks and sings through the show, introduces his daughter who is a talented performer as well. He gives a sincere tribute to Bobby Hatfield and Hatfield's absence results in a Bill Medley show and not a Righteous Brothers show.
What an entertainer. Mixed a little comedy with his wonderful voice. As an added bonus, he has his knock out daughter, McKenna Medley singing duets with him. Only criticism would be the sound system. He noticed it early in the show and asked the staff to adjust it. Not terrible but could be better. Also the bass player's mike was set to loud.
He was terrific when he told jokes and sang. But a portion of the show was done by his daughter doing country which I am not fond of. I did not pay to,see her. Think I should get my money back.
Sound was good. He made you relax and enjoy some special moments
It was so wonderful to hear the old songs, Bill Medley is a great showmen.
I was a big fan of the Righteous Bros. and really looking forward to the concert - Darlene Love is apparently known and loved by many - we hadn't heard of her and didn't enjoy much of her part of the show. Finally time for the Righteous Brother so now we are sure it will be wonderful but his part is not all him (duets with his daughter and her solo and with Darlene Love - both have fine voices not a fan of their choices). He talked a lot and sang too few of our favorites. The theater is lovely and it is only a short walk to the Mission Inn where we were staying.
The show opened with Darlene Love who is a virtually unknown Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame inductee in spite of her vocal prowess and hit songs as well as backing up many big stars. Bill Medley started off by giving us all a scare. He coughed and cleared his throat numerous times during the opening song. As the performance went on, his voice improved and he was able to capture the audience with both his voice and his stage presence. Of course, it was hard to to miss Bobby Hatfield, but I believe Medley made the right decision in not replacing him.
He put on an amazing concert, he still has a great voice, and he was surprisingly funny. We totally enjoyed it.
Such a nostalgic evening with one of the sexiest voices EVER!! Could have listened to him all night. Great show for the money in a beautiful venue. Darlene Love was entertaining as well but could have done without all of the long drawn out religious stuff. Stick to what the audience knows and can sing along to.....that's what makes it a memorable experience. All in all....a fabulous show!!
The show was wonderful. But even better was Darlene Love, her voice gets better and better, even at the age of 72. Bill Medley's voice was good but he's straining a little because of age. Nevertheless, I wouldn't have missed it for the world and would go again in a heartbeat.
First, the The Riverside Fox Theatre that was renovated was fantastic. It was also held the same evening that the Festival of Lights and that was a wonderful surprise. We sat in the very front row. Bill was excellent and the show was very entertaining. His daughter was awesome, as usual. The opening act was Darlene Love and she brought the house to it's feet.
Hard to believe 50 years have gone by since this blue eyed soul brother hit the stage with Bobby Hatfield. Show reflects on the close relationship the two of them had until Bobby's unfortunate passing 10 years ago. The addition of Bill's daughter and excellent musicians made for an emotional enjoyable performance. What Bill lacks at the high end of his register he more than makes up for with his wit, charm and sincerity.
This show was fantastic! Darlene Love opened and from the moment she stepped onstage I couldn't stop smiling. Her voice is amazing! Excellent songs, it just kept getting better. She was on for 90 minutes and I just never wanted to see her leave. Bill Medley did a wonderful job and covered all the bases: the early days, remembering Bobby Hatfield, Dirty Dancing, Ghost--you can't be disappointed. The Fox Theater is gorgeous, every employee I encountered was fun, helpful, and enthusiastic. Shout out to Doreen for helping me and making me laugh at the same time!
The show was terrific. Darlene Love was incredible and looked great. Her voice was so strong. McKenna sang "At Last" and sure did it justice. Bill Medley was the best! I have seen him numerous times in Vegas and he gives his all and never changes. I love his voice. However, we sat in the Pit and got VIP Passes to meet & greet. We understood it was only for the premium seats. However everyone went and we were at the end and I guess it was a security guy who was rushing us along and when I wanted to take a picture with Bill, the guy said "No Pictures" and was rude. You could tell he wanted to get out of there which was not fair since we paid for those premium seats and were told we could meet and greet. Darlene took a picture with my husband, and I know Bill did not hear this guy. I also heard the guy say to people behind us, "move it along". That was disappointing and he should be reminded we are "Fans" and deserve some respect. It was a long show, but we waited on that line for a long time so maybe he should be reminded of that. Thank you.
Darlene Love & Bill Medleys voice will make people smile and sing along for many, many years...beautiful voices
The show was great and Bill and his band were dynamite but the acoustics at Thunder Valley Casino did not do justice to the band and vocals of the stars.Bill is not only a great singer but is a great entertainer. If given the proper environment like when we saw him at the Gallo Center in Modesto, Ca. his show rocks even more.
This 72 year old singer can still rock the house. Worth seeing more than once.
