EXCELLANT!! As good if not better than watching the real Bruce! Like going back in time to see him when he first was popular. This guy had all his moves and songs down and put on a performance that we will remember! Had people dancing in the isles, even the older senior crowd!
I thought he did a good job inpersonating Bruce, but he was very hard to understand on some songs, to close to the mike. I think he could have pumped up the crowd a little more , with more of Bruces famous songs. It was entertaining, but not exciting for me.
I think the band did a great job! At first I was skeptical, I'm a huge Bruce fan - but once they hit the stage all my worries disappeared and I really enjoyed the show. I think he should have announced like at the beginning - hey everyone feel free to get up and dance! I think everyone was afraid to be the first one to stand up and rock n' roll - when we finally did! It was great!
Excellent show, although I wish drums were not so loud.
If you are a fan of Bruce Springsteen, you WILL like this show. Matt looks, sounds and even laughs very much like the real "Boss". The band is a group of excellent musicians who have the songs down. And I mean GOOD! Except for the fact that there aren't 20,000 screaming fanatics there, you could almost forget it's not the real thing. I went expecting to hear more or less the Greatest hits album, and they opened with "Light of Day", did 3 songs off Greetings, and toss in "Jersey Girl" for good measure. "Jungleland" was spot on. ESPECIALLY the sax solo! If the real Clarence ever hangs it up, the real Bruce might just come and get his impersonator. The piano playing was also excellent (even if it wasn't a grand piano for Bruce to climb up on). The "Stevie" double plays the lead guitar parts and does them very well also. If there is a departure from the real thing, it is that Matt (who plays Bruce) doesn't play any lead solos on guitar, but that is really a visual, not musical, difference. Also, there was no "Nils" or "Patti", but the original seven piece lineup from Darkness and Born to Run. These guys sound great and look like they're having as much fun as the real E Street band does. I expected about an hour and a half, these cats did 25 songs in a little over 2 hours! I came away very impressed, and i have been to about 20 real Springsteen concerts since 1977.
Bruce in the USA was awesome, the band was great and the show - wonderful. The sax player was amazingt! The artist made you feel as if you were at a Bruce concert! it was a perfect night and for $10, how could you go wrong!
From the opening notes of 'Light of day" to the last note of " Rosalita" this tribute band was on fire. Being a huge Bruce Springsteen fan and having seen Bruce live many many times, I was skeptical about seeing a tribute band. But Matt (plays Bruce) and company really impressed the hell out of me. If Bruce ever did a set list like these guys did, any hard core fan would have thought they hit the jackpot. Many of the oldies but goodies were played to perfection and the saxophone player in his bright White suit could hit the notes on all the numbers. Biggest surprise was "blinded by the light" and "for you" . The most amazing song for me was " Jungleland". Note for note an almost perfect reproduction of the live version. Matt has Bruce's mannerisms down pat and the voice for most of the time is spot on. Very seldom is his voice off. If this band comes to your area, it is worth the trip. I was shocked that the crowd got into it so much (not a large crowd though) Many members in the audience were doing the same moves and responses that the crowds at a Bruce Springsteen show do. The crowd response was partly due to the great classic Springsteen songs , but more importantly the excellent execution of Bruce in The USA tribute bands performance.
I really enjoyed the show! It was a nice setting outdoors with plenty of space to dance! I really enjoyed the event and would definitly attend again!
If you like the 70s and 80s Boss Music, this a 'gotta see.' The sound is, dare I say it, dead on Bruce and the band. The dude even looks dead on Bruce. A GOTTA SEE!!!
This is our 3rd show at the Fraze this year, and was by far the most fun. The band was getting people up off their feet from the beginning. The Fraze had good intentions by placing chairs in front of the permanent seating, but the show would have taken off a lot sooner, if they left room for girls to dance and have fun. We would attend this show again next year!
This was the second time I went to see this band. They are simply fantastic!! I have never seen Bruce Springstein in person but my fiance has multiple times and he thinks this band is great!! The endurance level of this band is impressive and they sound like the real deal. I highly recommend you go see them.
I went to Bruce In The USA with zero expectations. I have seen the REAL Boss 40 plus times and have been an AVID fan since 1975. Never in my wildest dreans would I have seen myself going to a "fake Bruce" show (as we called it). But these guys were really amazing. They played a huge variety of Springsteen songs, all which were "dead on"... as close to sounding like Bruce without actually BEING Bruce. The band resembled the E Streeters which was fun and the lead singer has definitely done his Boss homework. He had voice inflections down pat, guitar and dance moves very similar. All in all it was a really fun night. When the skeptical crowd (me included) finally warmed up to the band, we all danced and sang. I give these guys a BIG thumbs up. They are certainly fans of the Boss himself and it shows in their performance.
