I was waiting over 25 years for a French Singer to come to New York. Yes I went to see Charles Aznavour few times. Johnny Hallyday was amazing it was a gift to be able to see him so close to us. His musicians are top of the line. I loved the show and waiting for him to be back. He is our Boss in France<3

About
JOHNYY HALLYDAY IN CONCERT:
More than five decades after his debut, legendary French rocker Johnny Hallyday remains a consummate showman, living up to his reputation as France's Elvis Presley with consistently bold performances around the world. Hallyday's love for the stage is all-encompassing – despite a 2009 farewell tour, he hasn't been able to resist his adoring fans, resurfacing intermittently for highly coveted concerts of his greatest hits. His 2012 appearances in New York and LA knocked fans' socks off, bringing anticipation for his 2014 tour dates to a fever pitch.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Born and raised in Paris, Johnny Hallyday became a European superstar in the '60s with his French-language recordings of Elvis-inspired rock and roll. Along with his signature croon and pompadour-topped good looks, beloved hits like "Let's Twist Again" and "Que Je T'aime" made Hallyday an overnight icon — a status that was only fueled by his outrageous live performances. Over a career that spans half a century, Hallyday has released 41 studio albums, embarked on more than 180 tours, and sold in excess of 100 million records, earning him an almost unrivaled position in French popular culture.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"One of the most entertaining performances I have ever seen - even though I am not fluent in French, this was a tremendously enjoyable show. Easily can understand the ongoing popularity of Johnny, Johnny, Johnny."
"An exceptional performance by an exceptional artist. He was in such great shape, sang his hits from the 60s as well as more recent ones and, of course, the now-classic 'Gabrielle,' 'Diego' etc..."
"Johnny was a ROCKSTAR, singing for almost two hours straight, both old and new songs that the audience loved."

Rating: 5 out of 5 oo la la - Magnifique. Incroyable.
by CindyMO on 10/9/12Beacon Theatre - New YorkGreat blend of blues and rock and tireless energy from Johnny -- and yes, he IS the French Elvis. Do not pass up the opportunity to catch his act if you can - even if you don't understand French, the songs are amazing and you will recognize some of them, like "Hey, Joe" to other rock classics (such as Creedence Clearwater riffs). You will be joined by an energized French speaking audience who clearly appreciate this National Treasure Great fun! Great voice and presence. Love the rock biker look that somehow works for him!

by Anonymous on 10/9/12Beacon Theatre - New YorkAwesome! He still rocks like no one else!! The Beacon being owned by MSG should give an act that size to the Garden, although the Beacon retains wonderful intimacy.
