Johnny Vatos Tickets

The venue and the parking was great! The show amazing, this group performed all of the Boingo songs to such perfection! Everyone was singing and dancing to the music, even me and I am considered a senior citizen, ha! Johnny Vatos and his talented group of musicians didn't miss a beat. They made you feel so welcome and part of the entire evening. He was so welcoming, funny, and oh yes, so very talented. May this tribute to Boingo tunes continue! Thank you ticketmaster for supporting this can't miss yearly event. Actually, I would like to see them perform more often!!!!

Even tho there was only a couple original band members the sound was amazingly close to watching Boingo live in the 80's (and early 90's)!!! I had a great time and hope Johnny does a Tribute every year for years to come!

Aside from the swearing they gave an enjoyable performance. The lead vocalist did an awesome job of simulating the old sound. They played every song you wanted to hear for those of us who remember the original group.

Great show, reminiscent of Halloween shows from the 80s and 90s. The venue sound engineer was clueless. Need someone who's heard the music before to set the sound board up and turn up channels when someone has a solo. Took way too long to make the sound good. This was not a reflection on the band, but the venue.

While the makeup of the group was different from past years, the show was just as enjoyable. Johnny Vatos has managed to pull together a group of good musicians, including his own son, Freddy, on bass, who were able to engage the audience of rabid Oingo Boingo fans and celebrate Halloween, as has been a tradition since Boingo's heyday. The lead singer was competent, although he did have a problem with some of the lyrics - but who wouldn't, unless you were a diehard fan? It was great to have keyboardist Carl Graves back, and lots of fun to see him sing Goodbye, Goodbye. As usual, Sluggo had his moments in the spotlight, including performing a new song, which was well-received. Doug Lacy was solid in his pirate costume, playing the accordion and keyboards as always. The devil in the blue dress, Johnny Vatos should be commended for continuing the annual event, while Danny Elfman continues to try to bury the memories, as he has moved on with his career as a composer. Thank you, Johnny for keeping the dream alive, and bringing it to a new generation of Boingoloids!

Great show! We caught this show a few years ago as well. While Saturday 's show was a lot of fun, it couldn't touch the last show we saw. This show was obviously a tribute. The last show was like seeing Oingo again. All in all though, we really enjoyed the show. Hope Johnny continues these shows!
