Great new show that you really need to see. Fantastic Irish dancing by world champion dancers, awesome musicians, great music. You will thoroughly enjoy the evening.
We went to see the dancing, but this was total entertainment! The musicians and the dancers were the best!
This show was awesome. I wish it would have been advertised better so more people would have been there. They still did an amazing job!!!
Very talented musicians and dancers! It's incredible how fast their feet can move. I love Celtic music. This was more rock which explains the title of the show.
Irish dance stepped up to the nth degree with some dancers from Ireland. High degree of musicianship including two violins. Traditional Irish tunes and dance melded with Rock, thus the name "Rockin' Road to Dublin". The rock songs chosen were top hits. Rock vocalists do an extremely good job. They played the Irish song Butterfly, delicately performed and dance to, with the female troupe using ballet slippers. The sped-up part to follow was not the reel, but rather a rock and reel, guy dancers joining in. In all cases the Irish was preserved, but when they rocked, they rocked. Another rock song as part of a rock medley was Baba O'Reilly (Teenage Wasteland) originally recorded by The Who. The Scottish drum was used on a show down with the lead male Irish dancers. Then another drum was added. Then another, while adding male dancers. You must decide who wins. Taken as a whole, one would be hard pressed to see this degree of musicianship and dance in any touring show: Off the charts!
I overall enjoyed the concert. I was VERY disappointed --as the background music--drums/guitars were TOO loud. The vocalists had to ( almost) yell to be heard--at times and the background music overpowered the dancers/tap sounds. Not sure who the loud background music was catering to--suspected the average age of the crowd was in the 50's.. Most people in this age group do not like the EXCESSIVE loud music. I got some toilet paper during the intermission to plug my ears--enjoyed the concert much more. Enjoyed the variety of talent ( except the solo guitar player--70's style music). The dancing was super as well as much of the overall music. Just to LOUD of background music.
I should start with,,,,, The performers in this show are very talented. It is obvious that a lot of hard work goes in to preparing for this show....This was not what I expected. The dancing was awesome. We could not understand anything that was sung in the first half. The background music drowned out the singers. They performed songs by Journey, The Who, and other American and English rock bands. What do they have to do with Ireland??? No U2? Black 47? Cranberries? UGH
This concert was wonderful. I was very impressed with the level of talent this group has. I was also surprised that they came out after the show to meet everyone. That was extremely nice of them to do that.
If you like Irish dancing, that's spectacular. If you like Irish music, you will hear that too, as well as rock! The live music is fantastic and in-your-face. The vocalist is amazing, as is the MC. You will see and hear much more than expected. Go in the spirit of fun, and be ready to rock out with this cast. They're a mix of charismatic personalities, and each brings something unique to the cast. Choreography original and inspired! Sit back and enjoy having a ball with this capable crew.
Bass was so loud that the floor, seat, and my spinal discs vibrated. I stuffed Kleenex in my ears. At intermission, we moved to vacant seats in the rear. This is disappointing when you paid for better seats. The music was too loud to hear the lyrics to the vocals. Otherwise, a good, but not exceptional show. The repetitive music at intermission was annoying - change it up.
The show was so polished and with such amazing energy and talent!
When this show comes to a venue near you, run to get tickets! Irish dance / music shows now have a new standard. Part Irish, part classic rock concert, all energy! The staging and lighting got the crowd pumped up and when combined with great music and phenomenal choreography the whole thing is a blast. Great vocals with just the right amount of attitude as well as deep soul.
