Loved the concert, however, the first half the band was way too loud and overpowered the singers. The best parts are when they sang acapella.....do more of that!
Great concert; we love the new songs; we're thrilled that McDonalds got wise to use "I'm in love with a McDonald's girl".
We look forward to every year and The Blenders concert. They definitely know how to set the "Christmas Mood" Words cannot describe their voices, you have to hear them in person to truly appreciate the talent of this group.
Awe.................1MIllions times better than last year........Thank You Guys............... You Scored.....................Big in our world.......we almost didn't return this year because last year was so lame...... Way to get back in the Game.......
The guys put on a great show every year. The voices, the humor, the sound, was all to our expectations. Glad to see that made it back here for the season. Hope they decide to extend to 30 years... my only request was to hear the song "All Wrapped Up". But that wasn't a show stopper. It was great.
The show was so wonderful that I didn't want it to end. The singing is perfect harmony and "blend", and I already have plans to attend next year with a couple friends as I told them they have to see The Blenders! I hope they are coming back to the Pantages again! And the background stage with all the colors was so beautiful, it just enhanced the whole show.
The Blenders were awesome but our seats were poor. We have seen the Blenders several times before and WILL see them again. This year we thought we had great seats but they were NOT good!! We were in the second row of the left balcony. Due to the ledge, the people in front of us could not see the group on the stage. They were leaning forward during the whole show....therefore blocking our view. LOVE the Blenders...HATED the seats!!
Very fun energetic Christmas event! My favorite songs were the contemporary ones, like Last Christmas.
awesome! amazing vocals. even some good humor well worth the price
The show was wonderful! Harmonies were great. This should be a holiday must attend. I wish they would schedule dates during the year and sing other songs from their list.
They are a great way to get into the Christmas spirit!
Fantastic show - amazing voices - great band. This has become an annual tradition to kick off the holiday season. LOVED IT!
The Blenders showed up with a standard four-piece rock band: Drums, keyboards, guitar and bass. These eight guys showed that they all were solid musicians. I thought they had the bass mixed a bit too high, and when they did R&B and gospel, the organ should have been mixed higher. The Blenders don't do the fifties do-wop thing. They are big on Modernaires-type chords and also swing into a Motown groove now and again, and even do some straight gospel. They did a nice a capella set of standard religious carols separated by a recording of one of their kids going his Linus Van Pelt imitation. It worked pretty well, although sometimes the applause stepped on the recording of the kid. The set from their alter-ego The Folkers (shades of Spinal Tap / The Folksmen) was funny, but I would not have missed it if it had not beeen there. All-in-all the whole thing seemed more genuine than the disapointing Mannheim Steamroller we saw last year.
Definitely a must see. Lots of energy, great voices, and great songs. A feel good show for sure!
By far, the Blenders Holiday Concert is the best concert in Minneaplis at Christmas time! My college friends and I have seen them 10 years running, and there is always something new to enjoy. This is a great way to get into the Holiday mood!
My two daughters and I thoroughly enjoyed this concert! The Blenders performed several songs from their new album, accompanied by their 4 piece backup band. These were great, but, as always, their best work was the acapella Christmas carol set. Fabulous tight harmony! The Folkers set was a hoot (or should I say hootenanny?) Anyone lucky enough to be around the Twin Cities, Fargo or Des Moines should make the Blenders a part of their holiday tradition.
These guys consistently put on a great holiday show - 2/3rds of the songs are the same from year to year - and they are great. 1/3rd are either different songs or new songs. The setup and sets are always different and after three years of attending - it still doesn't seem old or stale. We are already looking forward to next year.
I would highly recommend this concert. They sang for 2 hours! Fun and festive.
This was our first time seeing them perform and they were great. We would highly recommend their Holiday show. I can see why many poeple have made them part of their Holiday schedule every year.
maybe they had a new sound guy, but the band was so loud a person couldn't hear the singers (which is what I thought I was paying to hear)
