THE HOOTERS were as good as ever .what a great show
So awesome!! They did old, new and everything in between. The energy was so high in that place. Everybody singing along and dancing. It was absolutely wonderful. I left with a big smile on my face. Thank you sooooo much!
The Hooters have been together for 33 years and they sound just as good now as they did in the 1980s. Close your eyes and listen and you thought you were back at the Chesnut Street Caberet or anyplace else back in the day where they played. This was a FUN concert with everyone singing and swaying to their old hits. They definitely tailored their sets for the Philly crowd. They played what we knew and remembered and did not try to introduce new songs or material or push an album that no one heard. This was just great "old" music. Total strangers were sharing their Hooters memories. This was the must pure FUN that I have had at a concert. I would surely seem them again. I would go out of my way to make it too and bring a crowd from the "old days" to relive this important part of my life. The Hooters played at my freshman mixer at Drexel back in 1980. They were my intro to Philly and I knew that I found a "home" in the City of Brotherly Love.
The Hooters celebrated 33 years together with an amazing show at the Electric Factory! The band gave fans an awesome setlist with hits and obscure tracks from throughout their entire career. They put on a loud, exciting rock show that stands as one of their best ever!
I saw the Hooters in 1989 in Philadelphia and when they played at the Electric Factory this weekend, I felt like I was back in the 80's again. They sounded the same and we're amazing!!! Everyone was into the music and the place was packed. Had such a great time!!!
The Hooters were fabulous. The sound was way too loud. I had earplugs!
33 and 1/3 ...years of folk/rock, that's real people singing real plain-old music with all of their might for all of their lives, what a fabulous celebration, as Internationaly appreciated musicians, local as Cheltenham, both bands, The Hooters and Good Old War songfest at the Electric Factory,celebrating nearly 45 years of WMMR radio, Philadelphia history, music memories, were vivid, refreshed, and being reinvented, both bands dedicated to new compositions, every musician still eager to express themselves, performing together, with all their might, for all of their lives, still! How inspiring. How do we let this amazing Hooters band play so often, for the last two decades, across the ocean, with all of their talent..? Well, Good Old War, who just performed, Come Back As Rain, all across Canada and the US, we better keep them demanded as artists, or Europe will keep them too busy as well. I actually went to see rhe openers, and fell for the whole package. What a great evening. how polished popular can present is a pleasure. I am really grateful to Eric, Rob, John, Fran and David,
I've seen the Hooters six times now, and this might have been my favorite one yet. They played all the hits that anyone could ask for, plus lots of deeper album tracks for the more dedicated fans. They played every song but one from their breakthrough album, "Nervous Night," and they also played several songs from their debut EP, "Amore." It's so great to see a band from Philly stay true to their roots after all these years, and it was easy to see how appreciative the crowd was. It's always exciting when the local boys come back to their home town to play. The audience ate up every moment.
Aftet 33 years I have to say the Hooters still put on an awesome show.They sound as good if not better than they did in the 80s. Thanks for another great show.
The Hooters are back and as strong/tight as ever. Have seen them since their debut @ Mattie's place in Levittown in 1980. The addition of the new guitar player and backround vocalist was a pleasant surprise and certainly a great add to an already talent band. The three original band members, Eric/Rob/David, can't thank you enough for staying the course and continuing to provide some of the best (if not the best) music to come out of the Philly area, which includes some outstanding artistis that go back to the late 50's. Enjoy the celebration in Harrisburg on Tuesday, and "rock em" > Philly style in Europe! Cheers / Joey, Pat, Patrick & Jeff
The Hooters sounded and played great. Brought back many memories of the 80's. Good Old War continues to impress. They were a great selection for the opening act!!
The Hooters came home Saturday night and kicked ass! Every song they played was one of their hits. The fans were into it-singing and dancing. The band was into the show as well and looked like they were happy to be home!
Wow!!! They get better with age. The show rocked the house just like Vernon's in 1980 in Levittown Pa!!!!!
