    Perfect for the type of show they put on

    by tbirdjo on 5/8/13Richard Rodgers Theatre - New York

    The background info and videos were super....brought me back to actually feel the 60s again and so perfectly synched with the music.......The Rascals sounded great and it was so amazing to see them perform again......I was sooooo happy. The actors really looked like the "Young" Rascals.....but the "old" Rascals ROCKED!!!!!

    The Rascals

    by Casimir on 5/8/13Richard Rodgers Theatre - New York

    Excellent show I would recommend that anyone that listened to them growing up go and see them perform. You would be surprized that they did not perform together for 40 years. It was amazing I would go again if I had the opportunity. For four guys from New Jersey they rocked for two hours.

    Once upon a dream

    by Felixlover on 5/7/13Richard Rodgers Theatre - New York

    Flew all the way from Florida to see the show and it was worth every penny. I'm seeing it again down here. I have been in live with Felix forever and he and the guys were amazing. Not enough adjectives to describe their performance.

    Rascal concert was great - what a treat!

    by BarbieAnnLovesTheRascals on 5/7/13Richard Rodgers Theatre - New York

    Once upon a dream, Rascal concert in New York City was a special treat. Seeing and hearing the four originals back together was truly amazing. They sound great - didn't miss a beat. Their songs have so much meaning. Their performances were wonderful almost 5 decades ago and still today sound beautiful. The video and narration was extra special and the flashback pictures were a treat. Loved it all!

    Rascals in their Prime/Still got it!!!!

    by ozzy50 on 5/7/13Richard Rodgers Theatre - New York

    Rascals has been one of my favorite groups since the 60's and they did not disappoint me. They played non stop and their voices were amazing. Great story line, background screens and music was everything I had hoped to hear and more. Would recommend their concert to all.

    Just great!

    by Tuneweaver52 on 5/7/13Richard Rodgers Theatre - New York

    I grew up with the Rascals. Always loved their hits. I could listen to them over and over unlike some other bands that wore on me over time. I had seen Felix a few times and knew he could still sing. I was concerned that I would be disappointed by Eddie since I did not like his performance at the R&R Hall of Fame show. Eddie did not disappoint!! The band received standing ovations throughout the show, particularly for Good Lovin and How Can I Be Sure. When Eddie finished How Can I Be Sure the crowd went wild. He was so appreciative of the audience and kept thanking us. Tears came to my eyes as I was filled with memories as well as happy that Eddie had survived such challenges in his life. You could see that the band was really enjoying performing again. It was also touching when a tape of Eddie thanking Felix for all he did for the band over the years was played, thus putting to bed any hard feelings over the years. I highly recommend that you catch this show wherever it is presented in the near future!

    A Dream Come True

    by HubBill on 5/7/13Richard Rodgers Theatre - New York

    I've got all the Rascals albums on vinyl and most on CD. The last time I saw the original band was 1969 at Boston College. This was a unique event in that they gave you and interactive mix of video interviews and re-enactments of events that were seamlessly woven between the live songs. Most people knew the group for the hits they had, but had no idea about the changes they tried to make through song and their performances to help us navigate the turmoil of the day. So not only did everyone get a great concert from the best band, but they got a little history lesson as well. The show included some selections that never made the radio at the time, but showcased their talents just the same. It was a very well crafted experience. A huge thank you to Steven Van Zandt for making happen what a lot of dedicated Rascals fans thought impossible.

    The Rascals: Once Upon A Dream Come True!

    by dismas2 on 5/7/13Richard Rodgers Theatre - New York

    Where do I begin? Well, as the song says, "It's Love!" As corny and old-fashioned as this may sound to the faded and jaded among us, The Rascals: Once Upon A Dream was indeed a dream come true. This amazing concert/multi-media production not only delivered the musical goods -- something The Rascals did night after night after night in concert (and on record) throughout their 1965-70 Atlantic Records chart heyday -- it also succeeded in telling this seminal rock 'n soul band's story with flourishes of humor, healthy doses of pathos and empathy, a sense of genuine theatrical flair, and just the right blend of sentiment and nostalgia. The reciprocal love and joy shared between this reunited band of brothers and their loyal, long-suffering fan base was almost palpable at the Richard Rodgers on Sunday night. When we last saw Felix, Eddie, Dino and Gene playing together on stage / in concert back in 1970, who could've predicted we'd all rendezvous 43 years later -- and on Broadway, no less?!! Thank you, guys, for delivering the concert event of a lifetime, an absolute miracle of a reunion that everyone said would never happen. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Steven Van Zandt for your tenacity, your vision, your excellent musical taste, your undying love for the Rascals, and for proving that dreams can come true. Sometimes it just takes a little time.

    These guys can still get it done!

    by Rich1957 on 5/7/13Richard Rodgers Theatre - New York

    For a bunch of old guys, they can still really play and sing. Brigati was maybe half a note away from hitting the really high ones, but his performance on How Can I be Sure was, nevertheless, terrific. Cavalierre was unbelievably good. Our seats were good but very pricey. To the extent that we paid extra for the "meet and greet" it was really not worth it. We had to wait for around 40 minutes after the show ended and the band still hadn't come out. They lined us up in a receiving line, but still no band. Finally, we left.

    A Love Affair

    by IJE1 on 5/7/13Richard Rodgers Theatre - New York

    It wasn't a 60's Love In or a Be In, It wasn't even a concert but rather a mutual love affair between the Rascals and their fans. Not every song was note perfect and the sound of their vocals and music wasn't always right from the records, and the video behind them while certainly done well wasn't the reason for anyone's attendance. It was simply a chance to relive ones youth, seeing the seminal group of my youth, not unlike the rest of this packed house. The average age of the attendee's was 60 plus. Some were Eddies neighbors, cousins of Felix, Genes friends, Dino's class mates. We were all related through the Rascals Music. I was there the last night of the Broadway Run, and emotions ran high, but I was told that every night was the same. Long live the Rascals. America's First Answer to the British Invasion!

    Amazing doesn't do this show justice!!

    by lulamom on 5/7/13Richard Rodgers Theatre - New York

    The Rascals are back in full glory. Their musicianship and chemistry get better with every show, and the Sunday night was overwhelming. I went three times during the Broadway run. I've NEVER done that before for any band. The atmosphere in the theatre was like old friends getting together for the best party with the greatest band you could imagine. People said, "Forget the Beatles" during the show. I'd have to agree. The Rascals are the best. To say that I'm hooked is an understatement. Wherever, whenever you can get to see The Rascals play, GO! You're in for an incredible night of joy, outstanding music, and feeling great.
