The Rascals (NY) Tickets

The show was great. Time could have been a bit kinder to each of them, but their voices and musicianship haven't changed. There should have been more clips and videos on the background screen and less psychedelic early music video format. The backup singers, bass player and keyboard player were excellent. Using actors as the band members in their youth was OK, but the one scene of playfully shooting each other with a gun was tasteless and unnecessary. The real band members sounded whiney complaining that they lost their way because no one took care of them. Still, they made and still make great music. It bought back wonderful memories.

This is a "must see" show for anyone who is a rascals fan. they played like they were doing it for the last 40 years. performed 30 songs and also told about their history. and they could still sing.

Amazing show! The music, videos, and light show were all fabulous!

I was transported back in time when life was good. I could not stop singing with them and remembering where I was at that time, when each song was sung.

Music was great!! loved backround screen. sound was a little off and a little to loud. could have done without the actors reenactment , the wigs and garb look silly not cool. would have liked more interaction with band members . also spent too much time trying to figure out who was who by pics of their youth. youth pics of each member when they were talking,or names at pics. would have been more effective. also more info would have been nice . are they married etc... it was advertised as a play the band members could have done some kind of reenactment to incorperate this theme so it was more than a concert. still it was fun and funny!!

If you're a Rascals fan, you have to seen them (if it's not too late). If they have the stomachs for the traveling, the Rascals really should tour a little (without the story videos), at least in the east. They could put together a killer 1-hour act at festivals. I thoroughly enjoyed the show, but have a few critical comments. The overall sound of the band was somewhat shrill. They need to work a little more on getting a deeper sound. They also needed a better bassist, ala Chuck Rainey, which would have given depth. They also needed real horns. The great Rascals records have great Atlantic Records horn players on them. The keyboard player they had playing the horn parts couldn't cut it. In my opinion, This was a glaring omission, particularly on songs like Girl Like You. If the Rascals are reading these reviews, I want to thank them for getting it together and baring feelings of their experience being the Rascals.

What a great show. Brought back a lot of great memories. The Rascals didn't miss a beat!!!! You could tell - the Rascals enjoyed doing it as much as we did seeing it!!

Each member gives 110% throughout the show. The interviews give background and color to the missing 40 years since they last performed. The music was well-rehersed, performed perfectly; and it is pure joy to see them reunited on stage.

The more you know the Rascals' catalog of songs, the more you will enjoy this concert. Excellent performance with background/history of group done in an informative and creative manner. So nice to have the original four members of the band performing together again after so many years - around 40 or so.

The show was great..we loved it...the mix was great except for the bass drum mic feeding back...loved the back-up singers

Thanks Steve V for putting this whole thing together. The show was phenomenal. The Young Rascals at the Garden State Arts center back in 1966 was the first concert I ever went to. I was 16 years old and BLOWN AWAY. Well they repeated that for me on April 24th. DO NOT miss this show if you were a fan. It was worth double what I paid!!!

was very very pleased with show very entertaining great show

Fantastic evening, music was amazingly good, the background images were fun to watch. A great night of remembering the old days!!!

Wonderful event if you remember this group- has been 40 years and they still sound great. Amazing. Good interplay of music with story line.

An era of great music......performed by true artists.....genuine musicians/singers....who follwed "their dream" and are passionate about their music. ....It was a great show ...kudos to Steven Van Zandt....... Well done show......back up singers and musicians were great as well..... More bio-concerts to come...a great concept!

Thank you Steven Van Zandt one of the most memorable nights on Broadway in a long long time...

Somethings are better than you remember. The music lives forever.

Great show!! Even my 13 year old likes it!! Nice blend of music and narration to bring us back in time!
