Three Dog Night is still worth seeing...they play most of the classics except Eli's coming which should have been on the list. Our show started late and ended with total play time less than an hour and one half so it left the fans wanting more. What we did hear was great though. Check them out!
It was great knowing and sing every song. There new blues song was amazing! Fun hearing stories about how their songs.
A day at the fair made complete with Three Dog Night's perfomance .....taken back to the earier days of our youth ...many of us "boomers" needed to go back and remember the carefree days of summer. And rocking and rolling with Three Dog was just the escape we needed to let go...re group and get ready for another week of mid-life living.. THANKS....I NEEDED THAT!
For a band that was one of the most popular and top selling from the late 60's early 70's era, their popularity has faded in the 21st Century with limited airplay and limited consideration as one of the premier super groups of its time. In listening to their concert at the Pacific Amphitheater you quicky began to realize all the hit songs they had and their significant contribution to the music culture during their hayday. I was pleasently surprised how their vocal tone quality have held up for a band that has been performing for over 40 years. We went with a large group of friends and we had a fun and entertaining evening. Only drawback was that Pacific has a early curfew so the concert was rather short. Worth seeing these guys if you haven't in recent years, before they neede a wheelchair.
All of their voices were as strong, powerful, and in harmony as the 60's. So MANY MANY hits; I enjoyed them even more than as a fan back then. Their "21st Century" act was hilariously fantastic.
I am actually an 80's rocker chick-but hey I am always up for some good music, right? 3 Dog Night actually was surprisingly good. You tend to forget how many great songs they have actually made! I especially loved the song they turned into a rap-that guy can rap-who knew? Anyway, great show-great songs!!!
they played awsome,sounded great, alot of soul and enthusiasm in them played all the great songs perfectly
great performance ... fun to hear songs I grew up with and the band sounded great !!
We were surprised to see the seating full, since other concerts of the same era were not packed out. It was full, they brought to crowd to their feet so many times, and they performed so well. We LOVED it!!
The band started 20 minutes after the scheduled start time and played a little over an hour. They did most of their hits and a few of their favorites that were not hits. A full house showed their appreciation with much applause and standing ovations during a few favorite songs. 3 Dog Night is my favorite oldies band, so with bias I give them a 5 star rating.
After 40 years of playing together and almost 35 since they really contributed to American music, Three Dog Night still shows while their little 5 to 6 year slice of Rock Music History is special. Though they continue to solider on without one dog (Chuck Negron), I was still very impressed with their ability to replicate the essential sound and quality of virtually all of the top 40 hits they played. It was also fun to see them pull from the trove of less recognizable tunes like "You Can Leave Your Hat On." They didn't perform Eli's Coming, Try a Little Tenderness, Pieces of April, Til the World Ends or The Show Must Go On, but they packed a lot into the hour and 20 minute session and my wife and I left feeling just a little bit younger and satisfied.
Three Dog Night put on a great show! They know how to entertain a crowd of all ages. I've seen them 5 times now, and they are still incredible!!!
They still got it!!! Sounded just like I remember even after all these years. They had great rapport with the audence. Made us all feel special.
The Penn's Peak Venue is phenominal. Easy in and out parking, great food, spectacular scenery. Go early to enjoy the beautiful outdoor balcony. Three Dog Night couldn't be in better form. There was nothing lost in their music or voices. They were personable and seemed to still enjoy performing as much as we enjoyed listening. It great to go to a concert where you can sing every song. Thanks, we will definitely go there again.
Great venue - Ritz Theater - Ybor City, Florida Three Dog Night presented a energized performance; I have never seen them in person, but after 40 years they are still going strong and their music is ageless. Great crowd;
Three Dog Night was the FIRST concert I ever saw when I was 13... the opening act was Jose Feliciano - who would have thought after 40 years this band would have me rocking all over again? Penn's Peak is a great venue and the next time TDN comes to town I will be there again... Awesome set and great fun!
They are as good as the old days. Very good show with all the great tunes from yesterday gone. Rap version of Mama Told Me was awesome. Shows they can change with the times and make fun of the new style of music. The setlist was perfect playing all the number ones plus some they thought should have been hits. Dialog with crowd was the best, showed they care and appreciate the fans. The meet and greet after the show was awesome, really getting to talk with the guys. Their voices are not quite as the younger days but they have adapted and sound very good.
It took longer to get to the concert than the concert itself. They were late starting and then only played for 1 hour and 20 minutes. We were very disappointed.
Venue was amazing! Show was outstanding. Vocal quality is top notch considering 40 yrs of touring! I would pay as much again to see it!
it was a good show but i wanted to hear more. they were good but it sometimes seemed they were going through the motions.
