There are plenty of good tribute bands performing classic songs of the last few decades, many perform at local clubs and venues we have all seen and appreciated.
Taking it to the next level, touring bands such as The Australian Pink Floyd and The Bootleg Beatles to name two.
What is needed from the perfectly competent local tribute to playing Theatres and large venues?
The answer can be seen tonight at The New Theatre, Cardiff. A stunning venue requires stunning performances.
Yes, The Ultimate Classic Rock Show performs the crowd-pleasing Classics, but boy do they do it well!
The attention to detail of each song musically, Sound and lighting, screen graphics and video is just perfect.
Two numbers also contained a very lively performance from children of Cardiff and Vale Music Education Choir, just brilliant!
From the opening Dire Straits “Money for Nothing” to many classic bands of the 60’s through to 80’s from Queen, Eric Clapton, Wings,Led Zeppelin,Deep Purple and many many more.
This really is a trip of musical nostalgia perfectly performed on all levels. It is not a Surprise tonight as well as many other dates are sold out.
In terms of a review all I can say is this is a thoroughly enjoyable night if you like your classic Rock bands with a touch of the AOR classics from Fleetwood Mac, Toto, and The Eagles for good measure.
Next year the band is playing at The Millenium Centre on 31/3 24, Just be sure to get a ticket now as this will sell out, and deservedly so. This IS the Ultimate Classic Rock Show.
