If you like country music and you like to laugh, Joey Riley's show is a must see. The music is great. Joey's imitation of George Jones had me laughing for days. I intend to see Joey's show many more times. And if he comes to Louisiana, I will make every effort to see him here too.

Joey Riley is funny. He has a 2 pm show at the Branson Mall theater. He is mainly known for being aprt of the Mickey Gilley show and now has his own show. This is his 2nd year at that theater and packs the house. The crowd loves him and his state presences is very genuine. If he sees you have a camera pointed your way you will get what he calls " a kodak moment" with his funny faces. He sings some silly songs and impersonates those from the Grand Ole Opry. He wrote serious song called 'The Wall" and its about his trip to the vietnam wall. Very good show very funny man!

I really wasn't for sure which 2 pm show to go to. There are so many wonderful shows to see. I picked Joey's show. I have seen him at the Mickey Gilley show and just loved him there so maybe a show all his own would be a great time. I was right. This show is wonderful. He is at the Branson Mall music theater. They have redone the entire inside and the seats are now up to date. Joey is incredible and sings this funny song about not having to keep the toilet seat down. His brother plays the guitar and even owns the eating place next to the theater. Joey has a great band and lets them all shine throughout the show. Joey does impressions of some old time country singers as well as Elvis. lol. I love watching his facial expressions and will do a silly face for a camera pointing his way. He is awesome and is the best 2 pm show I have seen.

I'd give Joey a 10 if you would let me rate him that high. He's got the best show in town, and I know Wylie, TX is proud of him! His entire band is wonderful, and Kaci Bays is the best female vocalist I've heard in years. I can hardly wait until I retire next spring and move to Springfield so I can attend his show weekly. You can bet I am promoting him around this area of Texas and will continue to do so whenever I move to MO. What a talent! I remember seeing Joey as a youngster performing at his parent's show in Wylie, you could see his growing talent at that time.

We attended the Joey Riley show on June 19th. We found this show to be one of the best in Branson this year. The only thing we did not care about was the Elvis impersonation. However, just about every show in Branson now does an Elvis bit and they are all boring. We would recommend the Joey show to all fans of all ages. One major highlight of the Joey show is Kaci Bays. She seems to be the best keep secret in Branson! What a great voice and super stage presence. The Branson Mall Theater has been remodeled and is now one of the best venues in Branson. The sound system is great as is the lighting. We had not attended any type of show at this location during any time over the past ten years and were surprised at the quality of the mall theater. If the performance we attended is any measurement of success, the Joey Riley show ought to continue for quite some time.
