Branson Brothers LiverPool Legends


Branson Brothers Show

After finding out that Jimmy Ponder was producing a new show late last year,
I knew I had to go and see it this year as I knew it would be full of great
comedy and great musicians. And I have to admit, Jimmy didn't let my husband
and I down in our expectations.

Although we the first half isn't our favorite with the all the songs that
are done, it moves quicky and sounds sharp! And how could we not enjoy it
when Terry Sanders aka Homer Lee and many other characters in this show
continues to show up during the first half. This man keeps us laughing
through the entire show. I swear the mans mind is never resting, he is
always taking in things from people to add to his routine. We were so glad
that Grandma Belluha was back in the show - and you never know what she will
say! However, I do have a few favorite songs in the first half, like I
Honestly Love You (Diana), Bluest Eyes in Texas (Jimmy) and whenever Dee
sings, my granddaughter swoons, so I would say anything he sings would be ok
with me.

The band does a wonderful solo spot in the first half that is a combo of
lots of great hits and let's each member show off some talent. I just wish
each portion of the song lasted longer and that Brad Allen on drums would do
wipeout. This man puts so much energy into his performance, I can see why
he is up for musician of the year. I have seen this man play at other gigs
around town and play a song he never has before and if he wouldn't admit it
to you, you wouldn't know because he never misses a beat. He truly deserves
it - you can tell that he feels the music and frankly I think he gets into
the music more than some other singers I have seen in town and he doesn't
even have a mic. The entire band plays so well together, you would think
they have been playing together for years.

Once the second half starts my husband and I really start to get into the
music. I think my favorite is when Andre sings Driftaway. The harmony of
these three guys is great, but I really love it when they get into the R&B,
those guys all sound so wonderful. We also really enjoy it when Jimmy comes
out with both Diana and Natalie to do Tony Orlandos Yellow Ribbon. Natalie
is so cute when she sings 9 to 5 you can tell that she is comfortable in the
comedy she is being asked to do. I love the songs they have chosen to end
the show, it is a true tribute to those serving our country.

I cannot wait to get back to Branson to see my favorite show the Branson
Brothers, especially to see Terry and Brad as the two of them are so much
fun to watch ... I know without a doubt I will be entertained. This show
and those nominated from the show are all winners in my eyes and I hope I
can be there the day awards are handed out.

Liverpool Legends' show rocks

Liverpool Legends' show rocks! They have the look, vintage instruments and personalities of the real Beatles. When you hear them, you won't believe the sound. You'll think it's the Beatles themselves.

All of the band members are kind and friendly. You'll get to meet them after the show. As an added bonus, you'll meet Louise Harrison. That's right! The real George's sister. Hearing her talk about her brother and the other Beatles, and why she wanted to manage this band, is something you'll never forget.

It's not a boring show where you have to sit and be quiet. They make sure everyone has a rockin' good time. They play songs from all of the eras and change their costumes and hairstyles to match.

If you've listened to Beatles music a lot and watched Beatles DVD's like we have, you'll see and hear that Liverpool Legends are no slopply cover band.

When you hear Kevin's voice you'll be amazed how much he sings like John. If you watch him closely you'll see he acts just like John too! He's awesome.

Then there's Davey as Paul. Just wait until you hear his rockin' numbers and then the smooth tunes! Not many singers can do both like Paul. And yes, he even plays a left- handed bass.

George is played by Marty. Watch as he plays every guitar solo, spot on. When he sings you'll forget it's not really George. Remember quiet George's little dance? Marty does! After seeing the show, you'll know why Louise wanted to "adopt" Marty.

Big nose and all, Greg does a great Ringo. The head-bob, the shoulder move and Ringo's drumming style will have you bobbing your head too. Maybe you'll even sing along to "Yellow Submarine" as the bubbles float by!

Don't forget about Bob! Who's Bob? We won't spoil the surprise, but Bob plays all the extras that were on the Beatles' recordings.

Even if you weren't a Beatles fan or are too young to really know who the beatles are, but like rock-n-roll, you'll love the show. Liverpool Legends will make you feel like you just saw The Beatles live! Great music, great guys, great band, great show!
