We thought about going too, and the first thing I did was look up who was actually performing with the Blues Brothers Revue. After looking at their website I found that they are a traveling show produced by Akroyd etc. but made it clear they were not the real deal.

That was also made pretty clear by the low ticket prices for this event in comparison to other shows at The Sharon.

We didn't end up making it this time, but glad to see folks have had a good time.
