Sadly Jay lost his voice (laryngitis?) and the rest of the band was average. The crowd’s enthusiasm was high in light of the marginal sound quality. No dancing, just a geriatric standing room only mosh pit in front of the stage. Perhaps the next performance will be better.

Yup, we stopped by for a few. The security guard did say it was the largest crowd he had seen. I was not aware Jay had “laryngitis”. I was suprised people stuck around as we got there late and heard about one song and left. Yikes, retire gracefully your 70!

The largest crowd I ever witnessed at LSL was back in the fall of 2019 when Gary Sinise and the Lt. Dan band played a free concert to raise money for veterans. Gary was the guy who played Lieutenant Dan in the Forest Gump movie. It was a very impressive show.

Jay Osmond, Never heard of him as a solo singer, yes he " Was " part of the " Osmonds " when they were a group. that's it.
What is the " Big Deal " of this guy other than once being in a Group upteen years ago.
Peter Nero, a Very Successful Grammy Winner American Pianist & Pops Conductor lived here in The Villages, kept a Low Profile for obvious reasons.
Along comes this guy Jay Osmond & it's a Big Deal .... Huh ?????

Was there for the first set. I was looking forward to this but it was unwatchable. Jay lost his voice before the show even started but there were other singers and they did a few "classics" to fill in, but the band was terrible, the sound was terrible . . . left before first set was finished when he announced a 20 minute break.

I soon realized that I didn't know most of the Osmond songs but the lady next to me appreciated it and enjoyed it.

And what's up with the sound system? It was really bad in front but actually sounded better behind the stage as I was walking away.

Don't bother going to a future show unless you are a diehard Osmond fan.
