My wife and I were there for the early show. Nice to hear those old favorites. I'd say it was a good show, although their voices aren't what they used to be.
I'll give it a B+.

I saw them the first time around in '67 and their voices were not what they used to be then, either! It's difficult to recreate all those harmonies singing live with that many voices.

They performed here in September 2010 and I was disappointed in their performance then.

1) Loved hearing all those old songs and remembering what they meant to me.
2) They seemed like really nice people and all appeared to get along so well.
3) They were absolutely Flat at least 3 times. Sadly, I probably won't go again.

Saw them last year and thought they were terrible. The Association sells out and Felix Cavaleri of the Rascals (in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame) plays to a half full house. Go figure.
Also, Peter Noone is the best show that comes to the Savannah Center.
