Gah! I was just thinking about going to Ontario in July, though end of the month might be a little late.

Wow, Went to the BB concert last night in Niagara Falls. It was GREAT !! The musicians, backups singers and Elwood & Zee really worked up the crowd. It was kind of funny as Elwood and Zee both dropped their microphones a couple of times, plus Zee accidentally kicked Elwoods mic right out of his hand....
The Casino did an excellent job at promoting the concert.... The ushers all had black pants, white shirts, black hats and sunglasses. They even had a 71 Monaco bluesmobile (my old creation) parked at the entrance to the casino for both nights.
I showed up at the valet parking, in my new 77 Monaco bluesmobile and they waived the valet charges. A real classy place.
All in all it was a great night
Cheers, dugal
PS I think Dan is doing some signing today at the Fairview Mall in St. Catherines around 2pm

I was thrilled to see the show last night.
I was fortunate to be close to the stage.
Everyone had a great time. I enjoyed being
able to sing along. My husband who is usually
very reserved really got into the show and
was astounded by the amount of physcial activity
Jim and Danny performed.
Kudos to the Jim, Danny, and the Sacred Hearts.
Amazing amount of talent on the stage.
I have a question. Does anyone know who
the two young women were who Jim brought
from off stage for a couple songs. Both were
blonds and one was named Abby. Just wondering
if they are related to Jim or Danny.
I really liked how Jim would just go right into the
audience and goof with whomever he found.
If they come back next year I will be there.
I was going to see Danny in St.Catharines but
I don't have a ride.
Great show, I will never forget it.

Did Elwood or Zee play any harmonica?
And were they wearing the "proper" suits (or do they always for shows)?

Casino Rama in May 2004 and July 2005, Niagara Fallsview Casino in July 2006 ... and it sounds like all these shows went just great. I'd say it looks good for them coming back to the area again next year! I'll be there!

Elwood played harmonica. Jimmie "The Dynamic" Wood also played harmonica. The Sacred Hearts are amazing.
They wore the traditional Blues Brothers Suits.
Even the ushers at show wore Blues brothers outfits.
If they come here again I will be there.
