Okay, so we had another Double Take Impersonator Show last night…..it was a blast! It’s always more fun, when the audience rocks! We had a couple of large groups, one of 22 and one of 15, and they were out to have a good time.
I’ve never heard so many people singing along with Karen Carpenter and Neil Diamond! A few got up and started doing a line dance to Neil Diamond. (Yeah, yeah, I know, we’re all dating ourselves, but who cares?) And when Mr. Motown hit the stage…they sang even more! But then, this is the Motor City, and we remember the entire Motown Sound.
Sure, there were a few glitches (there always are)…like our sound man couldn’t get out of work as early as he needed to, and we started late, but once we got rolling, we rocked.
When Cher was working the room, singing to all the men, some got up and danced with her. Camera phones were snapping pictures right and left….I always tell everyone, take all the pictures you want, and post one on Facebook, saying “This is where I am, RIGHT NOW!” Hey, free publicity is always good!
Energy breeds energy. The audience was feeding off the energy of the performers, and the performers were feeding off the energy of the audience. It’s a give and take situation. By most standards, our audience is not young…but their energy speaks volumes about them….age doesn’t matter at all….it’s all attitude….and they all had the attitude that they were gonna have fun! I’ve seen groups of twenty somethings who couldn’t hold a candle to these folks when it comes to having fun. That, and us older folks have had more experience at having fun. Every generation of twenty somethings thinks they invented fun. Wrong!
So a huge “Thank You” to all who attended the show last night, you made OUR night!
