My cheeks still hurt this morning from smiling so much at last night's concert at the O Zone Nightclub inside the Odawa Casino Resort in Petoskey. I have to give the casino staff credit - whoever booked "The Apples" sure knew what they were doing. This "Tribute to the Beatles" was a blast!
From the moment they took the stage, "Ringo, John, Paul and George" had the audience swaying. clapping and for many of us, taking a trip down memory lane. Dressed in the black suits and skinny black ties reminiscent of their appearance some 45 years ago on the Ed Sullivan Show (remember it was broadcast in black & white), these guys put on a fantastic show with favorites like I Want to Hold Your Hand and Hard Days Night. And when asked to chime-in on Yellow Submarine, I think every guest in the sold-out room, was singing at the top of his/her lungs. One couple moved to the front of the crowd during several songs and showed us some terrific dance moves - somehow that added to the fun of the evening.
A standing ovation got us one extra song after an incredible hour and fourty five minute non-stop performance. Yoko and Linda would have been proud.
Hopefully the Odawa Casino Resort will bring these boys back again. Until then, keep an eye on their upcoming entertainment schedule and plan on a fun night out. Kudos to the waitress, too, who never let my soda glass get empty!
