BOBBY VINTON IN CONCERT:
Legendary pop crooner Bobby Vinton skyrocketed to success in the early ‘60s with a string of wistful hits that established him as “The Polish Prince,” a nod to his Polish-American heritage. More than half a century later Vinton’s voice has the same romantic power that helped carry him to the top, especially on hits like “Mr. Lonely” and "There, I've Said It Again." Taking the stage with a nine-piece orchestra conducted by his son and dueting with his talented daughters, Vinton will treat fans to “Blue Velvet” and all the rest of his greatest hits on a highly anticipated string of 2014 tour dates.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Born in Pennsylvania in 1935, Vinton inherited an interest in music from his bandleader father, and his parents encouraged his musical development by tying his daily allowance to the completion of clarinet practice. Forming his first band at age 15, he earned enough money playing shows to put himself through school at Duquesne University, where he earned a degree in music composition. After several unsuccessful early releases, Vinton took matters into his own hands for the promotion and distribution of 1962’s “Roses Are Red (My Love),” with fantastic results – the song peaked at No. 1 on the pop charts, remaining there for four weeks. A string of chart-topping classics would follow, including “Mr. Lonely” and his best-known recording “Blue Velvet.” The years have treated Vinton’s dreamy voice in a manner befitting a prince, and fans at his upcoming shows can expect a truly stellar walk down memory lane.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
“Bobby's voice is just as good as ever and the playlist included all his big hits. He came down into the audience and interacted allowing photographs, kisses, hugs, whatever anyone wanted…”
“Music with a melody, a classy orchestra, and I was amazed at his instrumental abilities. That was a pleasant surprise. Wonderful that his family was a part of the show.”
“He looks the same as he did 50 years ago, is in great shape, has the strongest voice ever, sang all his big ones and covered many others! His son leads the 9 piece orchestra that backs him and his 2 daughters sing. And…he plays the trumpet, sax and clarinet like nobody's business!”
great atmosphere with a few Christmas songs worked in.... staff were fun and entertaining as well... It was a christmas present to my mom that she thoroughly enjoyed.. we had a great night
Bobby Vinton is 79 years old and is still as good as the first time I saw him about 35 years ago. His children that perform in the show with him are very talented too! I would highly recommend this show to anyone who still remembers him.
After seeing dozens of "Name" entertainer's, the entertainers that have big personalities always results in the best show. Bobby Vinton has a great personality and has the audience rocking from his first song. He belies his age with the energy of a thirty year old. His backup band in Windsor was probably the best backup band we have heard. The sound was rich and just right for his volume. Bobby's daughter is his backup singer and she puts the Idol singers to shame. Bobby's son is his bandleader and sings a song or two. In addition to his numerous hits, Bobby and his daughter sang the hit song from Phantom of the Opera. What a surprisingly great rendition of the song accompanied by the excellent 8 or 9 piece orchestra which includes wind instruments. Bobby also played the saxophone, clarinet, trumpet and piano, all very professionally. If you are a fan of the 50's and 60's music, Bobby Vinton is the entertainer to see.
Excellent entrrtainer, thoroughly enjoyed it.would see him again
An amazing man. He put on a great show, told some jokes. Went into the audience gave some hugs. At his age he still sings like a song bird. Would definetly go see him again.
We have seen him before and thought he was great. We were really looking forward on seeing him. My husbabands mother died so we could not make it. My other friends went and told me how wonderful he was. .........it is to bad they casino Rama does offer something that when you bought Olivia Newton John tickets and Bobby Vinton tickets they don't offer you some tickets of your choice. Love him.
Bobby Vinton is a true entertainer in every sense of the word. His daughter, his son and the band were fantastic. The interaction with the crowd and his personal experiences made you think and feel that you know everything about him. Totally loved the show. Thank you.
This was truly an amazing show. Absolutely more than expected. I would definately not hesitate to see Bobby Vinton again. Music was great, brought back lots of memories. I loved how Bobby had all the people involved in the songs, and demonstrated good humour as well. Bobby you're still a great entertainer!!!!
The show was one of the best I've seen in a long time. We saw him a couple of years ago as well and found him very entertaining. This year was absolutely phenomenal. He surprised us all with his versatility. Who knew he played so many instruments. Who knew he had such a wide range of music gendre's that he sings with such ease. Loved to hear all about the various people and places he encountered during his career and where he was when certain songs played were #1. He seemed to get better as the evening went on. Sorry to see the end of the show. Not only was he fantastic but the voice his daughter has is incredible. Talent runs in the family. The Phantom of the Opera piece they did together blew me away. I thought she was even better than the original singer. Again I can't say enough good things about the show. I would recommend it to anyone. Loved it.........
Excellent show - wish it was longer. Thorougly enjoyed the whole show.
