About

HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS IN CONCERT:

Following their successful 2013 Sports Anniversary Tour, '80s pop rock icons Huey Lewis and the News thrilled fans with the announcement of additional dates in 2014. Renowned for their stellar musicianship and the charisma of frontman Huey Lewis, the band has become a live favorite for their rollicking sets of upbeat '80s classics.

FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:

“Huey Lewis and the News is still the heart of Rock and Roll. Huey still manages to have the crowd on their feet and sounds absolutely the same as he always does.”

“Huey Lewis still has the energy and passion that he had in the 1980s…No frills, just the music. Huey engages the crowd nicely. It was a magnificent show!”

“They rocked a packed house for a good long time…A great mixture of vocals, guitar, horns, and harmonica. They played all of the favorites, along with some new ones, and kept the crowd on their feet the whole show.”

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

After their songs “The Power of Love” and “Back in Time” were both featured prominently in the 1985 sci-fi classic Back to the Future, Huey Lewis and the News were all but assured a place as one of the most defining acts of the decade. They delivered on that promise, topping the album charts with Sports in 1983 and Fore! in 1986 and racking up some of the era's seminal hits with “I Want a New Drug,” “Hip to Be Square,” and “Stuck With You."

    Huey was awesome!

    by Bamb on 2009-07-15The Colosseum at Caesars Windsor - Windsor

    Huey Lewis and the News has always been one of my favorite groups, so I knew that I would enjoy the concert. But my husband was very pleasantly surprised at how many of the sangs he knew and what a great time he had! They have a way of while playing the great Oldies, they don't appear like Oldies...and I think they enjoyed themselves as much as the audience did!

    by accll on 2009-07-15The Colosseum at Caesars Windsor - Windsor

    Excellent show! Huey did a fantastic show and related to the crowd. Only downfall was that at times the music drowned out his singing. On the whole I recommend !

    Huey Lewis and the News

    by Batman on 2009-07-15The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    My first time at the Avalon Ballroom and thought the venue was very nice. Not too big so you are up close enough to appreciate the artist. We were on the floor about 3/4 from the stage. Huey was in his glory. I've admired his music for some time but I don't think he will be touring again after this round, was evident he can't drive to some of those notes any more but hey he was good none the less. I would say a 3.5 star out of 5.

    Huey Still Workin' For A Livin' ---- What A Show!!

    by Craziegirl on 2009-07-15The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    Huey Lewis and the News is still the best "bar band" I've ever seen! I'm 33 yrs old and while many of my friends enjoy the big fluffy concerts, I have and always will drop everything and run to a Huey Lewis concert. It was my actual birthday that evening and there was no other way I'd rather spend it then listening to the sweet sounds of Huey and his band. He has soul, style, class and above all he is still so handsome! The venue is great to see a concert although the crowd that follows huey is either retired or near it so most of them want to just sit still. However this time around there were some enthusiastic fans around me which allowed me to really enjoy the show and dance the night away while enjoying his music. With so many hits to choose from it was hard to cover all of them in such a short time frame (concert was only 1 1/2 hrs including encores) but when the bass started pumping like a heartbeat The Heart of Rock N' Roll started the show with passion and we couldn't wait for more! Hit after hit and even some new accapella arrangements to slow things down at times. I can't wait until he returns again in the near future.

    Interaction with the crowd and the sound was just as if you were listenting to your Ipod. I would see them again in a heartbeat!

    Huey Lewis and the News

    by FallsviewRegular on 2009-07-15The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    Second time we have seen Huey and the boys, and they delivered once again. The venue is excellent for being close to the stage, and they put on a high energy show with all of their hits, and some new stuff as well.

    Back in Time

    by Riverrider on 2009-07-15The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    Super entertainers. They played the past hits and a few good new songs in the 90 minutes or so. Forgot how many hits Huey and the News had in the 80's. All night, ya say, I remember that song.

    Excellent excellent concert!

    by tooter on 2009-07-15The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    We had seen Huey 3 times before but never at The Avalon at the Fallsview. It is a great venue and we had terrific seats. The concert was just great, high energy, upbeat, never a dull moment. He and his band are great performers and we won't hesitate to go again!

    The old guys can still do it!

    by Newnews on 2009-07-14The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    Huey can still belt it out. The voice is still there. And the sax. The band is exceptional. Played the hits that we came to see and hear. The young lead guitar player was incredible and was introduced with a surname that was not Lewis but we think he is Huey's son. Yes? Nice intimate theatre.

    Huey Sails Into Niagara Falls

    by TempoGuy on 2009-07-14The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    Huey is starting to show his age but hey, aren't we all? On Thursday June 11th Huey Lewis and the News played to a sold out crowd at the Avalon Ballroom in Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort. This was my 12th Huey concert and although not my personal favourite, still worth the price of admission. The band was tight, Huey sounded great (for the most part) and the crowd seemed to realy enjoy the show. As we all are, Huey's begin to age and his voice seemed pitchy in places. In others, you close your eyes and its 1985 all over again. The band played a fair number of lessor known and cover songs which I found upsetting. With such a wide selection of hits to choose from, why not pack in as many as you can and send the crowd home happier? All the mega-hits were there as well as a catchy reworked version of "Do You Believe In Love". No Jacob's Ladder, no Walking on a Thin Line or Hip to be Square. Great show, great theatre just wanted more of the hits. I'd definitely go back and see him again.

    Great show

    by jojoal on 2009-07-14The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    The show was very good. I hadn't seen HLN in 20 years so it was great to renew with what I like. Even if the original band isn't together anymore, they still put on a great show. My 2 little disappointments: The show was too short (1H15 min.) Huey is a little impersonal with the audience. Other than that I would go back to see them.

    Huey Lewis and the News - Wow!

    by Spunky58 on 2009-07-14The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    Huey Lewis and the News were truly spectacular!!!!! Took us back by sounding exactly as they did in our youth! Couldn't stop smiling and rocking for the whole show. We've wanted to see them for years and could never catch them on tour. The drive to Niagara was worth it and the venue is great.

    HUEY LEWIS....AMAZING

    by GABSEY on 2009-07-14The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    HUEY WAS AMAZING. EVERY SONG SOUNDED JUST LIKE THEIR CD'S. THE SEATING IN THE AVALON WAS SECOND TO NONE. THE LIGHTING AND ACOUSTICS WERE DEAD ON .I WOULD HIGHLY RECCOMEND GOING TO A CONCERT AT THE CASINO.

    Huey Lewis and the News

    by Jennifer1 on 2009-07-14The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    The show was amazing. I wanted to be on my feet the entire time but security wouldn't us. They all had so much energy but my only caution would be that the show was way to short for the price. They only played for an hour an a half. If I had known the length I probably would not have paid that much.

    Huey Lewis & the News ROCKED!!!

    by DJHottRocks on 2009-07-14The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    Well, I had missed Huey's Casino Rama concert a few yrs ago because of a bad winter storm. But last nights concert was totally worth the wait! This guy did not stop moving all over the stage. I felt I was watching the 1hr 30 min workout...lol Huey is in amazing shape for his age. There was enough energy on stage that this concert could have lit the entire Niagara Falls area and then some...lol My 2 fav songs that Huey played were Power of Love and I want A New Drug. But I guess Heart Of Rock & Roll is a fav too. But then again.. his entire set list was totally amazing! They played a new song and it went over really well. Sort of a bluesy number. I will be wanting to see Huey again if he comes back to Ontario, Canada! By the way.. my seats... were front row to the right of centre! AMAZING !!!

    Huey Lewis and the News

    by SirRivers on 2009-07-14The Avalon Ballroom Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    Was a memorable moment back in time for me and my wife!! We started dating 27 years ago when she was 15, fell in love and well 3 children later, married 20 years and listening to Huey and the boys made us feel younger then we ever have! Always been fans of them, listened to them while dating and just enjoying the era. Thankyou for our memorable moments, and help us recreate all new ones for our 20th anniversary!! Was such a wonderful evening.
