Stars, Stars, Stars!

Wow, Tuesday was a star-studded day.

Trying to describe Branson to someone who has not seen it: it is like Vegas, only more spread out; no gambling but all the glitz of the shows and shopping.

After we went through our obligatory presentation about the Blue Green Resorts....which are awesome....but we escaped unscathed! we went on to our lunch, then the afternoon show....see the logo below...wonderful impersonators. I was able to take pictures with no flash....and got some fairly descent pics.
This was Alan Jackson....he had me fooled! I thought that he was just the opener for the impersonators....and it was really him....but ah, no....not him....
This gal....for Tina Turner....was awesome. Don't think she was quite as high energy as the real thing....but nevertheless, very good.
Never listened much to Rod Stewart until yesterday...he was really good.
These Blues Brother's I thought were awesome. I can see why Justin likes them.
Now, Elvis was really not quite as good as the rest of the impersonators.... and probably because moi' is an Elvis oficianado....But, he was fun to listen to.
Now, as far as I'm concerned these guys were the high point of the whole week. They were so ver awesome. Loved every minute. We looked around at their personal theatre....saw it pretty well full. Last night was the first night of their 2009 season and they will only be here this time for 4 days. Looking at the faces....95% if the fans were 60 and older!!! Of course, the Oaks have been singing to the same people for 30 years....cuz they are the same age as their audience!
It was lots of fun to watch these guys. The guy on the right is that fabuloulous base.
We had a super time and enjoyed every minute.
