Terrific! Want to catch you all soon!

Wow! "Cruiser" is not an in an easy key for this vocalist to sing, but she did an amazing rendition! Love it. ❤🎶✌🤘

[@jukeboxhero26]

Agree 100%.

[@roberthollander4522]

Ah yes! I saw that. Thank you so much for posting. I wish I could make one of his shows but I’m down here in Florida 😂

@roberthollander4522 Comments like this are why I love filming, preserving, and sharing these great concerts. The music is meant to be enjoyed by everyone, especially when you miss the show. Thanks for watching and for commenting, Robert. Stay tuned...

Saw these guys last October. Loved every second. But if I remember correctly, Emily sang Drive, which I definitely prefer. Thanks for posting.

[@jukeboxhero26]

Interesting! I saw them last October, too. Now I'm curious 🤔 if the show I saw has Emily singing lead on "Drive." Will have to dig it up when I find the time. Thanks for watching and for commenting, Brian.

I love when Greg gets the beep in where it's not supposed to be (at 2:41) and shows us he's not a robot :) Actually, in all the videos I've ever seen of him and the Cars, i've never noticed a wrong note from Greg until this!

[@jukeboxhero26]

@roberthollander4522 Funny! The other show I have up here from 2023, he actually starts playing a different song ( I think "Cruiser") when the band starts playing "Touch and Go." Greg is a great guy, this is a good band and I enjoy seeing them in concert.

Did Greg sell Cars T-shirts etc at the Souvenir Area n did he take time out to sign Autographs after the Show...🤔 Ty

[@jukeboxhero26]

Yes, they all came out after the show. Got a nice pic 📸 with Greg. They sold shirts that said "Eddie Japan w/Greg Hawkes." Have 1 more video from this amazing concert on my Channel, including 2 from a show I saw last year. Thanks for watching and for commenting. Stay tuned...

Great sounds from Greg Great band

[@jukeboxhero26]

Agree 100%! And they all came out after the show, too. Got a nice pic 📸 with Greg. Have 1 more video from this amazing concert on my Channel. May out up another next week if there's enough interest. Thanks for watching and for commenting, Maryann. Stay tuned...

Nostalgia is great, the intonations are good, but there will never be another Benjamin. Will see him again one day.

[@jukeboxhero26]

People always complain on my Channel how Foreigner, 38 Special and I could probably list half a dozen others are only playing with 1 or 2 original members. For me, I'm happy just to see what's left of a lot of these 70's bands still out there. And they all came out after the show, too. Got a nice pic 📸 with Greg and he was happy to sign the set list, too. Anyhow, thanks for watching and for commenting.

[@alwaysknewtowearitwellfanc3650]

Not a complaint, only a tribute.🤗

[@diamonddavemusic]

The original comment does come off as a bit passive/aggressive, but I understand how you feel about Benjamin Orr. We all miss him terribly, but let's also appreciate any music that still features a "Hall of Fame" inductee like Greg Hawkes,...and this band is pretty amazing. Kudos to Greg and Eddie Japan! Long live the music of The Cars! ✌❤🎶🤘

@@diamonddavemusic Well said, Dave!

[@rotadyma]

I'm very surprised Greg Hawkes would be interesting in doing this. No Ric Ocasek or Benjamin Orr.

Or Easton and Robinson who are very much alive.

@@jukeboxhero26 for me it’s about the lead singer. If the lead singer is replaced or is deceased it’s not the same
