Great night out. The Midtown Men put on a phenomenal show. Love the music, the charming personalities, the band. The 60's mix of music has a little contemporary kick. There is just enough Four Seasons amongst other top artists from they 60's. Highly recommend.

Terrible: Midtown Men with Pacific Symphony Orchestra December 2021

Sadly it was about equivalent to an amateur karaoke night in terms of vocal performance and quality. These guys are all twinkle and no talent. There were a few nice sections of doo-wop harmonies, but that was it. They introduce each other with all this hype of their Tony Award wins/nominations and lead roles on Broadway making you expect to hear great performances and every time I'm like 'this guy?? How did he ever get any roles???" The Frankie Valli impersonator had the most screeching, grunty, nasal version of falsetto for those high notes, it was both annoying, sad, and terrible. This cash-grab of a program extorts those with any fond memories of the Jersey Boys show, and will make you hate the memory of the show you previously enjoyed. This program needs to cease and desist so please do NOT go, and please someone tell these guys to MOVE ON. If the tickets weren't so expensive, and if it wasn't my in-laws' treat, I would not have sat through the entire show. Many around us did not

MIDTOWN MEN LIVE AT THE MAC: College of DuPage, Glen Ellyn, IL

I TOTALLY AGREE WITH: 1.0 star rating Jim from Clearwater, FL So I have copied his review. Hes said it all! WHere do I start, The band was awful. THe men in the group really think they are big stars, Meanwhile, I can't even name them. They all sounded horrible. I think it should be illegal for them to advertise and promote them being part of Jersey Boys when they do a lackluster show that is like watching a bad Karaoke performance. They were off key, sang all horrible songs, very few of Frankie Vallie's and the few they did sing sounded terrible. I hope Valli sues them and makes them cease from using his show to sell their tickets to their rotten performance. Most of the night they just talked about how accomplished they were, how they were either nominated or won Tony Awards. Well, good for you, but the garbage show you are doing now isn't worthy of any awards, possibly the Gong Show maybe. If I could give no stars I would, so they got 1 star from me. Talk about a waste of 130 bucks.

What a disappointment

My husband and I saw this group in Chicago this past weekend. What a terrible show. The instrumentation was far too loud, and the singers did not seem to be able to harmonize with each other. The "Frankie Valli" singer's voice was flat and very nasal. They spent at least half of the time on stage congratulating each other on past roles. The songs they chose were, at best, minor 60s hits. We left very disappointed.

I saw Midtown Men in Easton, PA and I agree with most of the comments on this site with the exception of the band. I thought the band was terrific specially the horn section. They had very few moments to shine but when the large ego Midtown Men let them, they took over the show. Vocals were all over the place and enough with the congratulations of past performances. Indeed very disappointing!

NOT WORTH A TICKET

I went tonight to the Summer Pops in San Diego to hear what was supposed to a group that is a tribute to the great songs of the sixties. I've been going to these concerts for over 30 years and this is by far the worst I've ever seen. Their dancing was out of sync, and the singing was off key half the night! Plus when people go to hear a tribute band, they want to hear the ORIGINAL version of a song because it takes us back in memory to those days - NOT wanted is a group who think they can take the original scores and melodies and add their own twists on it! We didn't pay good money to hear Midtown Men's version of hits! Its pretty obvious others felt the same way as a lot of people picked up and left at intermission, and the applause was the lowest I've ever heard at the Pops!! VERY DISAPPOINTING!
