This show is simply wonderfull!!!! The performances were flawless and really brought back memories (in my case of my high school days listening to the great John R radio program). I was lucky(?) enough to be picked to play Bill in the "Don't Mess with Bill" number - seriously, it was fun and an experience I will treasure always. See this show!!!!

This is the worst show I've seen since no one is a real member of any group and they duke the people into thinking they are the real thing and their not. What a mess?

I thoroughly enjoyed the show. It really was the high-light of my trip to Vegas. I would recommend the show to anyone that enjoys the old songs. Each group was fantastic. There's not a bad seat in the whole house. I was on the back row and felt like I had the best seat in the house. Don't miss it!!

Saw this show 10-05, 05-06, 11-06. plan to see it every time I am in Vegas. I love it! Fantastic production! Tipped usher and got front row seats. Well worth it, but all seats are great. You feel like part of the show, a lot of interaction with performers.

What a great show!!! Forget that these are not the original performers. It doesn't matter. They are all so talented and apparently love what they do. We went for the Golden Circle tickets--more expensive, touted as being preferred seating. Well, we were sitting right at the foot of the stage, but we were all crammed in together. Granted, we were at a table, but after looking at the entire theater, we realized the extra money just wasn't worth it. While we were smashed together in uncomfortable chairs, the rest of the audience had upholstered seating!!! But, once the show started, you forgot about how crowded you were. The performers are fabulous. Great show!!!!

We really enjoyed this show. The Drifters were the best, but all were entertaining. The room is OLD Las Vegas. Hosts and ushers expect a tip. Tipping to get a better seat is a rip off. Forget about it. All seats are good. Although, the entertainers are not the originals, they do an excellent job of singing the classics.

very enjoyable show, brough back quite a few fond memories for a 50 year old and his wife. for us, the drifters stole the show. unfortunately they did not sing one of our favorites, saturday night, but it still was a very good show. try to get 1/2 price tickets and day of show outlets and no need to sit in the more expensive seats, we sat on the left side, three rows from the top and the sound was great.

I saw the Platters/Coasters/Drifters perform at a casino in Iowa. One of the best shows i've seen in a long time. When I'm in Vegas i always seem to miss this show.. i'll be returning in September and i'll be sure to see them at the Sahara. You don't want to miss it!!

I was really excited to go to the Platters, Coasters and Drifters show, as I am somewhat "elderly" and remember the originals and their recordings. I was not disappointed in the Coasters or the Drifters, but the "Platters" were TERRIBLE. They have no ties to the original Platters (which I learned later) and didn't even come close to the same vocal stylings of the Platters. They did feature a young woman with a terrific voice (better than the male lead singer). The Drifters were FANTASTIC, and I enjoyed the Coasters. For my money, they could drop the Platters, and have a two (2) group show. It could only improve the production. I gave this a good rating because of the Drifters, they're worth the money alone.

I'm only 29 and didn't remember a lot of these songs but still greatly appreciated the show. I was clapping, smiling and singing along the entire show. You will not regret catching this one. It'll get you in a better mood. I was wondering why we were sitting in the back though, so a ten spot is all you need huh? Everyone in our section got their tickets at tix 4 tonight. Really funny. :) Every seat is a good one though, smaller showroom.

I caught this show when I was in Vegas for a business conference. I totally enjoyed the entire show. The groups looked sharp and had tight harmonies, just like in the 50s & 60s. The biggest surprise was seeing Lewis Lymon, whom I consider a doo-wop icon, singing with the Drifters. Lewis, as a teenager had a couple of hit records with his group the Teenchords (I’m So Happy, Lydia, Honey Honey), and of course his brother Frankie recorded that beautiful song “Why Do Fools Fall in Love”. Seeing Lewis singing and dancing was worth the price of admission by itself. I also enjoyed it when the groups came out to the lobby to talk and pose for pictures with the audience. Great show, don’t miss it.

What a terrific show. We picked up half price tickets at "tix2night", slipped the maitre d' a ten and got seated in the mid section of the theater seats one row back from the front. There were some great old Vegas pictures on the way into to the Congo room. While not the original members, each group is faithful to those wonderful songs and harmonizing of the 50s. They put on one heck of a show and is well worth the money. As the band members pointed out, you can understand all of the words, they don't use profanity and their pants are not sagging in the back.

It brought back so many memories. GREAT SHOW!

Great show, the three group were top notch. Each group went through
their hits. I know they're not the original members, but nonetheless a very
entertaining show.
