Like any impressionist who does dozens of celebrities, many of the impressions were superlative, some were good, and a few were near misses. However, Mr. Stevens puts on a high energy, extremely entertaining show. When I saw it, it was free for veterans. How can you not like Tom Stevens? <drfecht916 -at- aol.com> - Kansas City MO USA - Added 03/28/09 - [64.12.116***] 7983 Date Seen: 10/08 I don't know what show the previous person who posted attended but I cannot disagree more with his comments. My wife and I went to see Tom Stevens at the Riviera and were thoroughly entertained for 90 minutes. We bought the tickets at the 2 for 1 kiosk at the Fashion Show Mall and definitely got our monies worth. We have seen Danny Gans a number of times and thought Tom Stevens was on the same level, if not better. Danny Gans sings two or three lines of a song when he is imitating someone while Tom Stevens sings the entire song. He did a great job with the over 35 celebrity impressions and has a great voice. Additionally he makes eye contact with each audience member and engages them throughout the performance. His face takes on each person he imitates and it is extraordinary the way he becomes that person. Close your eyes and you would think the celebrity he is imitating is in the room. We highly recommend this show to anyone who wants to hear great songs, laugh and take a stroll down memory lane hearing the likes of Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., Johnny Carson, Bobby Darin, Cher, George Burns, Jackie Gleason, Tom Jones, Engelbert, etc. Enjoy! <vleta -at- aol.com> - The Villages FL USA - Added 11/13/08 - [64.12.116***] 7933 Date Seen: 10/08 - Bad Show We saw "DEAN AND FRIENDS" at 4 pm on 10-22-08. I expected Tom Stevens to treat us to Dean Martin for more than one song (about 3-4 minutes). He sang "Everybody Loves Somebody" then went straight into a barrage of impressions of other singers and movie personalities. Some impressions were very good, and some should be excluded from his show. His Dean Martin, Johnny Mathis, Robert Dinero, Tony Bennett and Louis Armstrong were among his best. He should give up on doing Frank Sinatra, Engelbert Humperdinck and Tom Jones, because they all fell short. He did a so-so Neal Diamond impression, but Jay White already does an excetional Neal Diamond. He also did 2 Elvis songs, but.... Elvis impersonators are all over the place and his Elvis isn't quite good enough to be spending so much time on. "My Way" by Elvis? Again? That one's just about worn out already. He also did about 10 minutes of "Phantom Of The Opera" (Yawn) that I wish I didn't have to sit through. His impression of Tom Jones was hideous and basicall ridiculed his mannerisms. I didn't like it. His Engelbert... Well, it just plain didn't work. His Sinatra? .... no resemblence at all. Willy Nelson bordered on being intolerable. I would recommend that Tom Stevens do more DEAN MARTIN, which is what his website promotes and what the advertising suggests he will do, and what WE WANTED TO SEE HIM DO. He spent more time doing Elvis, and the Phantom than doing Dean Martin. The small audience was appreciative of most impressions and caricatures. Maybe I'm a little more critical than most, but I like being "Entertained" and have seen many, many shows. If I were to grade this show, I would give if a D+ or maybe a C- at best. Not quite worth the $55 ticket cost. There are some better singing impersonators in Vegas, and Tom Stevens could be one of them with an act more focused on his strengths rather than such a mediocre variety. <rschultz -at- hoodconstruction.com> - Columbia SC USA - Added 10/28/08 - [66.83.184***] 7925 Comment Disclaimer: No attempt has been made to verify or assure the accuracy of the above comments.
