2015 Begins, The Temptations, The Four Tops, The Palace Theatre, Broadway, New York City, Motown, Baby Boomers in Heaven!!
24 hours in New York City!! Driving from Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, on Saturday, only took us about 4 hours. Easy driving and no traffic. I guess everyone was still waking up from New Year’s. New York City had slight rain but that did not stop Cindi and I from enjoying the City.
Looking forward to seeing The Temptations and The Four Tops at The Palace Theatre on Broadway where they were performing for one week only. It was the first time they would perform together. It was going to be fun!
“Baby Boomers found that their music, most notably Rock & Roll, was another expression of the generational identity. Our transistor radios were personal devices that allowed teenagers to listen to The Beatles and The Motown Sound.”
The Palace Theatre is located at 1564 Broadway. It opened in 1913 with so much history. Performing here meant that a performer had “made it”.
The Palace is beautiful with an art deco feel to it. It is small, seats are so comfortable and the stage can be seen from every seat.
The Temptations and The Four Tops opened the night!! Even though there have been some changes in their groups because of deaths and other circumstances, their concept and soul have been kept. And, their wardrobe still stands out, just as their dance moves have, as well.
Then, each group performed what they do best….and the party began!!
3 hours of Motown was just the perfect way to start 2015.
And when they asked if we were ready to party…..we did and The Palace was hopping.
This show was awesome!! The guy next to us asked Cindi to read something from the program and then he said “Didn’t they know what audience was attending?” Pass the readers, please!
If you are in South Florida, The Temptations and The Four Tops will be at The Kravis Center on Saturday, April 4th at 8 p.m. You can get tickets through Ticketmaster. Don’t miss it Baby Boomers!
