SIX 2009
What can I
possibly say about these SIX guys that hasn’t already been said? I’m not sure, but I can tell you that we went
to the show the other night and they were Awesome! The show has several changes from last year
as well as some of the same songs and comedy we know and love.
For those readers
who aren’t familiar with SIX, they are six brothers who have created a show
around an amazing talent – they sing, dance, and create music, but not just any
music. All the music you hear is created
by their voices. You’ll hear drums,
trumpets, guitars, bass, - the whole band, and everything is created live
before your eyes.
You’ll hear songs
like, “It’s A Beautiful Day”, “Love Train”, “Heard It Through The Grape Vine”,
and “Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch”. During the
beginning of the show they introduce themselves and individually show off by
performing solos, Owen on Drums, Jak on bass, Barry on trumpet, and so on. This year Curtis brought us the electric
guitar, very impressive. The show also
had lots of fun in it with “special appearances” by Frankie Vallie – “Big Girls
Don’t Cry”, Wayne Newton – “Dunka Shane”, Tom Jones – “It’s Not Unusual”, and
even Elvis sang “Jail House Rock”.
The guys had a
great time singing some beach party songs by the Beach Boys, “I Get Around”,
“Surfing USA”, “Help Me Rhonda”, and “Good Vibrations”. Owen, who usually keeps the beat performing
drums, got his chance to sing a new song this year,”With Or Without You”. It was a crowd pleaser. Jak is the clown of the group, always getting
a laugh from the audience for his antics.
His rendition of “Let Me Be Your Hero” had the crowd rolling in the
aisles.
The second half is
filled with more music like “Who Wrote the Book Of Love”. Dream”, "That Will Be
The Day”, "The Lion Sleeps Tonight”, “Rockin Robin”, and “Earth Angel”. They even invented a new type of music that
you simply have to hear called Barber-Rock.
I look forward to more songs sung in that style. The six brothers are part of a family of ten
boys whose mother died of cancer. “Love
Times Ten” is a tribute song to their mother that you will enjoy listening to
as you watch a slide show of their family.
The show ends with “Amazing Grace” and – in honor of the veterans and
those still serving – “God Bless The
