Just got back from Billy Idol at Fallsview Casino on the newer stage.
All I can say is wow! Such a great venue and acoustics/sound system is top notch.
Billy was absolutely fantastic! Still has a great voice and tons of energy. Not running around but very active. Still hits the higher notes, voice is still great. Steve Stevens his guitarist..I guess I never really paid him much attention to him in the day, but holy shnickes the dude can freaking play! Amazing guitar work and was impeccable.
The opening act of Kelsey Karter was limited to her signing and her bassist playing lead guitar, and that is all they had. Remainder of band couldn’t get over the border. All I can say is she has an amazing voice! Did Joplins Mercedes Benz and absolutely slayed it. Then did Hearts “Alone” with Steven’s on guitar which was simply amazing.
Fantastic show. If y’all get a chance to see him, do so. At the very least, check his shows out on YouTube. I hope Karters “Alone” with Steven’s ends up on YouTube also.
Only drawback is they allowed standing in front of the stage a few people deep which caused the ripple effect of everyone standing in their seats. Kinda hate that.
