The energy and talent in this concert was incredible. The rocky treatment of our Xmas favourites hit the spot and 10 points to Shane for including Snoopy's Xmas. Give us more Class of '58 concerts. Shane's movements on stage are the best we have seen and Chet is certainly the master of the guitar. My music mad grandchildren loved it.
We didn't think that the addition of the 'comedian' added to the enjoyment and was a little out of context. We were all waiting for the 'real stuff' to begin!!!!

The whole show and the musicions were awsome. Have attended the 5 Class of 58 shows in various places and found the Bruce Mason Centre was the nicest venue yet.
For me also - it was even more special as your Trombonist Oliver Emmitt, is my second cousin and it is always neat to see him play as well.

Don't get me wrong. I think Shane and his band are tops. Have been to at least three of his other concerts and his renditions of the rock & roll classics are really good.
Last night's format with Jarred Christmas opening up started well enough but one could see he was struggling for material and one or two of the audience members he "selected" for his banter were none too happy with some of his comments. I think he is a typical N.Z. stand-up comic who relies heavily on adult humour and he struggled to keep it clean. Even some of his mildly risque jokes didn't go down too well either.
It went on far too long, 35 minutes. After he left the stage we were advised there was to be a short interval before the main attraction. This turned out to be 20 minutes no less!
Had we (the audience) known, we could have done any number of things; gone for a drink, a smoke, ice cream, even the toilet. Instead, most remained in their seats in case they missed the opening of Shane's set. It got to the stage where a good section of the audience started up a slow handclap. The band didn't arrive on stage until 8:50pm.
There were too many so called Rock style Xmas numbers. I knew maybe two. On the upside, his two guests, Midge Marsden and the black singer ( whose name escapes me) were excellent. Midge is always great. In future, we need to shed the comedian. If a warm-up act is needed then give the spot to an upcoming singer or other such act. I didn't go to listen to a comedian. I am a music fan. I'm afraid if further shows are advertised in this format, then I or my wife, sister and friend won't be going.
