A truly heart-warming afternoon of live music and laughter. \nFor those who remember the 40s\, the show is a trip down memory lane; for those who don’t\, it’s a Sentimental Journey back through time to the glorious melodies and good clean comedy that accompanied a dogged nation’s battle for survival.\nRemember a generation of loved ones in the uplifting style that most reflects their resilient spirit. \nWhy not bring a party to commemorate and celebrate with us?

SUMMARY:Jive Talkin' perform the Bee Gees
DESCRIPTION:Renowned as the original and very best Bee Gees tribute show\, and THE ONLY Bee Gees tribute show that has actually performed with the original Bee Gees! In 1997 Gary & Darren from Jive Talkin performed LIVE on HEART FM with THE BEE GEES and received great compliments from both Maurice and Barry Gibb. \nAs with the original Bee Gees\, Jive Talkin is very much a family affair\, with brothers Gary and Darren Simmons taking the roles of Barry and Maurice Gibb\, with Darren’s son Jack joining the group in 2014 and taking on the role of Robin Gibb. The guys are supported musically by a four piece band with Lead Guitar\, Violin\, Cello and Drums\, to ensure that every note in every song is just right! \nWherever the group play they receive superb plaudits; “The Soundalike quality is quite sensational” (The Stage)\, “Amazing similarity to the real Bee Gees” (Wakefield Express)\, Absolutely Brilliant (Maurice Gibb)\, WOW (Barry Gibb). \nFor a truly amazing experience and an opportunity to hear all the great Bee Gees hits; Tragedy\, Night Fever\, Massachusetts\, Stayin Alive\, jive Talkin\, etc\, in a 2 hour explosion of music and vocal harmony\, this is a night not to be missed!

Together\, they create a show bursting with energy\, emotion\, and musical excellence. \nAs John says: \n“The idea of a Mama show is to celebrate the music of Genesis by having a Genesis party. We’re huge Genesis fans\, just like our audience. It’s amazing to meet so many likeminded fans as we tour the UK year after year – they know what they like!” \nJoin Mama for a night of epic anthems\, musicianship\, and nostalgia – a spectacular live celebration of Genesis that no true fan should miss!
