Amazing what and how they do. Guessing the show and all that is an added thing with them. How they sound, the instruments, the arrangements everything trying to stay true to the particular show they are playing....

If I remember correctly, they have a pretty extensive collection of past playlists on their Website.

They are light years beyond any "cover band" I've ever heard. They have really channeled the whole vibe.

And use the same lineup (No Donna, or Donna, one drummer or two), set list and they way they played then. They even have some of the original instruments.

I saw em once a couple of yrs ago and they did NOT play a specific show or any of that. Was way weird.
