At precisely 9:00 PM, Tim Gazaway and SIMPLY SEGER literally hit the ground running with "Come To Papa" and off they went, in an outstanding musical display of Bob Seger's best tunes, and the sizeable audience was blown away by it all, especially those never previously experiencing this superb nine piece unit. What a show!... 2 hours and 20 minutes, non-stop, with two encores included...the audience clearly fed off the enthusiasm of these guys n' ladies, and vice versa . The gang onstage has so much great chemistry and unquestionably enjoy together what they do, and so did we all. Great overall vocals and sound balance as well. Tim's terrific showmanship was as much a part of it....he'd go all through the audience with his guitar, sometimes without it, at one point getting many in the audience members to add a vocal line or two for "Old Time Rock N' Roll'. Whatever other Seger classics you wanted to hear, you probably did.....Beautiful Loser, Still the Same, Main Street, Shakedown, Fire Lake, Hollywood Nights, Like A Rock, Night Moves, Rambling Gambling Man, Turn The Page, Katmandu, Rock N' Roll Never Forgets, and so much more. A spot-on perfect show from a group of perfect professionals, many of whom displayed some impressive solos throughout the night in an overall effort Bob Seger himself would be most proud of. Nope..not a weak link whatsoever in this remarkable band. If and whenever the club gets them back - and not soon enough for all of us - do not, repeating DO NOT miss it. Damn, that was really something last night. If they are coming to your town soon get your tickets early, and get ready for a real evening or entertainment and great Bob Seger music you will not be sorry except when the shows over and you wish there was more!

Paragould Arkansas ....... Collins Theater

Nancy Gandy My first visit also. I love the theater. And Simply Seger was amazing!! I counted at least 20 instruments played by the 9 band members. Such talent!! And that drummer, omg, he was so energized! Does he just crash afterwards? Loved the sax!! And they did all my favorite Seger songs. Vocals and stories behind the songs were so entertaining!!! They even got the audience involved. 5 stars for sure!
