After reading the negative reviews, I had to write our experience at the Wayne Newton Show. - granted this review is based on one of his performances at the StarDust a couple of years ago.
We - a group of 20/30 yr old women - had such a great time. He is a legend in Vegas. We thought his voice sounded great and strong. He was so charismatic and spoke and kissed practically every female in the audience. The entire experience from the Stardust itself to his show felt like what Old Vegas might of been like back in the day. Just enjoy it for what its worth!

We went to a Wayne Newton show at Firelake Casino in Shawnee, OK on Feb. 2, 2007. I wish I had read these reviews before I went. We had seen Wayne a couple of times in Las Vegas, and while I'm not his greatest fan, he had a very good and entertaining show when we saw him there. But here, and from the first opening note, I knew something was wrong. He failed to get through an entire song. While he was entertaining, I was disappointed in the quality of his voice and could not enjoy him because I kept wondering what was wrong. I had just hoped maybe he was having temporary problems but I think after reading these reviews, he needs to go home and enjoy his retirement. I would have felt much better if he has just said, I'm having a few voice problems but it's almost like he thought he sounded good. If he comes near you, get a CD, stay home, and go with your memeories.

Unless you are a diehard fan, don't waste your money. As the earlier revews have said, Wayne's voice is gone. I thought surely he would apologize to the audience for being under the weather, but that never came. After reading these reviews, I realize this the norm. It sounds like he's hoarse. As for the "holdiay" part of the experience, there were a number of holiday favorites but the set decorations were unbelievably bad. If you could buy it at your neighborhood drug store, it was there; fake polyester show, bad red bows that no one considered fluffly, and small lit decorations that are available at Walmart. This is not what I paid $86 for. It was also amazing that Wayne and the pianist went off on a riff on the "War against Christmas" and how bad it was to say "Happy Holidays". Wayne should check his own publicity; it's the Wayne Newton HOLIDAY show! Don't go.

We saw Wayne at the Flamingo, got the tickets from the cheap ticket place in Fairmont Street, had a seat upstairs but were given a better seat when we arrived.

The venue needs a good refit, but Wayne and his band were very entertaining, it was a good vegas night out, the only other way we could have got to hear those tunes would have been to go to see legends.

Stop knocking Wayne, we knew very little about him, we saw him on National Lampoons Vegas Vacation and the Bond film that he was in.

He reminded me of an American version of Jim Davidsion, don't take it so seriously, it's fun, fun, fun, we had a great laugh.

And what a great band..they should have a show of their own !

Well Wayne came to Auatralia at last i thought, so paid for my Mum and sister to go with my wife and I. It was a shocker i couldn't belive he would perform like that with such a rap. Thank goodness for his back up singers and his instrument playing, or i would have walked out. This was in Perth. I had wanted to se him for so long and was gutted to see him perform like that. I thought it might just be that night with sore vocal chords, but have since read & spoke to many people saying the samething. Wayne i,m sorry but time to call it a day.
