* The Zombies.

Every so often, “something” comes along that is really too good to pass-up…

With that in mind- on Tuesday Night- April 8, 2014, The Zombies will be appearing in concert at the Mardi Gras Casino in Hallandale Beach.

Jeff Eats is thinking that most of you guys know who The Zombies are…for what it’s worth- Jeff Eats considers The Zombies to be one of the greatest 1960’s British Invasion Bands…

Trust me on this one–The Zombies “today” are as good as they were way back in the 60’s. I saw the group a year or so ago, and lead singer Colin Blunstone sounds exactly as he did on the group’s hit records “She’s Not There”-“Tell Her No”-“Time Of The Season”. What many folks don’t know, is that Zombies’ co-founder Rod Argent- after leaving The Zombies in 1969- fronted the group Argent-which had the 1972 mega hit “Hold Your Head Up.” Not to bore you with Rock ‘N Roll history–but Blunstone and Argent formally reunited as The Zombies in 2004 and since then have been in huge demand playing concerts all over the world.

Jeff Eats has previously done two “stories” on this upcoming concert…As a matter of fact, I reprinted the February 27, 2014 “one” below.

Let me wrap this one up for you–

If you want to see one of the greatest 60’s British Invasion bands–then you gotta see The Zombies.

Really just that simple!

* The Zombies.

Just this second, received a PR e-mail from the Mardi Gras Casino in Hallandale Beach.

You can “play” food blogger (just like Jeff Eats does) and read the particulars on THE ZOMBIES’ scheduled April 8, 2014 Mardi Gras Casino concert.

Trust Jeff Eats on this one, The Zombies back in 1964 were an amazing band-and 50 years later-still are.

The Mardi Gras Casino is a great outdoor venue…and every seat is good.

When you see/hear original members Colin Blunstone and Rod Argent–you’ll wonder why you aged-and these guys didn’t. I think its got something to do with –”The Picture of Dorian Gary.”- but that’s just a guess!

  1. Jeff, Really looking forward to this show. Going to do an early dinner at Matteo’s in Hallandale and then go to the show at the casino. After that we’ll throw a few bucks in the slots and call it a great night.

  2. TURNER says...

    Last night heard one of their huge hits in a Chanel tv commercial.

  3. Lou Adler says...

    Caught The Zoombies as part of The Happy Together Tour a few years ago. They were the best act in the lineup and sounded just like they did in the 60s. Going to be there this coming Tuesday.

  4. I saw The Zombies in NYC last year. They were GREAT!
    Don’t miss them.

  5. Ron W says...

    The Zombies put on a terrific show. My wife and I saw them at the HRC a few years ago and they brought the house down.
