Little River Band concert May 2017



The Little River Band hasn’t lost the talent for keeping the crowd happy over the past 42 years. They are successful in Australia, where they formed in 1975, and the United States. Reminiscing (an early hit for the group) demonstrates the talent and passion for delivering a memorable experience.

Their performance in Sparks, Nevada on May 27th and 28th, 2017 was a special treat for rock fans to enjoy seeing the men in concert.

Songs like Take it Easy on Me and Cool Change did not disappoint. It’s a wonderful treat to be treated special for being a fan. Check out the Little River Band Fan Club on FB. It’s a relatively new place to visit. Members of LRB take pictures of the audience and post them to FB to review the following day (or later). You can see the rocking good time we had on Sunday night at the Nugget in Sparks.

The audience was encouraged to sing along as Lonesome Loser was  belted out for our listening pleasure. Even if you don’t know (or remember) the words, you’ll have them down pat in no time. 


Upcoming concerts for 2017 include the Rialto Theatre in Tucson, Arizona on July 25, Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, NY August 3, and Rams Head On Stage August 7 in Annapolis, MD. Borrowing a line from Lady, “make time to be there.” I'm glad I did.

    1. It was a special treat that each member of the band got to show off individual talent with a solo. Drums, keyboard, guitars, and vocals were exceptional, demonstrating the great harmonies you mentioned.

  6. I have the Little River Band's greatest hits album around here somewhere. I like Lonesome Loser and Night Owls. Those are my favorite Little River Band songs. I love that 70s AM sound.

  8. I remember that song, "Cool Change." I loved the lyrics and the melody. Oh my goodness, now I have the last song syndrome! I am "hearing" the song in my brain right now!
