I went to their show last night in St. Paul and I was a bit disappointed by the overall show. We have seen their show in Chicago twice and loved it and when they went on their first tour about 3 years ago, we really enjoyed that show, but this one was just didn't live up to those other shows.

Vocally I thought the singers were both weak. There were many times during the show where there were lull's in the show such as 15 minutes into the show when the music stopped and they played out one of their scenarios which lasted about 10 minutes. Something like that plays well in a small theater, but in a big arena, in my opinion, it just doesn't work well.

The humor was all there and visually its still a great display, but I think they have to tighten the whole show.
