Hi Dennis,i hadn't seen you or bill wyman's rhythm kings live before,but i'm glad i made the trip up from sussex.You all were superb ,great songs,great playing and singing.I will love to hear the live cd when it appears and i will make a point of trying to catch you live next time you tour.Thanks for a great show.P.S i take it there's not much chance of Chuck Berry making the line up. m.c

MALVERN
The best night out in years - expected Bill's Rythmn Kings to have a suprise guest but couldn't believe my luck when it was you, Dennis. Great to hear you sing different stuff - which you obviously enjoyed doing.
PS Thought the others in the band were good too! L.T.

Brighton Dome
Throughly enjoyed the show on Wednesday evening. Seemed like you had always been with the band and certainly not the "new boy" Keep up the good work. P.G.

Buxton
Hi Dennis.Saw you the other night at buxton with the Bill Wyman band absolutely knocked out by the show as a whole, but especially with you, when you was announced at the begining it took me a while to realize who you was, it hit me as soon as you started singing, where have you been man? i thought you was dead, but there you were, looking great, and singing better than ever.
as soon as i got home i logged on to amazon and ordered your CD "out of the dark", it arrived this morning and i have just played it, fantastic, brilliant, shit hot. "Shine son" moved me to tears, even an old fart like me, i have a son in his late 20s now, but that song really related, where can i find the chords/tab? Will keep a close eye on your web-site now, for future tours/CDs, etc. Thanks for still being alive Dennis, and for a great show. hope to see you again soon.

Cheers. Mick.

Buxton Opera House
Hi Dennis Just a quick mail to say how much we enjoyed seeing you with Bill and co. We had not been able to get tickets when we first rang up but luckily when we phoned the Wednesday before the show they had some tickets available.
The draw back was they were in one of the boxes!
We have never had a box before (we are normally in the stalls). They did say there was restricted view but it was not that bad and if you I hung out I could see everyone.
Once again thanks for a brilliant night, hope you are enjoying the tour. MF

York
Your voice is wonderful, we saw you sunday with the Rhythm Kings but you stole the show , Inow have to catch up with what I have been missing. Thank you for a great performance. S.

Malvern Forum Theatre, Friday 22 February 2008
As always, a fantastic show from DL. We went along just to see him but the whole RK experience was a great one - Dennis fitted in wonderfully and his voice lifted the whole band and melded beautifully with Beverley Skeete's. Dennis (looking slim and happy) looked as if the stage could barely contain his energy as he danced, laughed and stunned new listeners with his voice. A well-deserved standing ovation, a wonderful show. J. G.

York
Dennis - we thought you were fabulous last night. Your version of "Unchain My Heart" was so good. Do you have a recording of it ? Keep on with the rock songs. S.

cliffs pavillion, southend
Being a great fan of both the rhythm kings and of Dr.hook, it was a fantastic surprise to me to see dennis live with bill wyman...the show was fantastic and quite rightly received a standing ovation...I was honoured to be part of the audience...wow!!! K.R.

Portsmouth
Bill Wyman and the rhythm kings....and you of course Dennis,....WOW!...What a FANTASTIC performance, my ankles were killing me by the end of the night from tapping them to the music! LOVED the Everley Bros number 'crying in the rain'....tell them to keep that one in there! Fifth year running that we have seen the band and it just gets better each time.
Very best wishes to all of you. Linsey

portsmouth the guildhall
Dennis stole the show at the Guildhall,he has so much energy, where does he get it from? Bill Wyman took second place (i only bought tickets to see Dennis anyway)another great performance, come back next time on your own!!!!even my husband had to agree Dennis was the life of the show.

Truro
Saw DL with Bill Wyman & Co at the Hall for Cornwall - for me, he stole the show!! Such energy and warmth, think I'm in love :o)

I'm now the proud owner of the Live in Liverpool album (bought at the venue, barely been off my cd player since) and a DVD of the Hits & History tour. Especially love More like the Movies, Don't let the sun catch you crying... Millionaire is great fun ...and I've just persuaded my fellow guitar players that we must perform If not you at our next gig.

Love you Dennis - fantastic voice, great songs, great performance, the two ex wives must be kicking themselves.

Take care, have fun. Sally xxxx

Cambridge Corn Exchange
What a great concert! Me and my other half couldn't help but dance along in our seats. Where do you get all that energy from???? B

Swan Theatre - High Wycombe England UK
Went to see Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings in High Wycombe last night (Feb 14th ) we've seen them a couple of times before and its always a treat - a band that has fun and is on stage as much for them sleves as for the audience - was initially dispointed to find Gergie Fame was not in the line up for our concert and he has always been quite pivotal in the RK's line up

- However was absolutely surprsied and pleased to find Dennis Locorriere as a "guest artist" on this tour What a fab treat - Dennis was in exellent form and really fitted into the rather loose and fun "family" that is the Rhythm Kings persona He brought his own fantsatic sense of humour to the stage and of coure that fantastic voice - very special Frankly I'd like to have heard more from Dennis - but he is guesting in the R.K's after all - so I now have to see Dennis in one of his own shows - keep me posted next time he's in the UK please

But Rhythm Kings with Dennis Locciere come highly recommended - catch ';m in the UK in Feb and March or perhaps your going to miss out forever !!

Barry B - Hertfordshire, UK

Glasgow Herald: Online comments:

the audience clearly loved it, the band enjoyed themselves, Dennis Locorriere was a revelation and, as usual, the sax players (Frank & Nick) played a real blinder. I enjoyed it thoroughly

It was worth going to the Concert Hall if only to see Dennis Locorriere. He was bopping all evening, obviously enjoying himself, and brilliantly entertaining.

IPSWICH
Hello Dennis Saw you in Ipswich on Friday night - brilliant show - you were exceptional!!!! Shirley xxx

Barnstaple
Just wanted to say thanks for an ace night. Was sat in the front row and in complete awe. I'm 29 and have a few people on my tick list to see before they are too old and past it. Mean that in the nicest possible way though!! Have listened to Dr Hook since I was a pecker. My mum and late dad were massive fans and it was rocking to see you in the flesh and to hear your voice, which still sounds awesome. A.W.

Aberdeen Music Hall
Took my son who is learing to play guitar to see Bill Wyman and the rythm kings and we were blown away with the entire night a group of brilliant musicians with nothing to prove to anyone doing what they do brilliantly in particular when Dennis sang the song about New Orleans 47

If anyone has a chance to get a ticket for this show get one and see just how music should be played and enjoyed R.M.

Stables - Milton Keynes
Dennis , saw you at the Bill Wyman show in Milton Keynes you were really impressive ! .... . Keep touring ! Thanks K.R.

Another great night with Dennis then meeting him after the show topped off a fantastic time.Thanks Arthur.

millenium forum derry , Northern Ireland 25.10.07
Once again, what a star performance, from a magnificent singer, songwriter. You know how to entertain an audience. Not many singers could stand on a stage with a few guitars and play and sing for so long with the confidence you have. You are truly a remarkable performer with a unique voice. It must be fantastic to be so loved for so long and to keep your voice as good as it was 20 years ago.
Please keep coming back to us. I have been to see you every time you have come here and you just get better and better. Love your new stuff.

There are very few singers who leave a famous band and can sustain the interest you have without having to play all the oldies. Love all your own stuff. Beautiful songs.

Once again thanks for entertaining us and keep coming back. C. McF.

Weston-Super-Mare
Hi dennis , great show again in weston super mare as allways , i first saw you on stage in the eighties with dr hook in cardiff and since then i try and see you every time you you tour . I travelled from cardiff and had a front row seat in weston , sat there by myself and really enjoyed myself , you sang two songs that really made the hairs on the back on my neck stand on end i think they were ,.,. things i should have said and maybe when shes not there ,if the titles are right can you tell me what album they are on so i can buy them . kindet regards james

southport 02.11.07
Hi Dennis. can i just say WOW that show was really amazing. ive been a BIG fan of yours for years now and have grew up with listening to your music from when i was little. loved every minute of the show last friday. it was the first time ive ever seen you in concert because i wasn't allowed when i was younger but can i just say all them years of waiting was well worth it. your music is a big part of my life, i dont go a day without listening to your cd's or your recent dr hook tour dvd. you have an amazing voice and it goods to see that you are carrying on with your carear and making brill songs of your own. the amy winehouse song sounded great, i really think you should bring your own version out. hopefully i will see you next year 2008, wouldnt want to miss it for the world. enjoy the rest of this years tour. thanks again for a great show.

darwen library theater. sat. 03.11.2007
The show was just superp the voice/set/guitar playing just gets better each time we go to see him. We first saw dennis with dr hook and band way back in november 1973 at the stoneground in manchester just before they made it big now it's time to get him put in the music hall of fame. Who would have thought that 34 years on that he would still be doing it with the same emotion and more. THANKS DENNIS S & B J

Billingham Forum 01.11.07
Dennis,thanks for providing an unforgettable evenings entertainment at Billingham Forum on 1st November.It was quite simply a superb performance by a tremendous showman,thanks once again for sharing that awesome and unique musical talent that you have with us,hope to see you again very soon.Cheers A.W. L.L.

Southport Arts Centre 02.11.07
I attended the show at Southport with my 14 years old son and 21 years old daughter. My daughters' knowledge regarding the music of Dr Hook, or Dennis, is somewhat limited. However, she summed up the evening in just one word. AWESOME!! She was mesmerised by the sheer power and emotion that Dennis put into each and every song. Then, to meet him after the show, to get autographs AND photos taken with him, was the icing on the cake for both my children and me.In the meantime, we look forward to a new album in the near future, which if the sounds of the new tracks played on Friday are anything to go by, will be superb.Once again, thank you Dennis for a fantastic and 'awesome' evening! T.B.

SEE YOU SOON. ALAN & MARLENE

Southport 02.11.07
To quote you last night " No F***ing Band" You don't need one Dennis, another great solo night and some brilliant observations on life, you could have a second career as a comedian. All made for another superb night. Look after the voice for 2008 another tour and new CD. D.N.

Billingham 01.11.07
Feel extremely lucky to have seen this great gig. I was actually due to have been in hospital for a bone marrow transplant on the 24th but luckily for me it was put back a couple of weeks. Truly one of the best and certainly the most intimate of concerts I have ever seen. This was the final piece to my music loving jigsaw. Queen, Bad Company, Paul Rodgers, Ian Brown and now Dennis Locorriere. Fantastic!! My sister and I grew up on heavy doses of Dr Hook thanks to our parents and were delighted when Jungle to the Zoo was played. Spent many an hour dancing round as kids to this track :) Anyway words to describe the gig fail me so I will stick to fantastic. Thanks again and can't wait for your return to the area. A.M.

billingham forum 01.11.07

Waterfront Hall Belfast 29.10.07
My mum absolutely loved ur music and played it all the time so i grew up with it. I jumped at the chance when i heard you were playing in Belfast. I was a bit dubious when i saw nothing but 3 guitars on stage at the start haha but you were absolutely amazing music brilliant and to top it off you were hilarious and i got my pic taken with u yay!! Thanx for an excellent night N.D.

Waterfront Belfast 29.10.07
my husband and i took our 3 children to see dennis last night and had a fantastic night. the children are aged from 10 to 15 and have been brought up on dr hook music ,they had a really great night and loved hearing all the old songs as well as the new ones.cant wait till dennis comes back to northern ireland again as we will be first in the queue for tickets.!!!!!!

Wylotts Potters Bar 13/10/2007
My dad had bought me the solo concert & the hits & history DVD's which are FANTASTIC, I kept telling my friend how good they were, so when he saw your show advertised, he bought me tickets for my birthday which was on the same day as the show. Needless to say I had a great night, your guitar skills & your vocals are exceptional. The rapport with the audience, the little stories about the songs create a great atmosphere.
I shall be checking the tour dates for when you are back in the area.
Thanks for a great night.John

Bloomsbury London 14.10.07

Darwen Library Theatre, 12.10.07
Having been a Dr Hook fan in my youth I was surprised to see Dennis was performing in little ole Darwen. I've been to the theatre before with my granddaughter to see Scrooge and similar stuff but didn't realise it attracted such quality performers. My sister-in-law and I totally enjoyed the show, as did the whole audience. Dennis certainly connected with the audience and received a standing ovation at the end of the evening. The songs were, of course, brilliant and the anecdotal links were interesting and amusing. A totally great evening. A.

Bloomsbury London 14.10.07
I am 34 and have grown up listening to your music.When i was 18 you came to my hometown and played at our sports centre.From then on i was hooked.Earlier this year i finally got to see you live again in Norwich and had the best evening,i didnt want you to stop singing,i was determined to come and see you play solo (no mean feat when you live in the back of beyond and have 4 young'uns)and last night was that night.I gatecrashed a friends flat for the weekend and even made him come with me,Dennis you rocked i had a great time ,your guitar playing is awesome and your voice as good as ever....and my reluctant friend got a cd in the foyer and was singing 'jungle to the zoo' all the way home so yet another fan Mr Locorriere!! DONT EVER STOP SINGING BECAUSE YOU ARE ONE OF A KIND K.R.

Bloomsbury Theatre 14.10.07
Although my wife a long term fan first time Ive seen you in the flesh so to speak. Great show, thanks! liked all the material old and new and look forward to seeing you again in Ireland. Oliver

Went to see you at the bloomsbury last night and all i say is .......JUST FANTASTIC!!!!. This is the third time i have see you this year and each time has just got better and better, can't wait for the fourth!!!! V.S.

Potters Bar 13.10.07
This was my second time to see Dennis, and again, I was overwhelmed. It was a fantastic evening with a wonderful display of talent, charm and wit (not forgetting his good looks). Looking forward to the new cd and more shows, so the future looks great! Thank you .. D

Darwen 12.10.07
Superb performance at Darwen, can't wait until the Southport concert in 3 weeks time. S

Mansfield 05.10.07
Having seen a clip of the Hits and history tour I was expecting a band and mainly Hook songs with a spattering of Dennis' own stuff but it was mainly Dennis' own stuff and no band but it was one of the most inspiring performances I have ever seen and one I'll never forget and by the end I was glad he was on his own as it made it very personal. The only downside was I am trying to learn the guitar at the moment and its disheartning to know I'll never be able to captivate an audience like Dennis did and even though I'm only 36 Dennis put my energy in the shade. J.V.

Becks Theate 10.10.07
i would like to thank dennis for a fantastic perfomance at the becks theatre on wednesday night. i took a friend who has liked dennis music but never seen him live and he was totally blown away he said that he left the theatre feeling like a personal friend of dennis.This is his words summing up the show it gave him the feeling that dennis was appreciative of the people that were there and was proud to be relaying his remarkable talent to all and wanted to make sure people had a great time with his humour,stories,life observations and voice and and that the thing with dennis is that his music & words reach everybody from the young to the old as everybody can relate these to your parts of your life in one way or another which is a rare gift to hav by the way my friend is 72.I loved the new tracks they sound great cant wait for the new album. G.

Beck Theatre, Hayes 10.10.07
This was a really fantastic show played with great energy - thank you Dennis. My wife and I enjoyed it very much. Old songs nice to hear played again and your new songs especially are so good! G.

The Stables Milton Keynes 06.10.07
We went to our second Dennis concert of the year and we're not disappointed in what we saw with the mixture of old and new material...... we had a very enjoyable evening seeing a superb performer.. D.I.

Mansfield 05.10.07
Yet again you managed it Dennis! What an amazing evening - every time I see a new show I think it can't get any better than the previous shows I've seen and you always prove me wrong - brill night excellent mix of new, not so new and some darn right old songs. Dennis is such a great guy made my 10year old grandaughters night by giving her the plectrum he had been using all night - she's been merrily strumming both Hook and Dennis songs since - some kids have got great taste in music don't you think!!! J.N.

Mansfield 05.10.07
Another exceptional perfmorance. Dennis justs gets better each time I see him. His enthuiasm never wavers and his voice is stronger than ever. A perfect mix of the old songs that we love to hear and the new songs that we hope to hear again soon. It is always a prvilige to be at a DL concert he is not just a great entertainer but a true legend.
The Mansfield audiance were totally spellbound; DL is a superstar who truely shines. L

The Stables 06.10.07
Saw DL last night and had a great evenings entertainment. It was especially nice to have a concert of new (to us) songs. There were a few old favourites but the balance was spot on. A really enjoyable evening. J.

The Stables, Wavendon 06.10.07
Another excellent night at a very good venue. Its the 6th time we've seen Dennis and we never tire of him. Dennis' voice is just sublime and the interreaction with the audience puts a lot of other artists in the shade. Dennis always plays different songs in his shows and its sometimes a case of 'he didnt play...' but, personally, i like to hear different and new songs. The concert actually finished with a new song called Different Faces which hopefully will be on the next cd. So another brilliant night by one of musics greats. if you havent seen Dennis before treat yourself and try and catch him on this tour N.W.

Stables, Wavendon 06.10.07
Dennis was superb! The energy, the words of the songs,all reminding us of how good he is at communicating all those feelings via his songs. I was back in those days when I was younger & the years had not tainted my view of the world. Dennis lifted my soul with the words & took me right back to those summers of sun & freindship. Thank you Dennis, you are a star & a wonderful performer & song writer. Keep on keeping on!! B.C.

mansfield 05.10.07
Wonderful concert .Audience very responsive. Sure Dennis will have lots more fans.His voice his songs his looks just keeps getting better.Listening in the bar to what were some new attenders all fantastic feedback,sure they will be back for more.Thanks so much Dennis got my picture and yet another autograph just a lovely night enjoyed by all. x Y.H.

Mansfield 05.10.07
Wow Dennis another great show this evening. A fine mix of old and new, amusing interaction with us The Audience and another DL concert to look back at. The amount of time you spend in this country it's surprising that you haven't picked up a 'Limey' accent yet.How do you dust yourself down after the show and sign away like mad,pose for pics and keep smiling? A real credit to showbiz and a terrific way of thanking the fans who have purchased your music over the years. We will be coming to see you again and more than likely again after that.Keep on rockin'.Paul & Bea

We will surely come and see you if you come back to Copenhagen :D LH

The Lowry Manchester 22.04.07
There are great singers, there are great songwriters, there are great musicians and there are great entertainers but few are lucky to display all those attributes. In my humble opinion Dennis, you certainly do. I always liked 'Hook' but could not say I was a fan in the sense that I knew everything about the band. (I am probably one of the few that hasn't got a clue why the band split and what caused all the acrimony). All I know is I loved the songs. I saw the gig at the Lowry in Manchester and was blown away. Dennis, I thought when Hook ended that was it. I only found that you were touring by accident but boy am I pleased. You brought back some great memories and I can't wait to see you again whether it is a solo performance or with the band again who were great. For the record, my all time fave Hook song is A Couple More Years, written by both you and Shel I believe. Hey dennis, do you live in UK now? Cheers Dennis, for the songs and for the memories. -Tom

The Lowry Manchester 22 April 2007

Dennis Locorriere and the band gave a fantastic performance at The Lowry last Sunday.The audience gave a standing ovation at the end which was well deserved. We hope that Dennis will be encouraged to return really soon HG

The Lowry Manchester 22 April 2007

Absolutely fantastic show - the best live gig we've ever seen. Dennis was supported by a top class backing band but his talent and genius has to be seen to be believed. They all looked as if they were really enjoying themselves. They gave us the full range of songs from heart rending sad songs to crazy humour. What a performance!! Roll on the next tour- we'll certainly be there. RM

Thank you for a fantastic evening in Grimsby on 21:04:07.

I have been given my hearing back (cochlear implant) and to hear you sing in Grimsby on Saturday was incredible. Your voice and the music you were playing was as wonderful and as enjoyable and mind blowing as I remember it being when I listened to it 20 to 30 years ago!
Thank you for sharing your fantastic talent and history.
Please don't stop it's too good to waste. ML

Bradford 17/4/07

Had the most amazing time,it felt like we had been transported back in time. Please come back soon band, and Dennis you were brilliant. J & K

Hi, Of course I knew about Dr. Hook from my youth Im 61 so being at a loose end I and my wife decided to see Dennis Locorriere at Grimsby .What a great show he put on very nostalgic for us and what a nice man .A very good show was enhanced by his band who along with Dennis were craftsmen on whatever instruments they played .We real enjoyed the evening.

southport 18.04.07

Great night and the standing ovation after the show just showed how everyone enjoyed the performance. But, at the risk of upsetting a lot of hook fans and as one of those who didn't wait until you were nearly dead to see you for the first time. Dennis Locorriere on stage with guitars, table and singing the songs from hook and his two solo albums is what I enjoy most, and what I look forward to hearing again. DN

Hi Dennis

I've seen you many times since you've been solo and yet again you were fantastic. I brought my son and daughter with me who are 18 and 21 respectively and they love you almost as much as I do as they've grown up with Dr Hook's music. No disrespect to your solo stuff but it was good to have a night of just Dr Hook music. Kath

Lowry, Salford Quays, Manchester 22.04.07

Brilliant performance from Dennis and his Band, can't wait for the next tour, many thanks for signing my CD/DVD S

Salford - Lowry theatre 22/4/07

I took my friends Andrea and Tony and their Son Tom to the concert as a late Christmas present. And found I had given myself the best Christmas present ever, as well as them. The concert was magical, full of humour energy and emotion. (As well as wonderful sexy singing, fantastic musicians, excellent handling of Hecklers and potential groupies and lots of songs we all knew!)We all thoroughly enjoyed the whole show. ...
Thank You Andrea xxx

Dartford - Orchard Theatre 20.04.07

Just wanted to thank Dennis for the fantastic night. I have been a fan since the early days and thought Dennis put on a magnificent performance. He is so full of energy and his voice is still amazing. I sang along with every song. The songs bought back so many memories. My 2 favourites of all time are "When You're In Love With A Beautiful Woman" and "Millionaire". I never get sick of them, but I love so many of the others too. A wonderful night, and I can't wait for Dennis' next tour and look forward to the DVD of the show being released.
Thanks again Dennis. It was unforgettable. H

The Orchard, Dartford, Kent 20th April 2007

From start to finish I was mesmerized. This is the first time I have seen Dennis live and will not be the last. I was in tears at some old favourites (reliving memories) laughing at his comments and in awe of the sheer enthusiasm and energy of this wonderous man. He is really tasty looking too which is a bonus! XXX MK

Lowry (Salford) 22.04.07

Cannot believe that only for Chris Norman being warm up artist (big smoky fans)we would never of seen this absolutely fantastic show.DL you and your musicians absoluteley blew us all away will be seeing you next time round that is for sure. Thank you for a fab night. MG

Grimsby 21.04.07

Thank you for taking me back twenty or even thirty years. I loved your music then and it is as fantastic now, if not more so... FL

The Lowry Manchester. 22.04.07

Well done it was a brilliant show don't stay away too long. PS

Grimsby 21.04.07

Just a quick note to say thanks for another brilliant evening Dennis. I came along with my Mum, Dad and Husband, the last time I saw you was in Sheffield, 1985 the 'Farewell Tour' when I was just 16 and it was every bit as fantastic last night as it was back then. It was great to wait and meet you at the end of the show and just topped the evening of perfectly. Magnificent!! LS

Orchard Theatre, Dartford 20.04.07

I went along to the show, not having much knowledge of Dr Hook, apart from "Sylvias Mother" and "When you're in Love with a Beautiful Woman", and expected to be thoroughly bored. How wrong could I be! From the "warm-up" act of Chris Norman (ex-Smokie member) andhis collection of songs both old and new (including "Alice, who the **** is Alice"), through to the explosion of energy on stage that was Dennis Locorriere, I was transfixed all evening. If you get a chance to go and see the tour, go. Sell your mother, sell Sylvias mother if you have to, to get a ticket...you won't regret it. N

Grimsby 21.04.07

What a fantastic evening, really enjoyed walking down memory lane - took me back XX years to my long lost youth! Oh happy memories. Thanks Dennis for taking the time to meet everyone after the show. Where do you get all that energy from to bounce around the stage as you did? Went as a group of mixed ages and everyone of us really loved the show. JN

Dartford - The Orchard Theatre 20.04.07

Wow!
What a truly fantastic show, my Mum has always been a fan, so I went along too - I am SO glad I did, I loved every minute. I will definitely be going next time. Many thanks for a brilliant evening. Amanda Lewis

Grimsby April 21

Been awake since 5 O'clock this morning re-living last nights AMAZING show what a fantastic night!! Dennis you always amaze us with the energy and emotion you put into your performance whether you sing your old songs or your new solo ones - we love them all. My friend and I came last night with our 30+ year old daughters and they sang to everything you did ( we brought them up right) and all the way home as well! We laughed and cried to all our favourite songs - a very emotional night that we wanted to stay and do allover again!!
We can't wait for the next tour - so please, please, please come back soon. Love Kath, Jean, Kenda, Tracey amd Rachel

Auditorium Grimsby 21.04.07

What a fantastic night of Dr. Hook music. DL is an amazing performer who performs with energy and real soul. His band are a collection of world class musicians with virtuoso performances. Each of his musicians are world class in their own right. Songs were performed as fresh as if they were written yesterday. Two and a quarter hours of sheer pleasure. Please come back PT

Newcastle City Hall 25.03.07

Hi Dennis just wanted to say thankyou for a fabulous night - your songs are so real and the heartfelt way you sing the ballads brings tears to my eyes (soppy or what? ha) Seriously though A Couple More Years and Years From Now are so poingnant (and relevant) to millions of people - what a great talent you have for expressing emotions. Please tour again soon as I missed meeting you afterwards - actually, I didn't think a huge superstar would do that-you are very rare indeed! Thanks again Dennis, love from Michelle x

SOUTHPORT THEATRE 18.04.07

It was really fantastic to see and hear Dennis again after so many years. I was a big fan of Dr Hook and the Medicine Show and watched them on a couple of occasions in Manchester during the 70's.

And now in 2007, at Southport, over a two hour period, I was once again blown away by the energy and the passion of Dennis Locorriere. After all these years...he still has it! Backed by a band of really talented musicians, Dennis put on a show that far exceeded my expectations. Demonstrating his vocal capabilities, his excellent guitar playing and not forgetting his infectious humour, I and the audience were in our element. He played a wide variety of Dr Hook material, from the earliest songs, all the way through their more commercial material. The highlight of the set for me...The Ballad of Lucy Jordan. Dennis seemed to call on all his reserves to really do justice to that classic song. My (grey) hairs prickled at that one!

If there is anyone reading this who hasn't seen this show yet...you have three dates to go. Get in there, you won't be disappointed.

PS...Dennis, when's the next solo tour??? TB

southport 18.04.07

I have seen DL many times now, and he gets better every time if that is possible. Last night's show was so fantastic,on stage for over 2hours with a band of musicans that bought the years flooding back. One song i hadn't heard for many years was was "hearts like yours and mine" Fantastic,very moving indeed. The evening just flew over,(time really does fly when you are enjoying yourself).
So now,i am looking forward to his next visit. GS

Bradford 17.04.07

Had the most brilliant night for years. Felt like a teenager again although I'm sorry this was my first DL concert. Could have stayed all night. Dennis was absolutely superb and managed to bring back so many memories with his unique sound. Wish I was going again tonight. Please, please, please come back soon. JW

Portstmouth Guildhall 03.04.07

Thank you for a fantastic evening CW

Bournemouth 05.03.07

I flew down from Leeds to my daughter's in Bournemouth to see Dennis. He was terrific, we both loved every minute of it.
All the songs were excellent but the one I found so thought provoking was 'the soup stone'. Dennis seems a rally nice qenuine guy with an incredible voice. BS

stoke on trent 16th april

What a brilliant night. from the moment Dennis bopped onto the stage singing "walk right in", it set the feel for the night. hits after hit, in that fantastic husky voice of his... there was a wonderful song "Hearts like yours and mine " with the most fantastic guitar playing.it blew me away...
And what a lovely guy. he greeted us after the show.so friendly and great with everyone... makes a change from stars who hardly bother with their fans. cannot wait to see him again. thanks guys for a wonderful evening x B

The Assembly Hall Tunbridge Wells 12.04.07

liverpool philharmonic 15.04.07

Brilliant night again,didnt expect anything less really.Band superb,but seen dennis in concert many many times and just as good solo!!! cant wait till the next time!!!! GP

Embassy - Skegness 14.04.07

....boy did they play - for a whole two hours.... although I didn’t live through the 70s, the concert made me wish I had ... We were spellbound. ... as a relatively new fan, the entire set had me entranced. I can't say that for most groups of today ... It's rare to see a first class band in an intimate venue these days. It is rarer still, to have a feeling of genuine interaction with a star ... For me, a priceless memory was forged; for others, memories were re-visited. Dennis even stayed back to meet the fans and a venue full of fans went home smiling. Now that, is the way music should be.

You can read the whole review on Music and Entertainment site Seatwave:

I'll also be doing a radio feature on Grass Roots radio show next week.

Fantastic work... you did 'em proud Dennis. An amazing night out and I'll be sure to pass on the word to everyone back home in Australia. ... Katie Spain

Portsmouth Guildhall 03.04.07

hi Dennis, I really, really loved your show in Portsmouth. I've been a fan ever since your first Dr Hook show but you just seem to keep getting better, I love your two CD's as well - Out of the Dark and One of the Lucky Ones - Keep up the good work and I look forward to next years visit. With love Ruth

Liverpool Philharmonic 15.04.07

Dennis, another fabulous show from you, and a great pleasure to see you with such a fantastic band (we've seen and love you solo too...).....So, thanks again for yet another wonderful DL performance, and goodbye until next time - we can't wait. Love and best wishes, Annemarie (AMD), Hairy Dave (my hubby) and Denis (my dad) x

EMBASSY THEATRE, SKEGNESS 14.04.07

What an absolutely fantastic night of music and memories from Dennis and the Band, and not forgetting the supporting artist Chris Norman. I am a 56 year old who still has the mind of a 20 year old, but on Saturday night all my memories of my teenage years came flooding back. Thank you, thanks for taking us all back and blotting out the world today be it only for a few hours, a few good hours of mind blowing excellent music which made the hairs on the back of your neck stand up, and the experience will remain with me forever
This is a highly recommended experience and if anyone reading this hasn’t been to the show then I suggest you do, you must be a fan if you’re looking at the website. Wonderful, thank you so much. Kind regards, Sharon

liverpool 15.04.07

LOVED THE SHOW FELT TEMPORARILY 30 AGAIN. VERY TIGHT BACKING GROUP MY SISTER CAME FOR THE FIRST TIME HAVING BEEN HISTORICALLY SICK OF ME GOING ON ABOUT THE VOICE OF DR HOOK AND HAS BEEN CONVERTED. LOVED THE VERSION OF HEARTS LIKE YOURS AND MINE. CB

Croydon 04.04.07

Absolutely loved the show, felt on a high although drained at the end, during that two hours i,d felt every emotion,Dennis had made me feel really happy and then really sad with his AMAZING performance of so many brilliant songs.
Just about got myself together when, today i received my copy of Out Of The Dark! it's sooooo good, so, that's been me all day, no cooking, cleaning or any of the other 'fun' things i ought to be doing, just slobbing out and getting emotional again. Time to go, beginning to feel a bit like Lucy Jordon. L

Brimingham UK 10.04.07

Hi, I just scared myself by recalling that I came to see you & Dr Hook with my first "serious" boyfriend (I never blamed you guys when he dumped me for someone else in a most ungracious manner, I kept on enjoying the music) when you appeared at the Rainbow Theatre in London in 76 or 77, I was as amazed then as I was after Tuesday night. I came to see you and Dr Hook twice on the Farewell Tour, in Oxford and Bristol (even though it was standing room only and we were right at the back of the "Gods")....

You are amazing (I apologise for saying you looked knackered after Birmingham) I was SO stunned that you still had the energy to come out and greet us (such a long queue of folks too) after such a tour de force of a show that I meant you SHOULD be knackered! I hope you will forgive my very clumsy way with words...

As ever you gave us more than the face value of our tickets in entertainment. You bring with you a wealth of stories and your voice is unusual instrument, being able to wring the emotion from a tune and yet also suited to the very funny songs such as "Makin' It Big", but one that I could listen to for hours.

I was with my Sister-in-Law, who loved the show and who, I think, fell a little in love with Clive Gregson! My friend, who should have been with me, was nursing her dying mother, so missed an incredible night.

Thank you for another wonderful evening. Please do another tour so that I can bring my friend along to see what she missed. J

The Derngate, Northampton, UK 11.04.07

I went to see Dennis live for the 4th time on 11th April and as usual he put on an amazing show!
The band sounded great but the best part was when it was just Dennis and his guitar!
I cried when he sang "Hearts Like Yours And Mine" (My favourite!) It was just breathtaking!
Please come back soon Dennis! AM

Assembly Hall Tunbridge Wells 12.04.07

I have seen Dennis several times over the years,this was the best performance ever. He seemed to be really enjoying himself,full of energy and in great voice. The audience was lively and very appreciative,and the band was excellent.
Loved hearing the Dr Hook Hits more of this please Dennis. Jacqui Livingstone

Tunbridge Wells 12.04.07

Just fantastic - a great nights entertainment, still smiling and songs still going 'round in my head :) R

Tunbridge Wells UK 12.04.07

Wow!!!! What a night.
I last saw Dennis on his farewell tour with Dr Hook in London, and this was the most amazing experience to be able to see him again, full of life, soul and energy,I di
