I've been enjoying following their adventures in NYC `They went live again earlier before taking the stage and Mackenzie gave a little peek at the sound check before that www.facebook.com/original...5480817775 www.facebook.com/original...208100982/ [Edited 1/4/19 22:42pm] | |

THe show was amazing, I went to the sound check meet and greet and they could not have been nicer and more personable. They even stuck around after the show and it seemed that they shook every hand that was offered to them. And for their sound and Mackenzie on vocals incredible and Mr Hayes killed “DARK” great to hear, he played Venus De Milo too "We went where our music was appreciated, and that was everywhere but the USA, we knew we had fans, but there is only so much of the world you can play at once" Magne F | |

I saw a clip from the show of them playing The Cross snd Mackenzie was amazing! His vocals reminded me very much of B Slade. Awesome that Morris played DARK and Venus De Milo! They all seem like great people and very humble as well. Thanks for sharing! | |

During the sound check it was funny because, they first played PEACH and it rocked, Levi tore it up with the solo's, I give him so much credit he tore it up the whole show. Then Mr Hayes jumped in and said "Mackenzie, I have been asking him to let me do a song" and "Mackenzie looked at him and looked at us in the front and said, "I didnt take much to get you to do one", then Mr Hayes went into DARK and surprise to me, I never knew this was one Mr Hayes favorite tracks ever of Prince. But then something that DID NOT happen at the show not sure if they did it the next night in Long Island, but they said we were going to surprise ya'll with this, but dont tell the audience when they come in, and Mackenzie did "ADORE" and it kicked ass. If you have a chance to go see the NPG with Mackenzie DO IT, do not hesitate, i give 100% props and love to these guys. They over and over say "We are not a tribute band" and its not, Mr Hayes at the end of the show said what Wendy did at the Revolution gigs, "Thank U for coming out, its helping us heal and we hope its helping you" and they all deserve that respect. And also no one in the NPG deserves to NOT be there, I know people like to dog Tony M over those years, but he is a cool dude, and Damon D what a class act gentleman, Levi the same, and Sonny super cool and somewhat shy. Mr Hayes is the core, and the leader, he is a super human being for so many reasons, follow on FB and you will see why, plus his light hearted humor and story telling really is genuine. And i will go out on a limb here and say that Mr. Hayes through it all is my favorite PRINCE band member ever regardless of band. And Mackenzie, this brother brings it, he too as he said "I am not replacing anyone nor am I trying, if i was trying these guys would kick me out" he has great presence and does it all justice. "We went where our music was appreciated, and that was everywhere but the USA, we knew we had fans, but there is only so much of the world you can play at once" Magne F | |

Oh thank you so much for that story. It kills me that I was too sick to go, but now it feels a little like I was there. And the MUSIC continues...forever... | |
