She’s sings as good as she did 20 years ago

Great performance by Tiffany!
Atlanta, GA@City Winery Atlanta
Great show, lots of energy and Tiffany sounded amazing. The venue us pretty rough. 6 opening acts is a lot to stand through and there is no place to sit. The crowd got very chaotic for a Tiffany show. Lots of pushing and shoving.

Cane to see Tiffany. Show was advised as either solely here or her as major headliner; depending on where you looked. She did not perform nearly long again. When only see her again if I know she’s actually doing a FULL SET and nothing less.

Tiffany: 5/2/23 “Well she was just seventeen …RECALCULATING… actually she was sixteen and I twenty-one when the California native released her first album back in 1987. Some 35 years later I picked my front row seat with the tap of a mouse for only $24 during a venue sponsored FLASH sale to see Tiffany LIVE in concert. With a deal in pocket this concert lover could not pass up I set out to re-listen to the eponymous quadruple platinum release as well as her 2022 ‘Shadows’. ‘The Shadows Tour’ billed ‘A UV Pop Art Show’ promised to deliver a much more refined or mature (if you will) offering after ‘all this time’! With 11 studio albums (’87-’22) and 12 charted singles the singer/songwriter who started out country has recorded in most every contemporary genre: Pop, Freestyle, Rock, Dance, New Jack Swing, Country, and Electronica. The latest release is ‘rock’, —all rock— with a ballad or two mixed in for good measure. Butted right up against the stage front row I could see everything in detail from R to L: Lead guitar, drum kit with TIFFANY LOGO on the drumhead, bass and rhythm guitar. A ‘Tiffany’ black backdrop written in cut and paste letters was in the background, there were no video screens.The band used Blackstar and Orange amplifiers. At 8:15 Tiffany Renee Darwish 51 came out heavy-hitting with the ninth cut off her recent release ‘Keep On Swinging’. It didn’t stop there, turned out that half of the evening’s material —seven of fourteen songs were taken from that album. I’m glad I familiarized myself with it in advance. Dressed in a black leather jacket, black top, silver chained skirt, torn fishnet stockings with studded boots, the red haired rocker is not your grandmother’s Tiffany! It was likely not the same Tiffany that an audience of ‘all grown up now’ mall fans were accustomed to either. The band was something I took notice of immediately, noting to myself they did not seem like your ‘average joes’. It turns out that two of them are also present members of L.A Guns! After moving through the first three songs she addressed the audience stating that she could hear us but could only see the first couple rows. That was understandable as the entire vibe was that of a dimly lit and heavy on the spotlight club show. It may have turned in both the artist and the audience’s advantages as there were a number of open seat vacancies including a near entire empty balcony. ‘I’m gonna make you work, you didn’t know you were coming to work right? You gotta sing, you gotta dance, have some fun, party out with us. You guys up for it? Come on South Cackalacky!’ The band introductions came just prior to one of the albums ballads, ‘You’re My Everything’. The four person band was composed of Oliver & Mark Alberici on guitars (Mark being a former sound engineer for ‘Big Country’ —remember them?), Johnny Martin on bass (L.A. Guns), and Scot Coogan (also of L.A. Guns) on drums. All were mic’ed up and provided great harmonies, particularly Scot as he drummed and sang simultaneously. The trip down memory lane was reserved for the second half of the performance as she called out ‘Where’s my singers?’ for 1988’s number ten ‘All This Time’. She walked over to the lower opera boxes which connect directly to the stage to sing to the lucky fans on the right side. With a pause she noticed a strong voice coming from a gentleman in the second row of the orchestra section almost immediately behind me. Walking immediately in front of me and extending the microphone to the gentleman they finished the balance of the song together in absolute perfect harmony. Identifying himself only as ‘Big Mike’ he reminisced, ‘You were sixteen, I was fourteen.’ On Tiffany’s return to the stage she reflected emphatically ‘That was a magical moment for me!’ Next with a ‘I know you know this one, sing along and have some fun’ came 1987’s ‘I Saw Him Standing There’. The band was having themselves a blast performing the Lennon-McCartney classic. On 1987’s #1, perhaps the best song of the evening vocally she noted, ‘The label didn’t want me to record this when I was fourteen cause it was too adult… it’s my favorite song I ever recorded’ —Could’ve Been. With a call for everyone to get on their feet, sing, dance and clap the evening ended with her first number one ‘I Think We're Alone Now’. The children, now adults finally behaved. Tiffany summarized the evening, ‘I love local theater, I love community, so this place is enchanting and I want to come back, thank you again for having me here tonight.’ As she left the stage I got a fist bump from guitarist Mark Alberici as the band stayed on to shake hands and jam! Kudos to tour manager Garret Lauer who auctioned off three guitars along with a hand painted jacket by Tiffany on stage immediately after the show all to raise money for Children’s Miracle Network. Of the five concerts and seven artists I’ve seen this week I think I enjoyed this one most primarily due to my seat and secondarily to the element of surprise!” Review and photo by DAve (Concert #777)

Phenomenal! Tiffany did not disappoint at all. Her new music was amazing and she of course sang her classic hits. If you get the chance to see her in concert DO NOT miss it!

Tiffany sounded great. Sound was awesome. Only problem, the Vogel has no parking.

I am almost at a loss for words writing this because of how great this show was. The venue is amazing, intimate, eclectic and fun. Tiffany is one of the nicest people I have ever met, such a doll. And wow what powerhouse vocals. this was more of an acoustic set. This was an incredibly unique and interesting event, I'm planning to see Tiffany perform again in 2023!

The Annapolis venue was intimate. The 80's music selection before the show was perfect. Tiffany is a real person. So down to earth. She held a Q&A session in the beginning. It was refreshing to her lovely vocals and see someone who truly enjoys their craft. She has a great sense of humor and shared her life with us. She engaged the audience the entire time. She shared her loves and her passions and projects with us. I was in heaven when she covered a song by "The Cure". What a coincidence. I had their t-shirt on! I am so honored to have attended this event. She is such a positive vibe! Wishing much continued success and love.

Really great show! Tiffany was so personable and real during her performance. She made us feel like we were all her friends and she invited us all over to sing a few songs for us. Was a very fun and memorable night! :)
