Larry G. Jones - The Man of 1002 Voices at the Plaza 6pm, dark
Fridays.This was a fantastic show. I didn't expect much for $6.95 but
by the time I left I was truly impressed. He does I have been to
vegas for 20 years and this was the best show I have ever seen. Even
better than Danny Gans who cost me over $100. I laughed till I cried
several times. I will definitely be back to bring my friends next time
I'm in Vegas. If you miss this show you are cheating yourself out of
alot of laughs and fun. He sang so many songs in just over an hour I
can't even remember them all. Even a opera song 'Sorrento' which was
awesome. But the bulk of the music and parodies were based on songs
from the 50s, 60s and 70s. The Bee Gees was awesome, Englebert
Humberdink, and a great parody on Tom Jones dedicated to Loraina
Bobbit. My favorites were the Cher, Sinatra, Michael Jackson and Four
of the Temptations.
Most of his voices are so close to the original, you can close your
eyes and think you are with them in concert. Great memories of the
good ol' days and great laughs. I bought all 6 of his CD's and enjo
them while I am stuck in traffic. Larry G. Jones - The Man of 1002
Voices at the Plaza 6pm, dark Fridays. FREE with 1 Beverage purchase
of 6.95+tax!

Yes, but for the price of one Danny Gans show you could see Larry G.
Jones 14 times and enjoy 14 beverages. Think of it.

You'd need more than 14 beverages to see Larry G. Jones 14 times... I
promise!

So, sarah, are you his daughter, wife or manager? If you are going to
shill for somebody, at least be honest about it. Come on here, tell us
about your client, and maybe we go see him. But this post makes me
want to stay away.

I'm his mother. You busted me. If you don't believe me go to his
website or research the web... and read what the LAS VEGAS PRESS has
to say about him.
He's not at Fitzgeralds, he's at the Plaza.

Here's a few of the great things THEY said. NOT ME.

A High energy show that routinely elicits dozens of characters in
rapid succession. As talented as many on the Las Vegas strip, Larry
G. Jones is an Impressionist who would give Danny Gans a run for his
money -Las Vegas Sun

His mannerisms and vocalizations are dead-on, it is his comical
parodies that set him apart. Unlike most impressionists Jones can
readily switch his voice from men to women and back again -
Las Vegas Senior Press


Heir to the Danny Gans throne. He was buzzing through impressions
so full of one-liners and comedic lyrics that you barely stopped
laughing at the last one before he hit you with another zinger
-Accessvegas.com


His talents are a fine rival to every other impressionist in Las
Vegas. Jones has a masterful ability to manipulate his body, his face,
and his voice. His routine gives us a fast paced and delightful romp
through musical history, and we relive the times by hearing our
favorite artists. He has the ability to do both male and female
voices, and his rendition or Cher is a highlight in the evening
-Igoshows.com


It's the delivery and comedic lyrics of the songs that make this show
a winner. I&#8217;ve gotta tell ya, this guy can sing. Larry combines
his great voice with a personality that marks this show's appeal. He
could make it just as well as a singer who does impressions rather
than an impressionist who sings
-LasVegas.com

&#8220;Jones not only delivers terrific impressions, his comedic
talent is well-timed and physically impressive. He's got the sound,
facial expressions, the moves - and the talent - to easily fill a
larger room. His parody of Johnny Cash's Ring of Fire is hilarious;
likewise Julio Iglesias and Willie Nelson. His duet between Nat King
Cole and daughter Natalie Cole is awesome. He's a rare late afternoon
delight. A must see!
-EVegas.net

He&#8217;s very good singer/impressionist with a flair for comedy. I
was impressed with his on-stage charisma and talent. He puts on a
great show. Go see it.
