ALWAYS FANTASTIC SHOW
The guys are always entertaining not only being funny talking to the crowd but it was the first time they were in the crowd having people sing with them high five-ing and just always making sure we know as fans without us they are not here. Did some new songs and changed up I'm Yours which was perfect!!! The outdoor venue at the Fairgrounds is awesome and the smell of some of the fair food was around the outside that was heaven!

Awesome show... but why the wait?
Straight No Chaser put on an awesome show ... so much talent and personality! Jon McLaughlin was a great opener too, but his set was rather short ... followed by an inexplicably long break. That’s the only reason for taking off a star ... Jon McLaughlin started right on time and only performed for 30 minutes, and then we waited for 45 minutes before Straight No Chaser came on. Considering that they only had to move a keyboard off the stage, it seemed strange... would have loved more music from either performer instead!

Good singing; Too long of wait
Enjoyed the show, the night was warm and beautiful. Biggest complaint was the 50 minute wait between Jon M and Straight No Chaser. If we were told it was going to be that long, that might have helped but there seemed to be no reason for the delay. There are no instruments to set up! Also, didn't care for being blinded by the lights. Otherwise, fun night.

long wait
The opening entertainer was fine...nothing to rave about. His songs all sounded the same. What you would expect from an opener. Straight No Chaser was entertaining but the wait in between the acts was way too long. The openers started at 7:30ish and was done before 8 and straight no chaser did not go on until 8:40. Way too long! Not sure if they were waiting for darkness so that the lights and video screen would have been better (which is was) but next time start the show 30 minutes later. Allow everyone to arrive by 8 instead of 7:30. That was a good 30 minutes too long for anyone to wait.

Damn they can sing and entertain us!
was a good show. They are great performers. Not only the group can sing, but they are super funny and entertaining too. I’ve been listening to their music since 2007.

ALL NEW MATERIAL
Outstanding show. Nearly every song performed was a "first timer"; no leftovers from last year's show. Obviously, 12 Days of Christmas, was one of the encores, but the emphasis her was on NEW material

MY CHRISTMAS PRESENT TO MYSELF
OMG There are nearly no words to describe accurately the GREATNESS of this performance. There was something for everyone.

They toured extensively during their early years together, playing at venues like the Old National Centre, and took periodic breaks from their demanding touring schedule to perform in residence at the Harrah's Resort and Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Straight No Chaser live shows aren't what you'd expect from an all-male a capella group. Their shows are filled with comedy, cheeky choreography, cool lighting and a capella versions of today's Billboard hits, regardless of genre. All Straight No Chaser's albums have charted on the Billboard charts, with 2013's Under The Influence being their highest charting album today at No. 28. Straight No Chaser won the CARA award for Best Holiday Album for their 2008 release Holiday Spirits and was nominated for Best Holiday Song "Carol Of The Bells" from the same album.
Straight No Chaser Background
Straight No Chaser started off as an a capella group at Indiana University. In 2007, a 1998 video of the group singing "The 12 Days of Christmas" of Christmas went viral on YouTube and led to Craig Kallman, CEO of Atlantic Records, offering them a five-album record deal. The original line-up consisted of Dan Ponce, Randy Stine, Charlie Mechling, Steve Morgan, Jerome Collins, Dave Roberts, Walter Chase, Mike Itkoff and Patrick Hachey. Their name was inspired by Thelonious Monk's 1967 album Straight, No Chaser. Current members of Straight No Chaser include Randy Stine, Michael Luginbill, David Roberts, Charlie Mechling, Jerome Collins, Walter Chase, Sargon Isho, Tyler Trepp and Steve Morgan. The band's success has led to appearances on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, a PBS Christmas Special and a residency at Harrah's Casino in Atlantic City.
