“I Think I Love You!” David Cassidy at NJPAC!

Web2016July6_01

Cheers erupt as the lights dim and Cassidy makes his entrance, smiling and grinning at the crowd, soloing mightily on his guitar. Segueing into one of his classic Partridge Family hits, “C’mon Get Happy,” the impromptu “cheering section” in the front row takes its cue and happily goes to work excitedly shouting in support of their favorite former teen idol.

David Cassidy – NJPAC Newark NJ

David Cassidy - 3pm show

David hit the stage and looked and sounded great. Guitar in hand, he played for almost 2 straight hours. In a surprising twist, David took us on a musical journey of the last century. David touched on all the music that influenced him and that we all grew up together listening to. Deep Purple, Cole Porter, the Beatles, the Monkees, Jimi Hendrix, BB King, and his Partridge Family and solo career classics. The band was a tight, stellar group of musicians including Dave Robicheau on Guitar, Frank Fabio on Bass, Craig J on Keyboards and Felipe Torres on Drums.

David was charming, witty and engaging. He truly appreciates his fans and was enjoying the crowd as much as we were enjoying him…..

“I grew up listening to everything,” he says. “Eric Clapton, George and Ira Gershwin. B.B. King was one of my favorites. I’d like to do a few of his songs in my next show. I always loved the blues.”

It’s March 17, 1972. The place: New York City’s Madison Square Garden.

A crowd of 22,000 screaming teens anxiously awaits the on-stage arrival of the world’s highest paid performer — David Cassidy, age 22.

Following a warm-up performance by Tony Orlando and Dawn — who sing their latest hits, “Knock Three Times” and “Candida” — the venue erupts in utter pandemonium as Cassidy takes the stage in his Elvis-inspired white jumpsuit and starts to sing hits from his new album, Cherish, the audience screaming with delight the entire time.

Fast forward 44 years to June 10, 2016. The place: New Jersey’s Newton Theatre.

The excited crowd of mainly female baby boomers whoops and hollers as they wait for their former teen idol, David Cassidy, 66, to take the stage. To them, Cassidy is not only a singer, songwriter, guitarist, and actor, but a certified pop icon.
