   My wife and I spent several days in Branson, MO and went to 2 great shows!    
   The first    
   was 'Legends' which had impersonators of Frank Sinatra, Carrie Underwood, The   
   Blues    
   Brothers, Pat Benatar, and Elvis.   
      
   Each did a great job and each looked very similar to their respective   
   personalities.  I    
   figured this show could not be beat, and then we went to another show the   
   following day    
   on a showboat called 'The Branson Belle'.   
      
   This dinner cruise included a magician/emcee, a singing and dancing troupe,   
   and the    
   food was well worth the cost of admission.   
      
   We saw the Heygoods.  I didn't think at first it could be better than the   
   Legends, but it    
   was.  There were 5 brothers and 1 sister in the group, and each played several    
   instruments.  We heard country, rock and roll, pop and more.  The vocal   
   harmonies were    
   fantastic and the instrumental harmonies were as well.   
      
   There was one song where the female played the harp while 2 of the brothers   
   used their    
   fiddle bow strings to play different notes on the harp at the same time.   
   Awesome!  They    
   invented a guitar that had strings on the top to play bass, a normal guitar in   
   the middle    
   and harp strings on the bottom.  So, 3 people were playing the 1 guitar at the   
   same    
   time.  Never saw anything like that before.   
      
   This was our 2nd trip to Branson.  The first allowed us to see Andy Williams   
   before he    
   died.  Branson is a great destination for entertainment.
