While giving a great nod to the past, (this) is indeed its
own show worthy of its own audience - Chicago Review
The Blues Brother Revival is the
hippest, most authentic Blues Brothers Tribute show ever to hit the stage. Officially
sanctioned by the Belushi Estate and Dan Aykroyd, these guys arent messin
around!
After several years working from coast to coast in the award winning Las Vegas show
Legends in Concert, they were approached by film maker Paul Jay of Jay Films
about making a film based on their experiences working in the city of sin as
the Blues Brothers. The outcome was A&E;s highly praised docudrama lost in Las
Vegas.
Lost in Las vegas caught the attention of Victor P{isano and Judi Belushi
Pisano who asked Wayne and Kieron if they would come to Chicago and audition for the
Official Blues Brothers Revival, a musical interpretation of the Blues
Brothers, complete with an piece band and a gospel choir, which picks up where the
original movie leaves off.

After
auditioning dozens of Blues Brothers tribute acts from all over America, they
decided on Wayne and Kieron for the roles of Jake and Elwood. We learned that day
how hard it is to do what John and Dan did says Judi Belushi Pisano, Some looked the
part but nobody had the whole package until Kieron and Wayne arrived.
The show opened in Chicago to rave reviews in April of 2004 with a star studded opening
night including members of SNL, Second City, Queen of the Blues Koko Taylor,
Shameka Copeland, Elwood himself Mr. Dan Aykroyd and the one and only Steve the
colonel Cropper. I
wish the rest of the band could be here seeing this says Steve. It was great I
knew it would be says Judy.
With plans to open up two new shows in Myrtle Beach and Las Vegas, the blues Brothers
Revival are keeping the legend of Jake and Elwood alive with there full throttle, pedal to
the metal show.
