Frank the Man. The Music.

Outstanding show! Bob Anderson really captures whatever «it» was that made Frank so great. Many members of Frank’s old orchestra are playing and of course, Frank’s bandleader Vincent Falcone is ever-​present. With the notable (to me) exceptions of «Mack the Knife» and «The Way You Look Tonight,» all of the hits are here; Anderson even points out during the show that Frank recorded 1,200 songs in his career and it’s impossible to hit everyone’s favorites. Near the end of the evening, Anderson dropped character, talked about how much Sinatra had meant to him, then ended the show performing «My Way» without any of Frank’s mannerisms. All in all, it was an incredible night. I may have never have had the chance to see Frank live, but now, I almost feel that I have. Hopefully, this show will continue on in some fashion after its Palazzo engagement ends.

Really good Vegas show, worth the wait to get tickets, was a bit uncertain but after the show started that went away and I can only say if you like frank Sinatra and you’re in Las Vegas do go.

I’m really sorry this is closing. By far the best show I’ve seen since coming to Vegas. After the first song you start to believe it’s really Frank singing. I would see it again if I could and bring others. Next month Sinatra would have been 100 years old. Too bad it’s closed by then.

You know how you may regret being born too late, or missing a chance to see Led Zeppelin live, Leonard Cohen, The Beatles???
This was my one opportunity to see Frank Sinatra live in Las Vegas! I loved this show!
If you close your eyes you hear Frank and if you open your eyes and watch Sam… You see all the moves and mannerisms of The Man.
If you love Frank and want to hear a full 32 piece orchestra in all its glory, go see this show!

Fantastic show, incredible orchestra with actual members of Frank’s original orchestra
Sound and lighting were perfect. Bob Anderson greatly resembles Frank and his voice sounds just like him. Just dreamy. All around wonderful show

This show is by far the best show I’ve seen in Vegas. It is truly amazing. If you close your eyes, you would think you were listening to Sinatra himself. Bob Anderson was beyond amazing. He sounded like Frank. He had Frank’s mannerisms. He knew all the background stories. He even looks like Frank. The Orchestra that plays with him, has a lot of people from Sinatra’s orchestra, and the music is Sinatra’s original score sheets. I will be going back to this show again. It is truly an unbelievable show. It is the best tribute show I’ve ever seen.

This show was amazing! The orchestra is spot on and fills the room with big band sounds and memories.
Bob Anderson transforms himself into Frank and is mesmerizing!
My wife and a always loved Franks songs and this show brings then all to life.
The show is fun! Go see it!!!

Excellent show. Bob Anderson was spot on and sung for 90 minutes! I felt spoiled. The 32 piece orchestra was phenomenal with some of Frank Sinatra’s original crew! Wouldn’t mind going again next time! Heartfelt tribute to a Legend who would’ve turned 100 years old this year.

Please do not miss this show. Bob is the real thing and transform you back to a special place the that is gone from Las Vegas

What a fantastic show! Bob Anderson is amazing. I was smiling the entire time, and getting teary eyed at certain song moments. It was truly an experience I will remember for the rest of my life. I felt transported back in time and the orchestra behind him is incredible as well. This is a performance made with a ton of love. Don’t miss it!!!

What a fabulous tribute to Frank. Bob Anderson does an amazing job Performing and sounding like Frank– from what I have seen and heard from the legend. The theater used to be the old Sands theater in which Frank used to perform in. He is accompanied by an incredible 32– piece orchestra. Coolest part is that some musicians are from
Sinatra’s original band! Including the piano player and musical director. They use the same old charts as the original song too. It is very authentic and nostalgic and not be missed if your a Frank Sinatra lover. Excellent!

I was in college when Frank Sinatra passed away, but have always appreciated his music and style.
A few years back we went to a Rat Pack «tribute» show at the Riviera and we’re extremely disappointed. I’ve been dubious of tribute acts since. I decided that if the Venetian was going to host the show it must be better, so decided to take a chance. I’m so glad we did!
The make up process alone was extremely convincing. I don’t think the promotional photos do it enough justice. He sounds, looks, and acts just like Frank Sinatra.
The music was outstanding, and he was accompanied by a full 32 piece orchestra. During the concert I mentioned to my wide that I was surprised at the advanced age of most of the orchestra. Turns out these same ladies and gentlemen REALLY did play with Frank, making it that much more real.
This was so convincing there were moments where I really believed I was watching Frank back in his hay day. You can see the man portraying him has a genuine respect for Frank Sinatra and isn’t doing an impersonation so much as channelling the man himself. What a great show!

I didn’t know I was such a Sinatra fan! You do notice the age of the band — they played with Sinatra. As did the piano player. The drummer played with Steve & Edie Gorme. Out of the 30 piece band, half must be over 70 and they sounded FANTASTIC. Bob Anderson as Frank was entertaining. Save the money you would throw away on gambling and buy you a ticket to this show.

Amazing and worth every penny! Huge fan of the music and the live band was the perfect way to go.

The show was great. From the beautiful Palazzo Theatre, the great orchestra led by Vince Falcone and the incredibly talented Bob Anderson.
Having seen Bob Anderson in concert many years ago, I knew he was a great singer and singing impressionist. I also saw Frank Sinatra in concert in the 80s and early 90s.
This was the best tribute I could imagine for
Frank Sinatra’s centennial year.
It is known that Frank Sinatra’s voice is one of the hardest for an impressionist to capture. Unlike Dean Martin, Sammy Davis and Tony Bennett, it is the most challenging.
However, Bob Anderson gets as close as anyone I have ever seen. During several of the songs he actually becomes Sinatra. Bob Anderson and the Vince Falcone 32 piece orchestra was definitely an experience I have not had since the last time I saw Frank Sinatra in the crystal room at the old Desert Inn in 1993.
The ending of the show is very touching and
It leaves you wanting to come back for more.

Frank the Man. The Music is a very good show at the Venetian’s Palazzo Theatre. If you are a fan of Frank Sinatra music, you will really enjoy the show. Bob Anderson does an excellent job of not merely impersonating Sinatra but seems to become Sinatra during the show.
Somer of the Sinatra hits he sings are «Come Fly With Me,» «I’ve Got You Under My Skin,» «My Way,» «Strangers in the Night» and «That’s Life.» That’s only a brief list. The show is 90 minutes in length with some recounting of stories from Sinatra’s life with Anderson speaking as if he were Sinatra.
To help Anderson make this transformation to Sinatra, he used Kazuhiro Tsuji, a famous Hollywood makeup artist known for his work in the «Benjamin Button» movie and the ape faces in «Rise of the Planet of the Apes.»
Anderson’s voice is very much Sinatra so you can just pretend that you are listening to Frank himself on the stage. Anderson is aided my Vincent Falcone and his orchestra. The musical backing to the signing is excellent.
If you want to tip one of the ushers, I saw people being seated in the front tables where there’s cocktail service.
This is a very good show.

Set inside the Palazzo Theater — Frank the Man. The Music. pays homage to Sinatra & the big band era. Bob Anderson, a ‘world renowned’ impressionist, performs as Frank Sinatra and is backed by an outstanding 32 piece orchestra. The show was around 90 minutes long, most of the hits were covered and the crowd was joyful and enthusiastic.
A heavy brass section signaled the band was ready n’ bumpin’ followed by the soothing sounds of violinists strategically placed across stage. Add a harp, a few jazz flutists, a drummer and a guitarist. Seriously, they alone could steal the show! The unison within this group is on without error — pleasant on the ears with whimsical sounds that touch the soul. Heart warming, upbeat and light hints of electricity in the air; this is definitely one of the best live acts I’ve seen. So. I thoroughly enjoyed the guitar section — ‘Frank’ took a step back into the shadows where he sipped his Jack Daniels, the backdrop turned into a soothing-​on-​the-​eyes burgundy and the spotlight shined upon the guitarist as he played Django Reinhardt influenced grooves. He jammed for a few minutes and the scales /​riffs eventually turned into a tune in the chord of E. It led to one of my favorite classic tunes, «The Girl From Ipanema.»
«My Way», «Luck Be A Lady» & «New York, New York» were classics that had the crowd up and dancin’. It became second nature to tap your feet and snap your fingers. If you weren’t groovin’, it was likely you were just too drunk. Bob Anderson’s voice was practically a dead ringer. I’m not a big Sinatra guy, but I truly appreciated the act and who he was as an all around entertainer, thanks to Bob. He played the role extremely well, telling us vivid stories about the good ol’ times in that very theater. It wasn’t the Palazzo back then, rather, The Sands. Apparently it was the hot spot for all the big names like Frank, Bobby Darrin, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr. and so on. It was an interesting journey into those moments in time I had not been around for.
Frank the Man. The Music is a terrific act that takes you away from what the Vegas show standard is today. If you want to have an intimate evening with some good drinks, a great host (Bob Anderson) and an amazing Big Band, I highly recommend checking this one out!
*In celebration of his 99^th birthday, I was able to go to the Venetian website and enter the code — BDAY — big discount for really good seats. Well worth it.

My friends invited us to see the show. I’ll be honest, though I like a few of Frank Sinatra’s songs, I’ve never been all that into his older style music. That being said, I must say I was very presently surprised. Bob Anderson did an incredible job. Many times I found myself tapping and humming along with the music and truly forgetting this was an act and not the real blue Eyes! He even chatted with the audience and told stories. There was no bling or flashy show stunts. It was pure talent with song. He looked, acted and sounded just like good ol’ Franky!
If you looking for an incredible trip back in time, this is one you want to see.

The show is over the top. If you love the music, if you love Big Bands, don’t miss this spectacular. Bob Anderson does an excellent rendition of Frank Sinatra. The voice, body movement, and facial expressions are all Frank. This experience was the next best thing to seeing the Chairman of the Board in person. All of the songs were right on and the finale «My Way» was out of the park.
The Vince Falcone orchestra is the best. Big and loud with a horn section that puts you in the back of your seat.
Our fourth row center seats were the best, right at stage level. I would choose these seats over the two rows of table seating in front of the stage as the tables are slightly below stage level.
Frank The Man, The Music along with Steve Wynn’s ShowStoppers is bringing back Old Las Vegas entertainment. Hooray
Here is a tip. Arrive early and visit the Label Lounge which is at the entrance to the Palazzo theater. The lounge has live entertainment that will put you in the mood for the main event. This night was Frank Salerno, singer and piano player. He did many of the old standards. Frank will entertain and engage you as he works the room by visiting the tables.
A great pre-​show at no charge.
Enjoy

This is an excellent small show that lasted a full 90 minutes. Bob Anderson bears more than a passing physical resemblance to Frank Sinatra, and the sound and intonation of his voice very closely matches that of the now deceased Chairman of the Board. But the memory of the top American crooner’s iconic songs lingers on in this show. Backed by orchestra director and pianist Vincent Falcone, the former music director for Frank Sinatra himself, and a 32-​piece live orchestra, the famous melodies like «New York, New York,» «My Way,» «My Kind of Town,» and «It Was a Very Good Year» are faithfully reproduced. In fact, hearing this large ensemble of musicians belt out the music is almost worth the price of the ticket alone. But hearing tribute artist Anderson faithfully reenact the sounds and mannerisms of Sinatra is probably the closest thing to witnessing a live Sinatra Las Vegas casino concert performance itself when the balladeer was in his prime. And, this occurs in The Palazzo Theatre, which has great sight lines and fine acoustics, and for nostalgic measure rests on the very same ground as the now imploded Sands Hotel and Casino once stood where Frank Sinatra held sway five decades ago. Seating was very comfortable, and as a well-​appreciated bonus, upon arrival at the theatre our balcony seats were upgraded to the third row of the center orchestra without any request at all for any change. This put Bob Anderson directly in front of us during most of the performance. We were only separated by a few VIP tables and two rows of seats.
Even though I was too young and but an impoverished student unable to afford the price of a ticket and tip to a maitre d’ for a good seat at the time, I have always lamented not seeing a Frank Sinatra or Rat Pack performance in person when Frank, Dean, and Sammy dominated the Las Vegas nightlife scene. But, while viewing Frank the Man. The Music., I felt that, at least for a little while, I was able to experience what some of those magical musical moments must have been like.
4−½ stars overall!
