Imagination Movers-Red Bank New Jersey 4/12/11






              We took our little angel to her first concert to see the Imagination Movers at the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank New Jersey.
               Choo Choo Soul opened the show and performed for about 15 minutes leading the kids right into the Imagination Movers "In a Big Warehouse Tour" set. The Movers brought along Nina, Warehouse Mouse and Eddie the monster from their television show.
                The show featured songs from the Imagination Movers television show plus a few covers and snippets of classic rock songs, for the parents benefit. However, I don't think any of the parents at the performance would have complained if all the songs were from the Movers catalog.
                 The Movers also made several references to local legend Bruce Springsteen, including drummer Kyles take on the chorus of Dancing in the Dark.
                 Opening act Choo Choo Soul joined the Movers for Bounce from the most recent Movers CD, In a Big Warehouse.

                 The amazing thing about the performance, was that no matter where you were seated, at some point the performers would be near you. They all made their way into the audience on more than one occasion.
                 The setlist included:
                       Imagination Movers Theme Song
                       On Your Mark,Get Set,Go
                       ????? New Song ???????
                       Rollin'
                       Nina's Song-w/Nina
                       On My Way Home(Hawaiian Lullaby)-w/Nina
                       Buckets & Cans w/snippet of Panama(Van Halen Cover)-w/Nina
                       Cheese-w/Warehouse Mouse & Nina
                       Friendly Guy

                       Bounce w/Choo Choo SoulNina
                       Put Your Hands Up w/Choo Choo Soul, Nina, Warehouse Mouse

                  I definitely missed a couple songs, but this is the bulk of it.

                 A great, fun show and one that was more than worth the price of admission
