PHC road show exceeded my expectations. My first time to experience it. It felt like Garrison was standing in our living room just having a normal conversation. To see how the sound effects and the actors all come together was incredible. The music was spot on....'cheerful' to use Garrison's words. And the Purdue Glee Club....what a priceless experience!

We went to a live performance of Garrison Keillor's "A Prairie Home Companion" for American Public Radio. It was magical: two hours watching a live broadcast with an audience enjoying every minute of it. Great music, sketches, songs, comedy and, of course, a perfect weekly story from Lake Wobegon, funny, sad and in the end, optimistic.
We booked well in advance and got good central seats, and we saw a long queue on the night for last minute tickets, where some would be disappointed, so book early.

Priarie Home Companion was funny, entertaining, and full of great music and singing. Garrison Keillor was a great entertainer and even sang to us during intermissions; he obviously loves his work. The setting at Riverbend Music Center was great, outside yet under a roof, a pleasant warm evening, along the Ohio river. We had a great time!

This was a most enjoyable evening. Seeing PHC live after listening on the radio for many years was a dream come true. G.K. & Co. were wonderful. Guests The Time Jumpers w/ Vince Gill and Suzy Boggus were amazing.

I've wanted to see The Prairie Home Companion in person ever since a friend turned me on to the show back in the 80's. I was thrilled to discover it was going to be in Nashville, only a couple of hours away.
The show was awesome in every way.

The show was great but not the best I have ever heard by these talented group of people. The staff at the Ryman were short and out-of-patience with the crowds. Still recommend the experience, it is a special privilege to hear a show at the Ryman and a very special surprise to hear and see Vince Gill.

It was such a thrill to see Garrison and the whole Prairie Home ensemble at the Ryman. Their performance was so smooth, funny, enjoyable and relaxed. To get to see The Time Jumpers and have Vince Gill sing a couple of songs was such an added bonus. Way over the top for my kind of fun and entertainment!

Garrison Keillor is master of subtle humor and brilliant at coordinating his show, The Prairie Home Companion. I've enjoyed it for years on the radio, and I'm so happy that I finally got to see a taping in person!

This was our 4th time to View Prairie Home Companion...would have been a perfect night had these 2 little gray haired ladies leaving the parking lot with us not said, "you must be going to Garrison Keillior, you look as old as we are..."distracted me for the entire evening.
Susie Bogus was superb and Vince and the Time Jumpers were amazing as always. The Mother's Day stories poking fun at guilt trips were worth several chuckles. We had a good, old time.

I was disappointed in the Ryman Auditorium staff and response to my repeated request for more sound. There were speakers mounted near the back that were never turned on and people were having a hard time hearing. The second time I asked about it was of a young man, who in return was very rude and smarmy with me. He told me to return to my seat!
I was determined not let them ruin it and was able to enjoy the show. Time Jumpers were fantastic and reminded me of how much I enjoy bluegrass music. I plan on seeking it out much more in the future.

I loved this show from the first minute. It was such a great mix of music and comedy. Vince gill and Suzie Bogguss and all the musicians were fabulous. Having never seen a radio show done live, it was so interesting to see how it is done. It will make subsequent programs that I only hear, even more entertaining. I plan to go again this fall when he comes to Memphis.
