5 out of 5 stars a must see in person.......2005-12-27

Blue Rodeo live will leave you wanting more, yet, they leave you having given their all. An amazing group, richly talented, this Canadian group played The Ramshead Tavern in Annapolis, Maryland in November, 2006 and I was fortunate to be there. They would be worth a trek to Canada to see if they never played nearby again...and I think I just might plan a trip North...they're a super group! Vocally, they have no peers, lyrically, they make sense when so many writers are just scribbling and as musicians, they bring a sound uniquely their own...you can say rockabilly, or country, or rock, or blues, or jazz or psychedellic...they roll it all together. FIND A WAY TO CATCH THIS GROUP LIVE! If you can't do that, buy all their material...you won't be sorry.

5 out of 5 stars Blue Rodeo Lover From Virginia.......2001-11-12

The first time I heard Blue Rodeo was on a Juno Set that a Canadian friend gave me for Christmas a couple of years ago. The track was "Try"... it sent chills up my back then and the version on this CD does as well.

Last year while visiting my friends in Kitchener, Ontario I picked up a couple more Blue Rodeo CDs and then more on Amazon. I think 5 days in July is probably the best of all of them, but Just Like a Vacation is excellent as well.

This group never disappoints. Every CD is filled with great tracks. I hope to someday get to see them in concert, until then this live CD set may be the closest I get.

5 out of 5 stars The Best Group around.......2000-03-29

I have been a Blue Rodeo fan since 1990 when their ablum Casino came out. I at first didn't like them, but it was the song Trust Yourself that really did it for me. Just Like A Vacation is my favourite Blue Rodeo cd, because not only is it a live cd, but it's also kind of a greatest hits cd. I have seen these guys 5 times in concert, and they really know how to put on a show.

5 out of 5 stars Great to be a part of it!.......2000-03-23

I'm very honoured to have played a small part of in theproduction of this outstandng "live" CD from one of Canada'sbest bands! My company was very fortunate to have Blue Rodeo play two SOLD OUT shows for us in Stratford, Ontario at the world-renowned Stratford Festival in the early days of January, 1999. Out of the 22 tracks, 9 are from Stratford. The recording is faithful to those evenings . . . the songs still provoke images of that great evening! We can't wait to have them back! END
