Her husband excelled on the guitar but it was like watching someone on TV. She was going thru the motions and cared very little about connecting with the audience. She announced they were towards the end of the concert tour and it seemed like they were ready to go home.

Benatar was cordial but rushed thru the songs and left the stage after an hour 8 mins for an encore. The stage is very deep and the drummer was set way in the back. She was very connected to her husband and very disconnected to the other two band members. There was no movement towards the audience on the sides. It seemed as though she was filming for a show and needed to stay in the frame. She remained centered stage walking back and forth to the drum set with her back to the audience a majority of the time. Her vocals were good but not as strong as they use to be.

The show started about 5 minutes late with little pomp and Pat Benatar immediately started singing her hits. The doors opened 1 hour before show time, security check was simple and the staff (as you enter the concert venue) were very controlling insisting you must not have the intelligence to find your own seat. Box office for concerts was very cordial and prompt with transactions. I liked the food court area with quick order and tables to relax and eat. The hotel/casino were very nice, clean with free parking in a 4 level car garage.
