When you think of “Good Vibrations,” what do you think of? The Beach Boys?
That would be normal, but what I’ve always thought of is Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch.
However, I just saw a show called Good Vibrations at The Carolina Opry in Myrtle Beach, so see ya later, Marky Mark.
A new memory’s in this clown.
When we pulled up at dusk, the lights were winkin’ at me.
It was a musical stage show with songs from the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s and….it was awesome!
The performers sang, danced, and humored us through some of the most memorable songs of yesteryear, starting with ZZ Top.
Lots of costume changes and props added to the fun.
Eric Gumm – the comedy (plus he can sing)
Kim Perry Williams
Trent Wideman
Do you remember the dance group, “All That” from America’s Got Talent? They performed too!
Those boys can kick a foot and a leg around, let me tell ya.
But this guy stole the show for me. Wow, what a voice.
Brad Long – my pick as the vocal star of the show – AMAZING!
If you’re ever in Myrtle Beach, go see this show. It’s really, really fun! I LOVED it!
Holiday Tip:
Beginning November 1st and all through the holiday season, The Carolina Opry presents the very popular Christmas Show!

I never knew Carolina had an Opry so thanks for sharing.
One of the longest trips on my life when when my Daddy drove us from NY to Nashville because he was a die hard country music fan.
Glad you had fun!
Judy Slade Bolen says
In regard to the Carolina Opry shows, I have seen them all. It is a “must stop” activity when I am in Myrtle Beach, regardless of how many times I have seen it, I have to always go. Love the performers who are so down to earth and always willing to speak with you after the show. Sad that some of the performers that I saw when I first attended many years ago are not longer there for one reason or another, but no matter, it’s always the best show in town. Will soon be there again and I can’t wait.
Xmasdolly says
WOO HOO CHRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRISTMASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS LUV IT!!!!! Wow! That was some show! Thanks so much for sharing the pictures you took! HUGSSSSSSS

Love Myrtle Beach and would have loved this show. Will saying, “it is my kind of music” admit I’m old?
Stephanie Phelps says
I don’t usually go see shows because I am afraid they will be horrible and then I have wasted a lot of money but after reading your review I will definitely be going to this one the next time I go. Thank you so much for sharing.
Carol,L says
I didn’t know there was an Opry in North Carolina. My son lives in North Carolina but he’s been deployed for awhile so I’ll excuse him for not mentioning it. 🙂 I LOVE ZZ Top. The show looked great and I’m definitely going to check it out when we visit on the next holiday he’s home. Thanks for your post.

I don’t know why people go all the way to Florida when Myrtle Beach is so close. The palm trees and water remind me of the tropics.
