Bee Gees tribute Stayin' Alive.

Stayin' Alive

(2024 Isthmus pick) The Bee Gees started as a skiffle band in the early 1960s and ended up as the kings of disco; the band played in Madison at what was then known as the Dane County Coliseum in 1976 and 1979. If you caught either of those shows, lucky you. Missed the brothers Gibb in concert? Consider the tribute band Stayin' Alive, who brave the falsetto. This night of music covers the band’s greatest hits from the ballads to the '70s R&B classics. Come on, you should be dancing. Yeah.

media release: STAYIN’ ALIVE: One Night of the Bee Gees is the ultimate tribute to the brothers Gibbs and they offer their audiences the songs and sights of a full Bee Gees playlist, singing blockbusters such as “Night Fever,” “Jive Talkin’,” “How Deep Is Your Love,” “You Should Be Dancing,” “Nights on Broadway,” and “Stayin’ Alive.” In addition, they perform softer poetic ballads such as “I Started a Joke,” “Massachusetts,” “Fanny Be Tender,” “Words,” and “To Love Somebody” among other great hits.

STAYIN’ ALIVE is the largest and most definitive production of its kind, offering big screen video clips, photos and dazzling imagery. Stayin’ Alive has played intimate settings as a six piece band and huge venues with a 62 piece orchestra.

Tony Mattina (Barry Gibb-Lead Vocals and Guitar) - Tony is a proud Hamilton, Ontario boy who has played with numerous other tribute ands and is a veteran on the Toronto music scene.
