It's funny this comes up in the comments, because I was there, front row, and I absolutely love Dolly and didn't think it for a moment. But my friend that I as with did comment after we left that the instrument playing and singing was mimed. He also noted there was no indication of a power source for any of the instrument's audio (perhaps we don't understand the technology). Maybe my thoughts on the matter are tainted because I love her so much. At any rate, I thought it was a great show and I had my moments with her. :)
the saxophone and violin are canned and it's part of the joke. But she is obviously not lip syncing. I've seen her in concert every concert for the past 10 years, she doesn't lip sync.
Just saw her tonight in Columbus Ohio and was pretty sure most of her show was mimed- this section being the most obvious- the big clue is that long beginning blast giving Dolly a easy cue to begin.
she is really playing the instruments! stop hating and i saw her live and was in the first row right in front of the stage and i saw Dolly playing the instruments!! not fake and no mimed
Paying fans care. She is a legend and has written and performed amazing songs. Funny you say she puts on a show, but she's not singing! That's Macy's day parade crap or music award show behavior, not a tour when you're performing for 2 hours.
She is a brilliant artist. She has a great personality and tells funny stories and has 50 years or boob jokes to tell and I really enjoyed all of that part of the show. She also has a great fan base so it's sad that she presents herself this way because they would support whatever she does on stage. I saw Del Mcoury(not sure of spelling). A few years back and he is older then Dolly. He didn't have a powerful voice but a personality as magnetic as Dolly and he surrounded himself with great musicians, some relatives, who took turns singing songs with him and it was a great show and I didn't even know his music. Dolly needs to tear this show down a rebuild it with out the miming. It's cheesy, boring and dishonest. I don't agree that everyone now mimes. This is the first mimed show I have ever seen and I have seen many.
We attended this show last night and most of it is mimed. Her instrument playing and singing is all canned. Sad to pay good money for a puppet show. She should deal with her age in a more honest way like other musicians her age have done.

How can she play sax that good if she wasn't in the high school band?!
Is there anything this woman can't do?!
