Critical reception Melissa Ruggieri of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution said, "If you loved their perfectly pleasant bar tunes back then, you'll appreciate that this is a well-produced nostalgic romp featuring a setlist stacked with singalongs, an effective stage show (sharp lighting, major video screen action) and a band that sounds record perfect." [ 4] Billboard positively reviewed the band's performance in Nashville, praising Sonefeld's drumming, their cover of "Losing My Religion ", the fusion of country and rock, and pairing with Barenaked Ladies.
