Strewth is he still alive?

My mum liked him, and she's been dead over 30 years.

The man is still kicking at 86 years old.....long live "Can't take my eyes off of you"

I remember seeing an interview with Rod Stewart years ago where he introduced the guys in his new band and gave a brief rundown on each musician's prior musical history. When he got to the drummer Rod said his drummer had once played with Engelbert Humperdinck, "and we told him if he ever does it again then that's it."

Engelbert is a master but he must be 90 by now or close to it. It's a wonder to me why these people continue to perform and I don't believe it is because they want to.

My mother was his other fan. She's been dead for many years as well. Doesn't bode well for the fan club.

He's 86 now so guess anybody of similar age will be in the audience, assuming that there  is adequate wheelchair access I guess.

Ergo why its limited to 300, must be just enough room for the zimmer frames and 4 wheel electric carts

And on a more serious note I hope the evacuation routes are visible, fire extinguishers are in date and that they will ensure all emergency exists are open and uncluttered. With so many old people likely there even a small incident could soon turn tragic.

No he is 86 now , not dead yet but his voice may seem like he has crooked already ????

The real talent was PJ Proby. Englebert was a gimmick and Tom a bore.

[Sparktrader]

Who would pay 16,000 baht for that rubbish?

It comes with a 3 course meal, I am sure its not a 3 course geriatric meal with Ensure as the first course,

Blended Steak protein shake with green Jello with fruit inside as the main course,

a

 

And the 3rd course a jar of Gerber Organic Prune to ensure a bowel movement is easy in the morning....

2000 baht meal

14000 baht bad music

You mean the guy who said he'd be bigger than the Beatles? His only talent was splitting the seams on his trousers.

No. You are wrong. He was banned by the BBC for the trousers  splitting incident but he was the real talent with the raw  sexual  energy.

Great news I'm in Hua Hin even better news I'm busy washing something ????  

[VocalNeal]

Does it say he will sing or simply be there? Asking for a friend.

Have been a long time fan also. At his best 1964 - 1968 was unique and spectacular. Ruined his career with alcohol and bad behaviour abuses. Now sober, still performing at 84 to his faithful fans and releasing his own recordings albeit of a different tone/genre. Has lost that emotive, soaring edge to his voice that previously made him great.
