Geebus, is Kenny Rogers still capable of movement and song at the same time?

I always pick the 2 Roxette songs on Singstar as I can ace almost anyone on them.
Na na na na na, na na na na na na, na na na na na she's got the look.

Kenny Rodgers had just had a knee reconstruction, he had a stool but he was walking around, he looked old, but his voice was fantastic, his humour was awesome, and he was even fist pumping a bit! I'm tracking when he has concerts in the states, I want a better seat and it was his farewell aussie tour. It really was great. I have his hits album in my car, (always been a fan) and I can still get the concert feel listening to certain songs. So many great stories in his songs. The gambler, Lucille, ruby, coward of the county, and I love day time friends. He just has such a warm voice.

Got rod Stewert tickets for next month! Been to more concerts in the last year than I have in my life!

Worldy enough the only song I ace is suspicious minds!

The Stepson and i used to go toe to toe over Scorpions, winds of change and both get up round 9000. Then i stopped gaming the system and started singing for real and my scores dropped dramatically.

But yeah, i don't mind a bit of Kenny. Geez, I reckon I have sheet music of some of his songs that I learned to play when i was a kid.

Well I should maybe qualify my awful Roxette post, just googled it, and she has had intense chemo for a brain tumour. Awful.

That may be the basis for a campaign for donations and it certainly is a basis for sympathy. I don't think its an excuse for turning up to perform, taking people's money and putting on a poor show. It's awful but not an excuse for wasting everyone's time and money, unless, of course, it was expressly advertised as a benefit show.

Yeah that's what I thought! Didn't want to say it. I'm not a massive fan, just like some of their old hits, (and it seems from Google I'm not the only disappointed they played mainly stuff I've never heard! ) feeling nostalgic I guess, and booking in some stuff from "my generation" before they are past performing!

Haven't heard them for quite some time. Heard the sampler recently but the Gotan Project was "burned" for me many years ago.

Very sexy don't you think? Although I couldn't imagine you with a long stemmed rose between your non existent teeth.
