Sarge, who was the oldest toughest sob on our team was 70 and still playing when we started the party. He threw the salad at the caterer and set him straight. "We drink scotch, eat Tbones rare, fried potatoes, green beans, apple pie, more scotch. Rabbit food is for wimmen and rabbits."



My kind of guy! Leave the leaves out PLEASE!

Rock & Roll, John! Anything from the 'Million Dollar Quartet' and their ilk.

Last night I went to a fantastic gig about 2 hours out of town - Jerry Lee Lewis. With his little sister doing the supporting band act and playing most of his faster rockier numbers (he looks like he has bad arthritis now or something - certainly stiff and fragile). BRILLIANT!!! You should have seen the audience - 16 to 70. Most of them with DA haircuts, Teddy Boy suits, blue suede shoes or the bad-boy rocker type with jeans and a leather jacket with Doc Martins. And the audience MOVED! That is quite strange for an Austrian audience as they are usually sitting there silently and supposedly unappreciative until the gig has finished.

Jerry Lee is in his 70s, his sister is in her 60s.

So...

Jerry Lee Lewis
Elvis Presley
Johnny Cash
Chuck Berry
Little Richard
Carl Perkins
Roy Orbison
Buddy Holly
Bill Haley


a bit of blues:
BB King
Muddy Waters
John Lee Hooker
et al


and for the more English side...
Cliff Richard
The Rolling Stones
Beatles
David Bowie
Elton John
et al

For something a bit quieter, I would turn to the folk music scene:
Bob Dylan
Peter, Paul & Mary
The Seekers
Simon & Garfunkel
The Byrds
etc

Man! I have just turned 50 but I love the rock&roll era! I would love to be a fly on the wall at your gig. I DJ occasionally (when I get the chance) and the above would be my selection for such a party.

Rock it, John!
