You will enjoy it.  I saw him last year and such a good time.  He got a standing ovation every song. 

 

There is a thread on TV and  Movies I started on tonight's performance

I watched a little of the program off and on.  For 90 yrs. old, he looks great and still has his voice.  Good for him!

I'm so bummed I missed a lot of this.  I did see Michael Buble on the show.  He looks good-very thin--probably due to stress about his son. 

 

I hope his son is still doing ok.  Anyway, Tony B. is so talented and such a class act.

 

He seems like a really nice guy too!!!

I recorded this show.  I might watch it now, since I can't sleep.  LOL!

 

Glad to hear Tony still has it, love him.  And I really like Leslie Odom too!


Thanks so much @pitdakota!

Homedecor 1:  Your Mom and Dad and I are same era.  Great music.  No trickery music, pure singing like MICHAEL B. and Lady GA GA.  I saw Dean, Sammy, Sinatra, in old Las Vegas.

 

We cut Class in High School iN San Francisco, and saw DEAN MARTIN AND JERRY LEWIS on stage at the Golden Gate theatre, opening act live, before the premiere of QUO VADIS or BEN HUR    They did a comedy act.  After, we went screaming in the alley while they threw pictures of themselves out a window..  JL had the most beautiful blue eyes.  This was the era at movies, with live opening acts, two movies, news of the day, and a cartoon, usually TOM AND JERRY.  All for 50 cents.  Great memories.

I enjoyed the 90th birthday show last night.  I took my mom to see Tony Bennett back in March and it was a wonderful show.  What a voice!
