Brave Or What?

[davebro]

Watching Neil Sedaka at the Albert Hall.

A man & his piano in front of thousands - some guts!

[Theland]

I know of some pubs on the Dock Road where the man on his Joanna had to be very very very brave.

[jennyjoan]

have you a davebro

[jennyjoan]

sorry Davebroo - have you a link please. I love neil sedaka

[wolf63]

I love this song, there are bits of it that give me goosebumps.

[ummmm]

Why brave? It's his job.

Soldiers, police, firemen/women...they're brave

[Theland]

Indeed Ummmm.

[barry1010]

Not brave - everyone there has paid a lot of money because they love him and they are in a great mood, prepared to enjoy themselves. They are not going to give him a hard time.
He is just doing something he has done many, many times before.

[aelmpvw]

brave if he was a list minute replacement for a Stones concert . . .

*last*

[Gill1941]

I agree with ummmm.
Doing what he's done for many years for lots of money.
Soldiers, firemen, lifeboatmen etc are brave.

[davebro]

I'll get me coat.

I saw him live at the Royal Albert Hall a few years ago. I don't know if that's the show you were watching. Absolutely stupendous! A man of genuine talent. He is a STAR in the real sense of the word! Just fabulous.

[bednobs]

Is he still going? Does he still have that voice?

[margarettom]

Loved that wolf @02.10. Thanks.

[naomi24]

bednobs, yes. He is brilliant!

[Peter Pedant]

great showman
did a fantastic master-class which included 'writing ( a likely ) no 1 hit'

classically trained - when the first cheque came in from O Carol ( either 2500 or 25000 bucks he showed his yiddishe momma who said

OK perhaps boogy-woogy but only on satuday mornings....

his mum was protrayed as Beatie ...

[Peter Pedant]

ignore them Dave bro
just like you ignore me
and never never lose your ability to irritate and excoriate ( pick )

[barry1010]

I think it is great that he still performs in relatively small venues that don't cost the earth to attend.

[bednobs]

i saw him about 30 years ago in a local guildhall venue

[bobbie22]

I saw Neil Sedaka in Cardiff quite a few years ago. I really like him, he is excellent. I noticed that most of the audience knew every word of every song, and were singing along with him Lovely
