Rod Stewart – Still Sexy?

It should be "Don't ya know I'm Sexy". Even at 62 years young, Rod "The BOD" Stewart put on a two plus hour show with true showmanship and all the glitz and glamour of yesteryear!

Accompanied by three female backup singers, a blond bombshell playing saxophone, and a full band, he kept the play list bubbly by swinging to tracks off his new album like Seger's "Still the Same", and a touching rendition of Cat Steven's, "Father and Son". Stewart was also still able to capture the crowd like days of old by waving his booty to everyone during "Hot Legs" and "Do ya think I'm Sexy". He also played some other classics like "First Cut is the Deepest" and "Maggie May" for his encore that left the crowd begging for more.

The stage, in the shape of a proverbial 8, featured large screen televisions and an enormous disco ball that was illuminated during his 1984 hit, "Infatuation".

Stewart was unable to hit the highs we are all accustomed to hearing, but at 62, it was a delight to see his energy and showmanship still shine through!
