Barry Gibb turned 63 on September 1 (and yes, I assure you he did!)
This is fantastic. I saw this tour. I saw the Sydney show on November 15, my 29th birthday. I absolutely love this song.

Re: Rock N Roll Birthdays
I love the Bee Gees, especially Barry! I have that video of Melbourne & have spent many, many happy hours watching it. I saw the Bee Gees on their "Spirits Having Flown" tour in Montreal in 1979. I made a special trip just to see them. Wow!
Did you know that Barry's birthday was also his 39th wedding anniversary! Quite a record these days, particularly in the entertainment industry.
Although I still love Barry (& the Bee Gees) ,Glenn (& the Eagles) has taken over the #1 spot in my heart.
Re: Rock N Roll Birthdays
The second time we saw them at the Sydney Cricket Ground in (I think) 2007 they sang the national anthem of their homeland, the Isle of Man. It was incredibly moving. Maurice's death was a tragedy (in the real sense, not the 'Tragedy' sense). They wrote and sang some of the greatest songs of all time. I'm with you, GL.

Re: Rock N Roll Birthdays
That version of Whiskey In The Jar is absolutely awesome. I love that guitar riff. The Dublin audience yelling out the words - it always makes me wish I was 'real' Irish and not just descended from Ireland.

It's a perfect occupation for me.

Aaah, happy birthday to Mr. Waters for Sunday! An incredible lyricist. Pink Floyd remains one of my all-time favourite bands. The second video got me. Aaah, Richard Wright
