Rod Stewart

[wolvesultra]

This is possibly the most interesting of Laurie's comments, especially to non Rod fans:-

Wolves Managing Director Laurie Dalrymple said: “It has been 15 years since Molineux hosted a live music event, so today’s announcement is very significant for both Wolves and the city of Wolverhampton.

“Attracting top performers like Rod Stewart to Wolverhampton is part of our wider strategic plan to make Molineux a multi-purpose entertainment destination that welcomes visitors from the city and further afield.

“We will work closely with the City Council to ensure a successful event that drives local economy whilst being considerate to residents.”

Sounds good to be fair they do seem to be working with the council a lot more than before, those fan parks etc.

No massive Rod fan but surely this is good news for Wolves and Wolverhampton.

I know people worry about the pitch but if its done properly shouldn't be an issue. Some top clubs like Man City have gigs there regularly.

Ahh the days of Boarding School. When you spent 5 years avoiding getting thrashed by a middle aged women.

And now you pay 50 quid for it.

I pay a lot more than £50!!!

Reminds me of the joke-
“What is the difference between a lentil and a chickpea”

Bizarrely, I’ve played a game against him at his house so I guess it’s only fair.

Penny bringing out the refreshments was a highlight.

Did Rod play? He's a bit like Planty in that respect - always fancied himself as a footballer .

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

Only 50?

You should've seen the woman.

 

[Glow69]

About time we start holding a few concerts. Good move

Really??!! How did you manage that Tring?

I love Rod Stewart, was he a sound bloke?

 

[Liskeard wolf]

Seen him perform twice at home park Plymouth. Puts on a good show. You'll love it

 

[Netherton Wolf]

I won't be going but Maggie may

My favourite record of all time, already got it planned for my funeral,

I sat next to Penny at one of his concerts years ago, she was very nice

 

[Mr Wolf]

Anyone know how many loyalty points you’ll need for this?

He has a ‘celebrity’ veterans team and occasionally invites other teams to play against them on the immaculate pitch in his gardens.

I got brought in as a ringer for our veterans team who were invited there a few years back.

Didn’t speak much to him but seemed like a decent bloke. Penny was absolutely beautiful!

£80 for Silver gig and football priority pass

Brilliant.

And you’re right Penny is amazing!

I've been told that about you

I'd expect to be given a free season ticket for next season for attending...

 

[UEAwolf]

Was Bon Jovi the last gig at Molineux?

 

[Deleted member 4594]

Was Bon Jovi the last gig at Molineux?

Yes 2003.

 

[Tojo the grass]

Nah he peeked at Python Lee Jackson for me, although his Faces and early seventies stuff is alright, each to their own though..

 

[Wolvesfcneil]

It depends on how many old motown records you bring with you

 

[Thank you Sir Jack]

Will get tickets for my mother, she loves him!

Sounds a good swap.

Not forgetting In a Broken Dream was a re release after the public realised it was same vocalist as on Maggie May

 

[steve vena]

It's a no from me. Can we not get New Order or something?

 

[Tojo the grass]

Great track though, I prefer it to Hot Legs

 

[northnorfolkwolf]

One of my all time favourites, seen him many many times over last 40years roll on next time

He was great back in his blues/ Jeff Beck days but he's been a joke the last 20 years! 'Do you think I'm sexy?' - yeah right!

 

[Tojo the grass]

I think the killing of Georgie is the last song of his I actually liked, he became a silver suited parody after that.

 

[RosehillWolf]

Yep me too, still have it on vinyl somewhere

 

[RosehillWolf]

Should be fairly easy....a procession...

'Hot legs' is your typical Radio 2 Rod Stewart song. Bit like 'Saturday Night's alright for fighting' as representative of Elton John. Such a shame such great singers are identified by such **** songs. If only people would bother to listen to their 60s/early 70s stuff which was fantastic.

Very true, Elton John brought out some truly awful stuff in the eighties but ‘goodbye yellow brick road’ is a songwriting master class, same as Rod really, in fact lots of artists lost their way in the eighties despite making a lot of money, grim times.

Go on...I've not heard it before chick pea I get but lentil?

Oh dear !

 

[AndyY]

I think the club should be maximising revenue but in previous years we have re-laid the pitch, so i guess we are not doing that this year.
Other football/ rugby stadia have had issues with the pitch after being used for concerts.
The Groundstaff are probably not happy.

 

[Big Saft Kid]

Maggie May was always a favourite of mine. I was in my prime back then (1971) and up to all sorts!

A right self-centred ******** according to Ian McLagan, keyboard player with the Small Faces and Faces.

Apologies in advance...

“Well, I wouldn’t pay £200 to have a lentil in my face”.

But if we're going to ground-share and a part of the stadium is up for renewal then it won't matter.

 

[Golden Oldie]

He's often wearing a Celtic top never heard of him being a.man u fan

more likely Dundee United ......
