DON’T TUNE ME - EK SE



(Grant Bell, John Didlick & Gary McKenzie)

Remember the good old days of ”Braaivleis, rugby, sunny skies and....”

Well, The Gee Jays (Gary McKenzie, John Didlick and Grant Bell) are back, by popular demand, with their smash hit show, Don’t Tune Me – Ek Se, this time at Tina’s Hotel in Kloof.

The line-up, together with the usual madcap antics of The Gee Jays will have audiences rolling in the aisles as well as remembering what they were doing when these discs were being spun, back in the day.

“If these songs take you back ... Pretty Belinda, Yellow River, Tie a Yellow Ribbon and Rhinestone Cowboy, Let Your Love Flow and Have You Ever Seen the Rain jog a fond memory for you (or your youngsters), then this show is for you. They are all the tunes we have a soft spot for – even if we never admit it,” says Gary McKenzie.

The show pays tribute to great 70’s artists like Bob Marley, Lobo, Paul McCartney and Wings and, of course The Village People as well as The Beatles, The Bee Gees, The Bellamy Brothers and Cliff Richards, and the great Neil Diamond. Not to mention some of the many great South African bands who made it big in the 70’s, like Charisma, Alan Garity and even Jeremy Taylor.

It’s an evening of pure South African nostalgia not to be missed. Oh yes and... Bring your laughing tackle - Ek se!

The show is presented at Tina’s Hotel in Kloof in “supper theatre” format and runs for eight performances from November 20, 21, 23 and 30 with lunch time shows on November 19, 21, 26 and 28 to cater for the festive season corporate market.
