(John Didlick, Grant Bell &
Gary McKenzie)
The Gee Jays - John
Didlick, Gary McKenzie and Grant Bell - are back with another nostalgic musical
journey in Our Way at the Rhumbelow
Theatre in Pietermaritzburg this month and in Durban in September.
“Join us as we take you on a sentimental journey back to the time when
music was music. What we’ve found out is that there’s the right way, the wrong
way and there’s the railway. But this time we’re doing it “our way”,” they
explain.
The talented trio, now enjoying their 32nd year together, take audiences
on a trip down memory lane and back again with some of those long-forgotten
songs from such great artists like Andy Williams, Nat King Cole , Bill Haley
& The Comets, Frank Sinatra , Dean Martin, Engelbert Humperdink, Louis
Armstrong, Frank Ifield and more.
The trip back moves through the eras of Elvis Presley, Neil Diamond, The
Beatles, Buddy Holly, The Commodores, John Lennon, Simon & Garfunkel and
Robbie Williams to name but a few. Some of the numbers featured are: Wonderful World, Rock Around The Clock,
Drift Away, Bridge Over Troubled Waters, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,
That’ll Be The Day, Sha Boom and, of course, My Way.
All this, interwoven with the notorious Gee Jays own style of comic
patter, goes to make up an evening’s entertainment not to be forgotten. So,
come along and enjoy The Gee Jays doing it their way.
