(Grant
Bell, John Didlick & Gary McKenzie)
Remember the good old days of… ”braaivleis,
rugby, sunny skies and…”? Well, The Gee Jays - John Didlick, Gary McKenzie and
Grant Bell - are back, by popular demand, with their smash hit show Don’t Tune Me – Ek Se which will run at
the renovated Rhumbelow Theatre.
The line-up, together with the usual madcap
antics of The Gee Jays promises to 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 – all of them hits on
Springbok Radio - 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 children),
then this show is for you. They are all the tunes the Gee Jays have a soft spot
for – even if they never admit it.
Great 70’s artists like Paul McCartney and
Wings and, of course The Village People. The Beatles, The Bee Gees, The Bellamy
Brothers and Jim Croche, and the great Neil Diamond. Not to mention some of the
many great South African bands who made it big in the 70s, like Alan Garity,
Charisma 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’…
