Creedence Clearwater Resurrection?

[Starman]

Creedence Clearwater Revival Have Resolved Long-Standing Issues

Hmmmm. We'll see.

 

[Spartan Squad]

Oh please! CCR is in my Top 5 favorites and would love to either see them live or hear some new music. But Fogerty is such a **** I'm not going to hold my breath.

The prospects of a big-bucks reunion tour can do wonders for resolving issues.

But you also have to deal with the Wow, John-Fogerty-is-still-alive? factor

 

[PCLoadLetter]

If they think they're going to cash in, I suspect they'll be disappointed. And Fogerty's brother is still dead.

Billy Joel Plays Two Creedence Classics With John Fogerty: Video – Rolling Stone

This is from about a month ago. Soft focus hides a lot, but he seems pretty spry for 75 or whatever he is.

If they think they're going to cash in, I suspect they'll be disappointed. And Fogerty's brother is still dead.

But so is Saul Zaentz.

*Spry*

That’s what no man older than 50 wants to be described as. At that point, might as well just call us old ****s.

I believe that’s the word they used on The West Wing to describe Alan Alda’s presidential candidate character: spry.

****ing spry.

Now he REALLY can't dance.

Doo doo doo, makin’ phat bank on tour...

A great John Gagliardi line: There's three stages of life. Youth. Middle age. And, "Boy, you're looking good."

Creedence Clearwater Revisited sat behind me at a Braves game once (they were performing post-game). Those were some weathered-looking guys: one looked like he'd been in the sun constantly since about 1972.

Never underestimate the ticket-buying public.

Never underestimate the ticket-buying public.

Maybe.

But Fogerty's been touring and playing these songs for decades. Are there that many people thinking "Screw it, if Stu Cook's not there I'm staying home"?

 

[HanSenSE]

Never underestimate the ticket-buying public.

This reunion has county fair/Indian casino written all over it.

 

[cyclingwriter2]

I saw Fogerty a few years back when he was doing the “best of 1969” show, which basically was all CCR. It was a great show. Outdoor venue. His voice was great and his backup band was fantastic.

“Is granny spry?”

 

[Jake from State Farm]

I saw Fogerty last summer with ZZ Top
Fogerty opened, and I was told he alternated opening and closing shows with them
His son played with him and Billy Gibbons came out and sang a song with him
It was an excellent show
Lot of CCR, but Rock and Roll Girls, Centerfield and other solo songs
ZZ Top was excellent as well

Fogerty is playing the Indian casinos already.

Shows

A full fledged CCR reunion would put him in the sheds.
