KevB Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 (edited) Didn't they do this with Ronnie Dio and that Elvis fella? (though not on stage together). Edited April 12, 2018 by KevB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casapete Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 After that album with the RPO I really want Roy to be left as we remember him, rather than another cash in like Elvis. Not sure a hologram show is really doing that. It will be 30 years ago in December since he died, aged 52. Anyone wanting to see Roy in concert could do a lot worse than just buy the DVD ‘A Black and White Night’. Filmed in 1987, it features a lot of guest musicians and shows Roy still at his best.

bazzbass Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 it's disgraceful that they bill it as "Roy Orbison Live" should be put to a stop by consumer affairs, fair dinkum. False and misleading advertising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulWarning Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Although I like a few of the Big O's records, and he had a great voice, I thought he was an awful live performer, no movement, no interaction with the audience, completely lacking in any personality, (from the clips I've seen) why would you want to go to see a hologram of him is beyond me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onstage, he was extremely shy. I think a lot of people think he had eyesight problems because of the dark glasses, but in reality he was hiding behind them.

I thought, my memory isn’t what it was so forgive me if I’m wrong, either McCartney or Harrison had sat on his glasses and broke them? He only had his prescription sunglasses left to go on stage, so wore them so he could at least make out the rest of the band. Once he’d wore them once, he carried on wearing them for the rest of the tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelus Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 I’ve got family going to see him ( well, the show at least ) in Liverpool next week, so I’ll find out what they thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
