Joe Cocker’s days on thegreen

in Local News

Grammy, Golden Globe and Academy Award winner, Joe Cocker OBE will headline the 10th birthday season of the Day On The Green shows and play a run of capital city shows in February.

While the Days on the Green will feature less ‘green’ than Cocker’s set at Woodstock (and certainly less brown acid) the Sheffield born singer still promises deliver plenty of highlights, including songs from his new album Hard Knocks and his classic interpretations of songs including You Can Leave Your Hat On, Unchain My Heart, Up Where We Belong, The Letter and You Are So Beautiful.

Slide guitar master George Thorogood and his band the Destroyers, will join Cocker for full tour, with the Day On The Green concerts also set to feature Diesel and ARIA Hall of Fame inductees The Dingos on the lineup of gritty R&B, blues and soul.

Please be advised the Townsville concert scheduled for tomorrow night by Joe Cocker, with George Thorogood & The Destroyers, has been postponed due to Cyclone Yasi.

The Cairns show tonight (and the Brisbane show this Friday) will go ahead as scheduled.

Bummer.

My parents are going to this next weekend in Bowral. Not a huge Cocker fan, but the man has a ridiculously powerful voice.
