Rod Stewart

Verona. While his former band, the Faces, is planning to return to perform without him (to replace him in this impossible task, there will be red Mick Hucknall of Simply Red), the "old lion" of British rock, Rod Stewart continues his tour Soulbook 2010 and does not care. Tonight (at 21) will be in concert at the Arena for the only Italian date of the tour that celebrates his latest album, Soulbook, a reworking of some classic soul music of the 60s and 70s. For Rod it is the repetition of songs for him are real books. 

The young Stewart 60s, in fact, before knowing the reputation with the Faces and later as a soloist, he learned to sing by learning the phrasing of Sam Cooke, the grit of Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett power and sensuality by James Brown . In addition to songs soul, the lineup of the concert tonight will be formed by hits Rod, among which there will (presumably) Tonight's the Night, Hot Legs, Forever young, Downtown Train Tom Waits, You Wear It Well, "Rhythm of my Heart, Some Guys Have All The Luck, Young Turks, It's The Same Old Song, "Maggie May" and "Have I Told You Lately That I Love You by Van Morrison. 

Among the goodies, an electrifying version of Sweet rock and roller Chuck Berry. They also say that has not lost the habit of kicking to the public a series of autographed balls in honor of his passion for football. Among the members of his band, stands the blonde Katja Rieckermann saxophonist and the new vocalist, Lorelei McBroom, already toured with Pink Floyd and the Rolling Stones. The conditions for a night of great entertainment are all there. G. BR.
