That’s brutal!

How does anyone think it’s right to have Jack out on the road? Be it Jack, bandmates, promoters, booking agent, or management.

I know there’s a lot of opinions on Jack, but I would not want to wake up every day and walk in his shoes.

I don’t see anything wrong with this. You’re just jealous!

I’m being sarcastic. I made it through about 5 seconds of that. He is so overly medicated I doubt he even realizes how bad that is.

Dead man walking for sure...

Band is just using him for a meal ticket.

CEO... any idea what a guarantee on something like that would be??? I guess it comes down to how many heads are in the room vs quality of performance but wow.

A fan on FB writes the following...


"""""""""""""Whoever the promoter is for Jack Russell's great white band you should pull your head out of your ass and understand that the show we saw at Lava Cantina The Colony tonight was an embarrassment to have jack russell in the shape he is in up on stage trying to sing this show was very sad he couldn't sing or remember were he was even at ....the band Rocked but jack russell was in no shape or mind frame to be on a stage anywhere....I felt like it was a "weeknight at bernies"....unbelievable and the crowd were in a state of shock at what they saw and paid for....He couldn't get five words out of his mouth and couldn't even hold or at times find the microphone....Great White (Jack Russell ) was one of my all time favorite singers and I blame the fuckin promoter for not calling this over in out....Jack is too sick and can't perform or even remember what the hell is going on ,and to pay for this!! the promoter of this show needs there head pulled out of there ass!!!""""""""""""""""""

Holy crap... he's in terrible shape. Does he not have an advocate for his health?

This is straight up Elder Abuse. He looks like he's a fragile 85 year old that could collapse at any time.

All jokes aside, this is about the saddest attempt at performing I've seen form our 80's idols. Yikes!

I understand the concert-goers disappointment, but I think he/she is mad at the wrong person. The promoter simply bought a show from Jack’s booking agent… he’s not part of Jack’s inner circle. Jack’s band, manager, and booking agent are the ones who should be putting a stop to this.

As the video circulates, I can’t see too many more promoters willing to buy this shit show, so one way or another this is coming to an end.

How does he actually get on stage? Do they bring him on the chair already (sort of like the Horah Dance)? His body is melding into itself, but at least he will never wear out a pair of shoes.

WTAF did I just watch? :shock:

High school bands do a better job as they are just getting started.

What’s sad is that he will be on Eddie Trunk in a few weeks or months about how great life is. He will give a song and dance about writing a new album, the songs are “amazing” and then Eddie will push him on this. He will say he hurt his back and misjudged his medication that day and something like “Rock n roll and the show must go on”.

If there is ever more respect for bands that decide to call it a day this is why.

My god pure and utter dog shit!

This is far beyond "past your prime." Seriously depressing.

On top of that the headliner was FireHouse without CJ.

At the beginning of this one, the dude with the red guitar asks, "Are you okay?" He looks like he has the "death stare" my dad had in hospice the day he died. The looks on the band members' faces indicate the obvious. In between seconds of rock guy poses, they look either embarrassed or like, "holy shit...what are we supposed to do?"
