Lou Gramm almost as sad as watching Frankie Valli

[Don't Damn Me]

Lou's doing a few South American shows with Foreigner appearing for a four song encore. Some Geographic legality prevented Kelly Hansen from appearing so they've got one of their guitar players, Luis maldono , otherwise singing. He hits the notes a lot more effortlessly than Kelly does. Plus he's really embracing the frontman role. He doesn't leave the stage when Lou appears. And it's for a reason

I love Lou Gramm I'm just going to say what I thought, so miserable Lou walks on stage. you know he sounds okay not like he did at all obviously but he is the guy. So his first song Jukebox Hero they go into an extended jam and while all the guys are running around and jumping and appearing youthful Lou is planted like a f****** tree, wacking away at a cowbell. Meanwhile Luis seems to be working overtime to make Lou comfortable and to make sure everything runs smoothly. Lou does his best, we get to the high notes at the end "stars in his eyes" and in a perfect handoff he stops singing, however keeping the mic close to his mouth while Luis turns his back on the audience and hits those notes.
Looks like I'm not going to have a chance to watch the other songs anybody want to finish this review.

Something weird that I think Lou Gramm has in common with TNT vocalist Tony harnell. They're both very talented but neither have ever achieved a Cool frontman vibe. Like they don't know what to say to the audience, and you just can't have that when it comes to Arena and Stadium Rock

He’s 75 … he’s doing better than I expected … acceptable and age appropriate.

One song … I believe it’s Hot Blooded is played too fast for him, it sounds too fast period.

[Fletch]

I saw Lou headline a riverfest show in Gadsden AL 15 or so years ago and I think that was before he had his serious health issues - he sounded pretty bad then and I can’t imagine the poor guy has gotten better over time. His solo band was pretty solid.

[Venus Flytrap]

Lou is a shadow of his former self, granted, but at least his performance is honest. Valli is a fraud lip syncing up there and doing a terrible job of it. His lips barely move.

[Wild Obsession]

Current scab lead vocalist comes across like an American Idol reject/cruise ship entertainer, and IMO is more of an on stage "embarrassment" than Lou Gramm. And the Dokken guy seems way to "animated".
