At the ages of over 60, some artists are still going strong an are still touring and releasing albums. But there comes a time when every artist needs to stop, and unfortunately there are a few artists who don't know when that time is. A couple years ago I was at the footy here in Australia and the Grand Final performance was Meat Loaf. Now despite threatening not coming out on stage because there was a light rain, which had stopped an hour before hand, he was absolutely terrible, and looked as though he was having a heart attack on stage, he couldn't hit any notes, and was just appalling. Not only this, he then blamed the stadium for his performance.
I'm a huge Beatles fan, and I love Paul McCartney, but at the Diamond Jubilee he was showing, to me, a nearing end to his performing career unfortunately, as he really struggled to hit the top notes.
Who else do you reckon is reaching the end? And do you agree with me? Is there a point when performers need to stop?
