Rod Stewart Brings ALL The Hits Back

Rod Stewart brought ALL the HITS and then some back this past Saturday night in Niagara Ontario, Canada for his final leg of his North American Tour. And then some? Well, Sir Rod always has time to play some classics that he himself if a fan of outside of his own very large catalogue of music. Even opening up the show with Robert Palmers hit “Addicted To Love”, which he and his amazing band always nail, there’s something super cool about the fact that even with his ginormous success, the night isn’t all about him, it’s about the music.

Accompanying Rod on backups are a very talented group of singers, consisting of Becca Kotte, Joanne Bacon and Holly Brewer. Showing his swagger that he still has what it takes to command a stage, of course he is a well dressed and dapper man from the rock.

It’s all glam and rock but staying on the top take a lot of work and Sir Rod sure puts it in by still performing like he’s 19. Giving every fan a run for their money by dedicating the show to each and every person there by acknowledging everyone in the building. Everyone made eye contact with him at one point or another in the evening when he performed songs like Maggie May, First Cuts The Deepest, Baby Jane, I Don’t Want To Talk About It, Young Turks, Some Guys, Sexy, Stay With Me, people get Ready, Downtown Train…. I am out of breath… And about 15 others as well!

During the evening Sir Rod gave out a heartfelt message about his thoughts and prayers to everyone suffering in Ukraine. Dedicating his song Rhythm Of My Heart to all who that have suffered and all who will. It was lovely too see that even though most of the world has forgotten about what’s happening in Ukraine that there are still some out there who have a heart for those who never had a choice.
