DAYTONA BEACH — Two types of women’s panties flew at singer Tom Jones during his sold-out concert Tuesday night at Peabody Auditorium: sexy, sheer thongs the width of spaghetti, and a few granny panties the size of Nebraska. Which ones did the 1960s-spawned pop crooner deserve? For most of the night — those thongs, though [...]
How Tom Jones made sexual innuendo the lingua franca of rock and roll. Long before the birth of modern boytoy crooners, long before Justin would volunteer to bring sexy back, long before sexy would need bringing back, women by the scores (pun intended) excitedly tossed bras and panties at a stage occupied by a curly-haired [...]
Before I begin this review, I have to post a disclaimer: I write reviews and criticism for a living and at all times try to be objective. That is true here, too. But I have to let you know that I am a Tom Jones fan. Jones began playing here almost 40 years ago and [...]
When it comes to sex appeal in the AARP demographic, Tom Jones is no Mick Jagger. He’s better. Of course, such judgments are subjective, but based on the sheer number of women’s undergarments tossed on stage at Friday’s sold-out show at Hard Rock Live, the 66-year-old sex symbol is way hotter than that kid in [...]
HE is known as simply “The Voice” and last night legendary sex-bomb Sir Tom Jones showed exactly why. The crowd at Glasgow’s packed Clyde Auditorium was on its feet from start to finish as the Welsh singing sensation took to the stage for the first of a two-night stint in the city. Taking his audience [...]
TO loud screams and thunderous applause, Tom Jones performed in his beloved Wales last night for the first time as a knight. Dressed in his signature dark suit, Jones – or Sir Tom – entertained fans in his homeland with a string of hits. It may have been just another date on his current UK [...]
Thousands of desperate housewives converged on Manchester to witness Tom Jones kick off his latest UK tour. So did their daughters, husbands, boyfriends and grandchildren. At 66, the newly knighted singer remains a formidable force of nature, with an appeal that spans as many generations as his undimmed vocal prowess. A commanding stage presence in [...]
THE Voice from the Valleys left fans screaming for more in Manchester last night, after winning the crowd over with a mix of rock, pop, country and blues. A crowd almost 10,000-strong flocked to the MEN arena to hear 66-year-old Sir Tom Jones belt out timeless classics including She’s A Lady, Delilah, Sex Bomb and [...]
THE atmosphere at a Tom Jones’ gig has to be seen to be believed. His audience may be wide in age range, but the one thing they have in common is they worship the man. Some like the swiveling hips and others love the cheesiness of his lavish shows. The one thing that I realised [...]
Tom Jones had been nervous before this first night of his British tour, confided venue staff. The set included all the old favourites from It’s Not Unusual to Kiss but was interspersed with numbers being tested for the first time such as the ballad The Reason. Yet when an excited female fan called out “I [...]
