Caloundra RSL was standing room only when a capacity crowd of over 1,000 people came to cheer on and see the diverse range of talent the Senior Superstar Finalists had to offer.

13 acts including singers that covered all genres of music, two troupes of tap dancers even a horse had everyone entertained.

Judges performer and producer Paul Dellit, Sunshine FM Radio Station Manager Ken O’Flaherty and special guest judge Gold Logie winner John Wood had a tough job on their hands.

In third place was 87-year-old Ann Finch from Birtyana.  Three was a lucky number for Ann as this is the third year she has entered. Ann played on the harmonica a Waltzing Matilda/Danny Boy medley.  John Wood was impressed as were the crowd as they sung along to her playing.

Ann won a $300 Woolworths gift Voucher courtesy of All Smiles Denture Clinic and a $100 gift voucher from Caloundra RSL.

Johnny Bee, 68 from Currimundi looked spectacular in a suit he made himself coming in second place as he rocked the house singing the Johnny O’Keefe classic “She’s My Baby”.

Johnny won 2 night’s accommodation at Mantra Legends Hotel at Surfers Paradise, with dinner for 2 in the hotel’s Fables Restaurant compliments of National Seniors Travel plus $100 Gift voucher from Caloundra RSL

The winners of Senior Superstar Sunshine Coast 2009 were a duo called the Likely Lads who sung a song entitled “Working Where the Sun Don’t Shine”. The Likely Lads, Brian Williams, 62 from Buddina and Geoffrey Harrod-Eagles, 58 from Minyama dressed in surgery outfits sung an amusing song about the pitfalls of being a “below the waist” surgeon! Brian and Geoffrey were wrapped to have won and can’t wait to use their prize from Travel Train of the trip for two to Cairns Queenslander Class on the Sunlander. The prize includes four nights accommodation in Cairns, a Cape Tribulation 4WD Safari with Tropical Horizons, and a Kuranda Scenic Railway and Skyrail Experience. The value of the prize is $3,000.

Plus a $200 Gift voucher from Caloundra RSL.
