Coorparoo RSL auditorium was packed to the rafters with extra tables and chairs being brought in for the crowd eager to see Senior Superstar Heat 4.
The first of the Southside heats was full of variety as ten acts presented a range of performances including an accordion player, harmonica player, a comedian, and songs from Broadway, opera, an auctioneers song and a humorous song about a cricketer’s itch.
The talent was so good that the judges decision was tough. So tough in fact that we had yet another tie.
Max Johnson, finalist from last year as well as this year’s poster boy for Senior Superstar looked dapper and sung the Tom Jones classic “Green Green Grass of Home”.
He tied with Linda Lee who looked great in her poodle skirt singing the Connie Francis hit “Lipstick on Your Collar”.
Rocking dancers and crowd favourites, Herbert and Sonia showed us some smooth Rock ‘n Roll moves. Herb, a spritely 83 years old proved that you are never too old to rock.
First time entrant Bill Healey brought the house down with his tricky song called “The Auctioneer”. Bill scored the double and won the People’s Choice.
Join us for Heat 5 Sunday 11 July, 2pm at Sherwood Services Club.
There’s only two heats left to the Semi finals!
