Even Deep Purple are still touring now on and off. Age doesnt come into anything when you talk music. playing Live keeps the blood pumping, gives them a rush. Its like our children telling us that we are too old to go to concerts, you must be kidding! Music is my passion, dont care what age I am , Ill still go see my fav bands as long as they keep going. </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/is-inxs-too-old-to-tour-michaels-mother-speaks-out#post-106 Mon, 15 Feb 2010 03:20:27 +0000 Bev 106@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>Never too old for music!!!

Chris Cornell and Pink would be good, too. </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/is-inxs-too-old-to-tour-michaels-mother-speaks-out#post-94 Sat, 13 Feb 2010 04:35:11 +0000 Jen 94@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>Nope. Not too old to tour. As long as they feel like rockin', they should continue doing so. I wouldn't want anyone to tell me that I'm too old to go to concerts. </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/is-inxs-too-old-to-tour-michaels-mother-speaks-out#post-84 Fri, 12 Feb 2010 00:57:55 +0000 Pamela 84@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>NO!!!!! No disrespect for Mrs. Glassop and I do appreciate her views... HOWEVER that would mean Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, U2, AC DC, Rod Stewart, on &amp; on should not perform... I am in the same age group and don't feel to old to go!!! xxxxxx </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/is-inxs-too-old-to-tour-michaels-mother-speaks-out#post-68 Tue, 09 Feb 2010 05:06:01 +0000 cathy v 68@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>I don't think they are too old to tour either! I know alot of people enjoy their shows! But for me, I have no interest to see them without Michael. </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/michael-hutchence-tribute-album#post-67 Mon, 08 Feb 2010 17:39:45 +0000 Heather Hartzell 67@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>Ollie Olsen would also be a no brainer. I always hoped that MaxQ would do another record. The first one was brilliant. </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/michael-hutchence-tribute-album#post-66 Mon, 08 Feb 2010 06:46:41 +0000 cathy v 66@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>These are good choices Heather! I haven't come up with any more, but I was just thinking how I always had wished Michael would have done a cover of David Bowie's 'Heroes'. Awesome song, and I'm sure it would done it well! :) </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/is-inxs-too-old-to-tour-michaels-mother-speaks-out#post-64 Sun, 07 Feb 2010 18:28:55 +0000 3-sisters 64@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>And in addition to that: other bands keep on touring who are in their late 40's/early 50's. Like U2, the Cure, Duran Duran, A-ha. And let's not forget the Stones!! They all rock!</p> <p>Gerry </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/is-inxs-too-old-to-tour-michaels-mother-speaks-out#post-63 Sun, 07 Feb 2010 18:27:06 +0000 3-sisters 63@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>Well said Heather, couldn't have said it better myself ;-)</p> <p>Gerry </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/is-inxs-too-old-to-tour-michaels-mother-speaks-out#post-56 Sun, 07 Feb 2010 17:08:07 +0000 Heather Hartzell 56@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>I'm happy that Mrs. Glassop is happy about the 'Don't Change' campaign. Obviously, I disagree about the band being too old to tour. But, we're all entitled to our opinions. I do hope she buries the hatchet with Sir Bob before it's too late. It would appear that other members of the family don't have quite the difficulty maintaining a relationship with Tiger as she has had. Perhaps there is another side to the story. </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/michael-hutchence-tribute-album#post-54 Sun, 07 Feb 2010 16:42:55 +0000 Heather Hartzell 54@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>I'd pick that girl from BigPig. What's her name? She sang on that EccoHomo project of Troy's too. Also, Jenny Morris. Billy Gibbons should play on it since Michael seemed to admire him so. Also the girl from Divynls. I'm bad with names. Plus maybe Johnny Depp. He can sing and play quite well and he and Michael seemed to be rather good friends. I'm sure I could go on. Michael seemed to have so many talented friends. </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/michael-hutchence-tribute-album#post-53 Sun, 07 Feb 2010 05:59:36 +0000 cathy v 53@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>Those are good choices! I'd add Robert Smith too. That may seem odd, but I've got on old mtv clip where Michael talks about playing a festival with the Cure, and that they "Kick butt". I agree with him! :) </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/michael-hutchence-tribute-album#post-51 Sat, 06 Feb 2010 20:59:19 +0000 lovinghutch 51@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>You names the people I'd like to sing on it too !<br /> :) </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/michael-hutchence-tribute-album#post-49 Sat, 06 Feb 2010 06:48:11 +0000 Matt 49@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>If there was a Michael Hutchence tribute album in the future, that was a proper tribute to Michael. Which included singers who were his friends. And sung his solo songs and well as the INXS hits he wrote. Who would you like to see sing on it? I'll start the names off for you...</p> <p>Bono<br /> Nick Cave<br /> Simon Le Bon<br /> Kylie Minogue<br /> Belinda Carlisle<br /> David Bowie<br /> Mick Jagger </p> http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/topic/is-inxs-too-old-to-tour-michaels-mother-speaks-out#post-46 Sat, 06 Feb 2010 03:11:37 +0000 Matt 46@http://www.michaelhutchence.com.au/home/forum/ <p>Michael Hutchence's mother speaks out on the late stars 50th birthday</p> <p>By Grant Hodgson Jan 22, 2010, 10:35 GMT </p> <p>THE mother of INXS star Michael Hutchence has begged Sir Bob Geldof to be allowed to see her granddaughter one final time – on what would have been the late singer’s 50th birthday. </p> <p>Hutchence, who had a daughter, Tiger Lily, with Sir Bob’s ex-wife Paul Yates, died in 1997 in a suspected suicide. </p> <p>Paula died of a drug overdose three years later. </p> <p>His mother, Patricia Glossop, today said she had not seen Tiger Lily, now 13, “for years”. </p> <p>The teenager now lives with Sir Bob and his family in the UK. </p> <p>Patricia said she wanted to see Tiger Lily “at least one last time” to feel closer to Michael, whose death still “feels as though it were yesterday”. </p> <p>Patricia said she and her remaining children, Rhett and Tina, would be remembering Michael privately. </p> <p>She also said she “never heard” from any of his former INXS bandmates. </p> <p>And she was shocked to learn they were about to go on tour, saying they are now “too old”. </p> <p>Speaking from her home on Australia’s Gold Coast, Patricia said: “I miss Michael terribly. </p> <p>“His death is more than ten years ago but it seems like yesterday. </p> <p>“Time is a healer though and the pain isn’t as raw as it was. </p> <p>“What also helps is that I get plenty of fans, and girls, coming up to me and wishing me well and telling me how much they love Michael, and wanting to know more about him. </p> <p>“It really helps console me. I just wish it could have been otherwise and that he was still alive. </p> <p>“He was a fabulous performer. </p> <p>“He could hold people in the palm of his hand when he was on stage. </p> <p>“When I went out with him to restaurants the effect on people was incredible. </p> <p>“Girls were over the moon if he kissed them on the cheek.” </p> <p>Speaking about Tiger Lily, she said: “I haven’t seen her for years. </p> <p>“She has only been out here to Australia once since Michael died when Bob bought her out. </p> <p>“I don’t know how to contact her any more.” </p> <p>She added: “I think the situation is disgusting but that’s the type of man Bob is. </p> <p>“I actually heard he was sending her to boarding school but I don’t know how true that is. </p> <p>“Maybe she’s better off at a boarding school if she can’t come to Australia.” </p> <p>She added: “Of course it would help me if I see her. </p> <p>“More than anything, I want to see her one last time. </p> <p>“It’s hard enough missing Michael so much – but I have lost her, too. </p> <p>“She has biological family and I am her biological grandmother. </p> <p>“I don’t know why Sir Bob has created this situation. It’s hard to understand. </p> <p>“I won’t continue arguing with Sir Bob about this. I’m too tired to fight now.” </p> <p>She said she had accepted Michael did commit suicide by hanging himself in Sydney’s Ritz Carlton hotel but “there was a reason for it”. </p> <p>“I know he killed himself but there was a reason for it. </p> <p>“His daughter had been taken away from him,” she said. </p> <p>Patricia said her daughter, Tina, Michael’s step sister, now lives in America while his brother, Rhett, lives in Byron Bay, a couple of hours’ drive from her home. </p> <p>“It’s good to treat his birthday as a normal day,” she said. </p> <p>“Of course we’ll miss Michael and we’ll remember him in our own, private way.” </p> <p>She said she didn’t know that INXS were about to embark on a world tour, starting in Vancouver, Canada, for the Winter Olympics. </p> <p>“I never hear from them. They don’t keep in touch. </p> <p>“Good luck to them going on tour. </p> <p>“They’re probably a bit old to be going on the road though. </p> <p>“Being in there 50s is quite an age to be traveling the world performing.” </p> <p>She said she was also thrilled by a Facebook campaign to get Michael’s INXS song Don’t Change to number one around the world. </p> <p>“I hope it happens, I really do,” she said. </p> <p>Michael’s INXS bandmates today paid tribute to the singer by posting individual messages on the band’s website. </p> <p>Guitarist Kirk Pengilly, 51, wrote: “If he were alive today, he would have had the biggest and the best 50th birthday party. </p> <p>“Michael loved and embraced life in every direction. </p> <p>“So here’s to you mate. See you when I see you.” </p> <p><a href="http://www.monstersandcritics.com/people/news/article_1527501.php/Michael-Hutchenes-mother-speaks-out-on-the-late-stars-50th-birthday" rel="nofollow">http://www.monstersandcritics.com/people/news/article_1527501.php/Michael-Hutchenes-mother-speaks-out-on-the-late-stars-50th-birthday</a> </p>
