TBH I'm a bit surprised to know he was still around, I had the oportunity to see him performing, almost on my face, about 12 years ago, I found it incredible how well he moved considering how aged his face was.

Amazing man.

Was he old?

Isababel · 24/09/2007 12:53

Not old, no... ancient!

Isababel · 24/09/2007 12:55

Have just checked... he was only 84! he looked far older than that when I saw him long time ago.
