Short show! Why on earth doesn't he pace himself by including more blues and country songs?

[Rocky]

Not a country song or ballad amongst them, and few hits. Considering this show was in the States where he had dozens of huge country #1 and top ten hits, I don't get it. Same old songs he has sung on stage for past 1/4 century, and no material recorded in the last 40 years. Most are old Sun songs from the 50s and early 60s. Some of this material does not even suit an 81 year old man performing it. His concert song list is now quite predictable.

No, he did not.

[wolfgangguhl]

He played 32 minutes.

Good question. I also noticed he is rushing out song after song these days. The show has become increasingly hectic. The playing/singing itself is ok for someone his age.

from Los Angeles Daily News

The highlight was easily Jerry Lee Lewis, the 81-year-old fiery rock ‘n’ roll pioneer who played to the Palomino tent at his Stagecoach debut. After being brought to the stage in a wheelchair, Lewis walked out with assistants flanking him. Wearing a white suit, Lewis sat down behind the glossy black Yamaha piano and played with verve. Early in the set, if you closed your eyes, you wouldn’t have thought he showed his age at all. And at the end of “Great Balls of Fire,” Lewis even did a leg kick.

The only disappointment was that he ended his set more than 20 minutes earlier than scheduled with a finale of “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On.” As he stood up from the piano, he shooed away his assistants and with the aid of a cane, walked off the stage on his own while the crowd cheered, and then started chanting “Jerry! Jerry!” It was like an episode of “The Jerry Springer Show” without any punches being thrown.
