keith1948 Posted January 3, 2021 Report Share Posted January 3, 2021 We saw Gerry and the Pacemakers in their later touring years. They were very good but thought that the name 'Pacemakers' wasn't the best name for the old rockers. One of them came on stage on crutches and had to sit down. I guess none of them ever thought they would still be playing into their old age. Very sad to hear that Gerry departed this earth though. Will have to get their 45's out to play again.
