Yes,
I guess they can get a use by date no matter what the talent. It seems to be unpredictable.
I went to see Neil Diamond in Sydney, and was so disappointed, probably a bit unfairly. He has lost so much range in his voice he was practically just talking the lyrics. He was still professional and a showman though.
Went to see Hall and Oates the other night, and they were just great. Daryl Hall is a year older than me, and that's OLD, but you would not pick it. Some of their songs there, like Kiss, were better than the studio version.
Then I recall Elton John a few years ago here sounding really old and sick, but it turned out that he was, on that occasion. I think some of them just wear out more quickly.
Cheers
