Een fantastische avond in Carré. De meester op het podium die je van minuut tot minuut op een zeer verschillende manier van muzikaliteit en tekst weet te vermaken. Ook het totale gezelschap op het podium verdient een dikke pluim. Zijn vrouw, kinderen en kleinkind complementeren de avond met zang en dans. Je gelooft niet dat de hoofdgast deze avond tachtig wordt. Een spetterend optreden!!!!
