There are lots of performers popular in the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s that still tour. Who are the ones worth seeing?
I saw Jeff Lynne on his last tour a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it.

Iron Maiden is incredible live.
Night Ranger is surprisingly good too.

Sounds EXACTLY the same and has a great backing band.

I came to post this. It's uncanny how good he still is.

Rush except the vocals. Yikes. Geddy can sing but that voice is gone. And you can tell he is struggling. A struggling voice is not a nice voice to listen to. New tour hasn't started yet, but I really would hope they would get a couple of ghost singers and put them under the stage or something to help him out. Other than that, I saw them on some show recently and playing wise, it sounded good. New drummer girl was fine.

Yes, they were great last year.
Judas Priest still has it live.
Zebra still rocks.

My singer went to see them in Oxford, AL (wow) a couple of weeks back. She sent a little video from her phone. Billy sounded exactly like off the album singing.
If it sounds like the album, it ain't live. Makes me wonder about the rest of it.

Little Feat. Saw them open for Tedeschi Trucks last year in Charlotte and those guys still had some gas left in the tank. A good showing by them

I didn't see or even pay much attention to Bruce Hornsby back in the day, but I was surprised how much I enjoyed his shortened performance at a recent festival. He got up from the piano and picked up a dulcimer, and it got even better. I would see again.
Ditto on Lynne.

I've seen in the past couple of years-not necessarily all vocalists.
All are well past 60 years of age:
Gino Vanelli
Ed Kuepper
Al DiMeola
The Damned (Dave Vanian is 69 and sounds awesome and Captain Sensible is 72 and still shreds)
Terry Chambers (XTC drummer)
Rick Wakeman (solo)
Johnny Marr (only 62!)
Beat (Adrian Belew, Tony Levin over 70)
Hoping that Guess Who in August still rocks..
