    “Bee Gees” live in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, 29th May 2009

    April 2nd, 2009

    Not the real Bee Gees, but what is arguably the world’s top Bee Gees tribute band: The Australian Bee Gees Show.

    They will be performing at the charity dinner and concert of the Palliative Care Association of Kota Kinabalu (PCA) on 29th May 2009.

    It will take place at the Grand Ballroom of The Magellan Sutera, Kota Kinabalu.

    Before you scoff at tribute bands, check out their live videos first at youtube. People are gushing that they are “closest thing on earth to the real Bee Gees”. They have played to full houses worldwide.

    Not only do they look like the Bee Gees, they even have the same mannerisms, and singing voices stunningly close to the original.

    Wayne Hosking as Maurice Gibb, David Scott as Robin Gibb and Michael Clift as Barry Gibb:

    Plus, they have been around for more than 10 years, have performed in 40 countries to more than 1 million people and have sung “Words” in 16 different languages.

    Check out this video of them performing “Stayin’ Alive”, live:

    The Original Bee Gees might never perform in Sabah, but at least they are here in spirit.

    Sounds good, as long as they do not charge exorbitant prices for being wannabes.

    1. After the Peter Cetera disappointment, this should “cure” that, at least a little.

    2. Re Papier Mache as opening act: perhaps you can make use of your contacts to turn that into reality?!

    The correct people to contact would be the organisers, not the performers. According to DE’s report, it’s organised by Sutera Harbour Resort and sponsors, including Winecellars and Carlsberg. Since I’m sure you’re very close to these people perhaps you can work it out with them.
