Peter Frampton was on Oprah today
Edited on Thu Nov-04-10 11:14 PM by Archae
He looks FAR older than I remember him, and he has hearing aids.

But he still has a good voice and sings well.

5. Peter Frampton is aging, but still has 'street cred.'
On the other hand, look up Val Kilmer or Adam Ant. I didn't even recognize them from my memories of their younger selves.

6. does he have hearing aids or were they monitors?
Most artists nowadays have earbud monitors, it makes it easier to get a personal mix to listen to what's going on. HIs guitar louder, or bass, drums mix whatever.

8. Maybe.
They looked like hearing aids to me.

Not sure.

9. He did a sold out show in a stadium here early this year - he was great!
He's a fine guitarist,and has writen a few good songs. He is not as old as some, he just doesn't color his hair or wear a wig...he is all of 60 years old!!!
He played with Frampton's Camel, Humble Pie, and many other groups since, in cluding Ring Starr's All Starr Band as well as many recordings and tours on his own.

11. Well he SAID there's ringing in his ears
and no one to relate to 'cept the sea. Not sure if hearing aids will help with the latter, though.

13. I know he can make his guitar talk, but can he make Oprah shut up?
