Totally agree re:Tommy Steele.
I too hope it works out, but the logistics do make for an interesting mix.
Although on this site, Cliff is new to some, he does have a fiercely loyal, diverse fan base in the USA too.
I can see them vying for tickets (as too: Tom Jones fans) against people desperate to see Moz.
The bit that is interesting is, obviously, when Tom and Cliff leave (both who's regular audience normally have seats and couldn't cope with noise let alone physical enthusiasm at front of stage - a hand clapping, shoulder shaking event is not awaiting them when they see Miss Young!).
I can't see lots of more mature fans of said 'Sirs' hanging around to watch Morrissey.
Open minded or not, I would expect it to be a bit anti-climatic for a devout Cliff or Tom fan.
How the potential exodus of a section of the audience will go down with Moz is possibly well worth a ticket in itself...
I can see the novelty and attraction of Cliff playing a rare Stateside one-off and Tom using it as publicity for a soon to be released new album, but the mix of people at the bar would be strange to say the least.
Time will tell...
