He Wears It Well

Smoky-voiced Stewart brings his “Rockin' in the Round” tour to Philly

By Cheryl McEvoy

More than 40 years in the business hasn't slowed Grammy Award winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Rod Stewart. In fact, with his usual passion and high energy, Stewart seems to be living his mantra: forever young. Following the release of his latest album, Still the Same ... Great Rock Classics of Our Time, Stewart is raising arena roofs once again. The singer/songwriter kicked off his latest tour earlier this month, reviving old favorites and modernizing rock classics with his trademark raspy-yet-sultry voice. And if you think he's sexy, you'll be sure to love Stewart's new spin on the concert experience — literally: A revolving stage promises to showcase every angle (of performance, that is). January 31st, 8 p.m. Wachovia Center, 3601 South Broad Street. Tickets $53 to $125; call 800-298-4200 or purchase online.
