Wow! Didn't realize he was as old as he was at the last performance he did at Ravinia Festival in Highland Park Illinois! It was his 40th appearance at Ravinia, and his shows were always sold out! He used to do 2 nights in a row, but the last few years he appeared there it was just one show. I live near Ravinia so I am used to altering my driving routes due to all the traffic jams in late afternoon when popular events are happening.
He lived a good long life and performed very close to the end, good for him!! Nice guy.
RIP Tony, RIP.

The thing I admire most about Tony is that I wish Iād had a chance to know GaGa too. Got their album!

I remember him most for his appearances with Billy Joel on several occasions, particularly in NewYork. He will most certainly be missed!!!
