Jesse Garon
The Magnet Pub on Dewsbury Road in Wakefield has a new landlord, Graham, who is staging live entertainment on Saturday nights. This week it was Elvis and Johnny cash tribute singer, Jesse Garon; this is quite a change from bands but I’m sure Graham will book bands in the future too. Jesse looked very smart in a black suit and shirt. Jesse sang in the set we saw, ‘Heartbreak Hotel’, ‘Hound Dog’, ’The Wonder Of You’, ‘G.I. Blues’, 'Did You Ever', ‘A Boy Named Sue’ and ‘San Quentin'. There were songs by Billy Fury, Gene Pitney, Buddy Holly and the Monkees. A very good performance from Jesse Garon.
