Have You Wondered If Tom Sings In The Bathroom? Question Answered. Tom In Abu Dabi
Thursday, March 18th, 2010First, a rather snidely announced appearance in Abu Dabi from Maktoob Business.: ABU DHABI – Ageing pop legend Tom Jones will perform in Abu Dhabi next month, becoming the latest in a long list of artists to come to the UAE capital, Maktoob News has learnt.
The concert is being organised by Flash Entertainment, the state-owned promoter responsible for bringing the likes of Rihanna, Justin Timberlake, Shakira and Beyonce to Abu Dhabi.
A spokeswoman for Flash Entertainment confirmed Jones will perform on April 16, but would not give further details. She said an official announcement will be made in the coming days.
The 69-year-old Welsh artist has sold over 100 million records worldwide. In his prime Jones was a regular on the Las Vegas Strip and renowned for his exuberant live act and tight trousers.
Jones’s early hits included It’s Not Unusual and What’s New Pussycat, while later ones included Mama Told Me Not to Come and Sex Bomb.
Finally! This preview of Tom’s appearance in Manila is an interview in which more unusual questions are asked.
This is Tom Jones! (It’s not unusual, is it?)

Sir Thomas Jones Woodward has performed in numerous concerts and sold more than 100 million records
and he’s not, so to speak, resting on his laurels.
“I love to make people happy,” he said during a 20-minute exclusive phone interview with Funfare (he was calling from Australia which is part of his Asian concert tour that includes the Philippines on March 28 at the Araneta Coliseum), “and I’m doing it for as long as I can.”
After the 1965 song It’s Not Unusual catapulted him to fame (and fortune), Tom Jones hosted the show This is Tom Jones which was telecast in both the US and UK. It has been great history since then.
As Jones would want it during his concerts, you can read the following interview to the tune of any Tom Jones hit and, why not, dance to it…Sexbomb, maybe?
Do you remember the last time you were in Manila? “Oh, it was in the ’80s. I remember we did a tour. That was a long time ago.”
A lot of changes have happened to the country since then. “Yeah, I understand. I’m looking forward to seeing all the changes because it has been so long. I’m curious what these changes are. I’m very inquisitive about seeing for myself how it is now.”
