Rod Stewart Sings 'Maggie May' With a Twist: Rock Star's Vegas Revelry!
ROD STEWART UNLEASHES WILD SIDE IN LAS VEGAS: SINGER-SONGWRITER CELEBRATES WHISKY BRAND'S BIRTHDAY WITH A NIGHT TO REMEMBER
In a night that will go down in history, Sir Rod Stewart brought the house down with his outrageous antics at Caspian's Rock & Roe in Las Vegas on Saturday. The 80-year-old rock legend celebrated the second anniversary of his Wolfie's Whisky brand in style, serving up a wild and unforgettable performance that left fans and friends alike in stitches.
As he took to the stage, Rod was in top form, belting out hits like "Maggie May," "Have I Told You Lately," and "Ooh LaLa" with his signature swagger. But it was when he started messing around with the lyrics that things got really interesting. Altering the words to classic hits like "Maggie May" and "Have I Told You Lately," Rod sang about showing off his, ahem, assets to Maggie, and declared himself a man who'd rather stick a guitar up his bum than be 21.
The crowd went wild as Rod dueted with Vegas act RadioXx on "Have I Told You Lately." When lead singer Toby Rand crooned "Have I Told You Lately I Love You," Rod shot back with a cheeky smile, "No you haven't!" The playful banter between the two only added to the electric atmosphere in the room.
But Rod's wild and crazy antics didn't stop there. He dipped his nose into a special Wolfie's bottle-shaped cake, proclaiming it to be one of the best things he'd ever tasted. And when asked about the whisky that inspired the celebration, he simply grinned mischievously and said, "God Bless You Everybody. Thank you!"
As the night wore on, Rod showed no signs of slowing down. He danced to Radio Xx's covers of Eminem's "Without," Tears For Fears' "Everybody Wants To Rule The World," and even a rock version of The Backstreet Boys' "I Want It That Way." And when his own set came to an end, he still managed to boogie along to a cover of Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" on his way out.
The whisky brand that started it all – Wolfie's Whisky – has been making waves since its launch in 2023. Co-founded by Rod and business partner Duncan Frew, the 40% ABV blended Scottish distilled whisky is already a hit with fans and critics alike. And judging from last night's antics, it's clear that Rod's got a serious passion for his creation.
But what really sets this whisky apart is its inspiration – each cocktail is named after one of Rod's greatest hits. From the sweet-and-tangy "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy" to the bold, bittersweet "Forever Young," every sip is a taste of rock 'n' roll history.
As guests at Caspian's Rock & Roe sipped on Wolfie's Whisky cocktails and sang along to Rod's hits, one thing was clear: this whisky is more than just a drink – it's an experience. And with Rod Stewart at the helm, you can bet your bottom dollar that every time you crack open a bottle of Wolfie's, you'll be in for a wild ride.
Thescholarlynote.com caught up with some of the lucky fans who got to experience last night's shenanigans firsthand. "If anyone doubted that Rod Stewart is a bona fide rock star," one guest said, "then there was their proof. He was absolutely great form, enjoying the music, his friends and band mates... He really let his hair down as we saw on stage."
Another fan gushed, "Rod seemed so relaxed and it was hilarious when he changed the words to his songs on stage. He has always made a point of saying he is one of the people and he showed it Caspian's last night. He was on party night with friends and being famous didn't stop him."
And as for Rod himself? Well, let's just say that this whisky-wielding rock legend still knows how to throw a party like no other.
With his ongoing One Last Time tour worldwide, which he has said is not a farewell to road work but a swan song for his rock hits, Rod Stewart shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. And with Wolfie's Whisky as the perfect accompaniment to his wild and crazy performances, you can bet that this whisky will be around for a long, long time.
As Rod himself put it, "Next year will mark 15 years at The Colosseum and I still get terribly excited each time I return. I love this theatre... So come along and we'll forget the world outside for a couple of hours at The Encore shows!"
