GRANDMA PERFORMS “HOLLYWOOD” WITH THIN LIZZY
Kind of a strange one for TheProudParents.com, but it warmed our hearts so we wanted to share.
In 1982, a woman named May Booker sent a letter to the BBC saying that she loved Thin Lizzy, and wanted to play with them live. Because Thin Lizzy frontman Phil Lynott was raised by his own grandmother, he allowed Booker to play backing synths on the band’s performance of “Hollywood”, live on BBC. The performance was pre-recorded, but Booker looks incredibly happy fake-rocking the shit out of a crowd.
