[gentle music]
My dad gave me the best advice ever.
10 or 10,000 people.
[audience cheers and applauds]
Give ’em the same show.
Give ’em the best show you possibly can.
[Announcer] Give it up for Tim Goldrainer!
[audience cheers and applauds]
[Tim] I think I kind of knew what I wanted to do
at a very young age.
[camera flashes]
Just talking on the microphone was a rush.
My name’s Tim Goldrainer and this is The Goldie Show.
And I was talking to this young lady before the show.
She says, How long have you been doing this?
I said, A couple weeks.
I’m just kidding.
36 years of rock and roll.
[tape rewinds]
There’s Cincinnati’s fun feast from appetizer to dessert.
It’s gonna be big hit!

He is mesmerizing.

[Staff] Oh.
Your mom’s in love with me?
At Sanctuary Point.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
She, she, I told her you were coming here today.
She says, Come get me. Come get me.
Well let’s go pick her up.
Oh my God. She’s totally-

Yeah. You made her day.
Good to see ya.
Hey girls.
Keep those earplugs in.
I’m getting ready to start here in a little while.
[Staff] Oh, they’re not done yet though,
I’m sorry.
Oh, no worries.
They’re eating.
I remember my wife suggesting,
Maybe you should do something during the day.
You know, you should do some nursing homes.
Mr. Baverman.
How are you, sir?
Yes.
Nice to see you.
C’mon man, gimme a break.
I sing in a rock band.
I’m, I’m not ready for the seniors tour yet.
You are the Goldrainer guy?
Yeah, I’m the Goldrainer guy.
They call me Goldie, yeah.
Okay, cool.
Maybe we arm wrestle later, huh?
What time’s your show start?
1:45.
I don’t know,
it sounds just really depressing and kind of dark.
We’re used to like people going
[imitates crowd cheering]

Hi Mrs. Bossy.
Hi.

and I’m good friends with her daughter and her son.
Glen and Mary Kay.

Dementia set in.
[gentle music plays]
My mom had to go
be admitted
to the place that she actually worked at.
I was there a lot.
[gentle music continues]
And she would doze off, and then
I would just kind of bounce into a another person’s room.
Someone that I knew,
or someone that I would see there all the time,
and just sing a song.
[music swells]
And watch ’em just kind of melt.
And watch their expressions.
My whole perspective changed.
I said, I’m gonna go a hundred miles an hour with this.
I’m gonna go big.
Why? Why would, why would they not deserve it?
[music ends]
[electric guitar plays]
How y’all doing?
[crowd applauds]
I missed y’all.
Yeah. Is that too loud for you?
If it’s too loud, you’re too old, man.
[all laugh]
That turned into such a positive thing
that I wanted to do it at different places.
[upbeat music begins]
I went into a phone book.
Started calling people.
Gimme a shot.
Hey, we’ll try ya.

sometimes two times a day.

To live in a nursing home
when they’ve lived all their lives
in their homes, and were self-sufficient,
and took care of themselves,
and then to have somebody else take care of them is,
it’s gotta be a downer.

Paul Dixon.
But Paul Dixon. Paul, baby!
Yeah.
Inevitably, we’re all kind of heading
in that direction as we age.
I want to go in and give ’em
the best experience I possibly can.
[gentle music continues]
I just wanna make people happy, man.
Especially in this, in the senior world.
‘Cause they just really, really need it.
They need it so terribly bad.
[crowd cheers and applauds]
Thank you so much.
That was my show folks.
Merry Christmas and I don’t do it my way.
I do it my wife’s way.
Thank you very much.
God bless y’all.
Thank you.
Thank you, Jim. Thank you so much.
You just, you just do everything right.
I’m, oh gosh. Thank you.
I’m trying.
You were very, very entertaining.
That’s what it’s all about, man.
That’s what I’m here for.
It’s a fact of life.
Merry Christmas to you.

Thank you so much.
Here you go. Look over here and smile.
All right.

Peggy Crooks.
Peggy Crooks.
Happy birthday.
Thank you.

I used to do this sort of thing.
You used to do this kind of thing?
Yeah.
When?
Oh, 50 years-
Just a couple years ago, huh?
Well, yeah.
I wanna make ’em feel like they’re somewhere else.
Good I’m glad. Merry Christmas to you.
Second time.
Yeah, yeah. I’ll be here again.
You have a wonderful holiday, okay? Aw.
My nose is a little bit cold.
A little cold.
Merry Christmas.
Thank you so much.
Bring them back to a simpler time.
And forget the fact that they’re living in a nursing home.
I’m, I’m glad you finally smiled at the end of the show.
It took me a while to get you going, but that’s good.
You were smiling the whole time.
Judy, you were chair dancing like a freak over there.
I loved it.

Yeah. Gwen, you got it going on.
