THE PIONEERS OF THE AUSTRALIAN ROCK âNâ ROLL ERA HAVE JOINED TOGETHER IN CONCERT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 60 YEARS!
âTHE GOOD OLD DAYS OF ROCK âNâ ROLLâ is an exciting and memory riddled show presented by Bob McKinnon. From television shows including Johnny OâKeefeâs âSIX OâCLOCK ROCKâ and Brian Hendersonâs âBANDSTANDâ, so many talented performers and recording stars were born. This is not a tribute concert ⌠this is the real deal.
In âTHE GOOD OLD DAYS OF ROCK âNâ ROLLâ , audiences will re-live all the FABULOUS ORIGINAL HITS from the HITMAKERS themselves â LITTLE PATTIE, DIGGER REVELL, JADE HURLEY, DINAH LEE and LUCKY STARR.
LITTLE PATTIE debut single âHeâs My Blonde Headed, Stompie Wompie, Real Gone Surfer Boyâ / âStompinâ which used the surf music style and a dance style craze that was known as âThe Stompâ. It was released in November 1963 when she was aged 14, and reached No. 2 on the Sydney music charts. Further hits included âWeâre Gonna Have a Party Tonightâ (#18 in March 1965), âPushinâ a Good Thing Too Farâ (#28 in March 1965) and âDance Puppet Danceâ (#9 in October 1965).
DINAH LEE (the ONE AND ONLY Queen of the MODS) is a New Zealand born SUPERSTAR with her International Number One Hits âDonât You Know Yockomoâ, âReet Petiteâ and âDo the Blue Beatâ and is acknowledged as New Zealandâs greatest musical import to Australia.
JADE HURLEY OAM dubbed by Johnny OâKeefe as âAustraliaâs King of Country Rockâ is Australiaâs very own âPiano Manâ with the unique ârecordâ that every record he has released, has achieved GOLD, PLATINUM or DOUBLE PLATINUM status in both Australia and New Zealand.
LUCKY STARR is an Australian pioneer rock and roll, pop and country music singer, guitarist and television presenter. His most popular single, âIâve been everywhereâ, appeared in early 1962 and peaked at number one. During the late 1960s Lucky performed as a country musician taking his travelling show around the Australian Bush. He was inducted into the Australian Country Music Hall of Fame.
DIGGER REVELL was credited with pioneering Australian Rock ânâ Roll in Australia. He has performed with some of the greats, including Chubby Checker, Bobby Rydell and Johnny OâKeefe. He is still performing to this day.
This WONDERFUL REVIEW OF MEMORIES from those days is the âcream of the cropâ who has survived over 70 years of continuous performing and who, between them, have recorded dozens of hits which they will perform as only each performer can, taking every member of the audience back in time to where it all started.
In the âGOOD OLD DAYS OF ROCK âNâ ROLLâ, you will re-live all the FABULOUS ORIGINAL HITS from the HIT MAKERS themselves LITTLE PATTIE, DIGGER REVELL, JADE HURLEY, DINAH LEE and LUCKY STARR.
