Bill Haley Jr and Comets promise night of old fashioned rock n roll <\/p>\n
Bill Haley and the Comets are rock n roll legends - they were there at the birth of rock n roll and changed the face of music forever. <\/p>\n
And now Bill Haleys son Bill Haley Jr, and his five-piece band, are coming to Rotoruas Energy Events Centre for a rock n roll celebration on Saturday 29 March. <\/p>\n
They will be playing all the 50s rockers classics, including Rock Around The Clock; See You Later Alligator; Shake, Rattle & Roll; Chantilly Lace; Johnny B Good; That's Alright Mama; Kansas City and Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On. <\/p>\n
Energy Events Centre operations manager, Joelene Elliott, says the band will be bringing the songs that many Kiwis grew up with and which earned Bill Haley and the Comets a place in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. <\/p>\n
But Ms Elliot says people can expect much more than just a regular concert. She says it promises to be a fun-filled 50s rock n roll party. <\/p>\n
For one amazing night, locals will be transported back to the days of Richie and the Fonz, with hot rods and Harleys, big swinging dresses and gum-chewing waitresses. <\/p>\n
In keeping with an American diner theme, concert-goers will have the option of front-of-stage dining with a selection of American favourites on the menu including pre-ordered meals like T-bone steaks, and other options available on the night like barbecue ribs, burgers, hot dogs, shakes and Pepsi, or something stronger. Therell also a dance floor and the chance to win prizes. <\/p>\n
Bill Haley Jr and the Comets are playing two solid hours of classic rock and roll, so were encouraging people to get into the spirit by dressing in 50s get-up. Put on your glad rags and dancing gear cause theres going to be a whole lot of shakin going on. <\/p>\n
