This 2-hour concert is a commemoration of an era and transcends emotions through an anthemic set list from Creedence Clearwater Revival, Aretha Franklin, Jimi Hendrix, The Rolling Stones, James Brown, Three Dog Night, Tina Turner, The Animals, Janis Joplin, The Doors and so much more.
Musical Director and guitarist Simon Gardner shares the stage with Shaleena Bain, Chris Herden, Tommy Hynes and Terry Million and says: โThe rock music created during the Vietnam War period was ground-breaking in that it reflected immense unrest as well as the greatest powers of all โ peace and love. I absolutely love playing these songs and view this show as an opportunity to honour and pay tribute to those involved.โ
