WINTER DANCE PARTY - BUDDY HOLLY & FRIENDShttps://web.ovationtix.com/trs/pr/1256252
Stirring Tributes to Buddy Holly & Friends on the Anniversary of ‘The Day The Music Died’
Travel back in time with Buddy Holly & Friends! This concert is a modern revival of the original WINTER DANCE PARTY tour that took place over 60 years ago, plus so much more!
On February 2nd, 1959, Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, The Big Bopper, and Dion and The Belmonts performed together for the very last time. The ‘Winter Dance Party’ tour was thrilling teenagers across the Midwest, a scheduled 24-city tour, headlined by Holly and his band, The Crickets. The tour would end in disaster on February 3rd, 1959, when all three would die in their charter plane crash on the way to the tour’s next stop. Remembered ever since as ‘The Day the Music Died’, these legends had already made their mark in music history. On the eve of its anniversary, this show relives the concert experience and tells the story of the devastating loss through the eyes of Dion, who was unable to join the others as there wasn’t enough room on the plane; an incredible story and music event!
This show brings back the best hits of the original Winter Dance Party line up and also includes songs by other stars of the era, including FATS DOMINO, ROY ORBISON, BILL HALEY, and PAUL ANKA. Hits by BIG MAMA THORNTON, LESLEY GORE, THE RONETTES, AND THE SHIRELLES are featured in special tribute moments to the iconic female artists of the era. Even The King himself, ELVIS will make an appearance! For those who remember, this show will be a trip down memory lane, while introducing these legends to the next generation, telling their story and recreating the music that has become so cherished over the decades!
