THE TOUR
The tour was organized and promoted by Lee Gordon, a prominent Australian music promoter known for bringing international acts to Australia.
Chubby Checker and Bobby Rydell were both popular American musicians during the early 1960s and were among the leading figures in the rock and roll and pop music scenes at the time. They were famous for their energetic performances and hit songs that resonated with audiences worldwide.
Chubby Checker, in particular, is renowned for popularizing "The Twist," a dance style that became a worldwide sensation and a cultural phenomenon during the early 1960s. His rendition of the song "The Twist" reached number one on the charts in the United States and sparked a dance craze that swept the nation.
Bobby Rydell, on the other hand, was a talented singer, actor, and drummer who had a string of successful hits, including "Wild One" and "Volare," which made him a heartthrob for teenage audiences.
COLLECTABILITY
Tour programs are highly collectable and sought after for several reasons. Firstly, they provide a tangible memento of a specific concert or event, allowing fans to relive the experience and cherish the memories associated with it. Tour programs often feature exclusive content like behind-the-scenes photos, interviews, and detailed information about the artists and their performances. Additionally, they serve as a snapshot of a particular era in an artist's career, making them valuable to both music enthusiasts and historians. Whether you're a dedicated fan or a passionate collector, owning these programs offers a tangible connection to the music world and serves as a treasured piece of memorabilia.
Programs can also be framed together with other items we have on our website such as vinyl records, official stage guitar picks, autographs, backstage passes, concert tickets, drumsticks and photos and you can create a truly one-of-a-kind unique piece of memorabilia.
