Winter Dance Party
Chester Fritz Auditorium
February 25, 2007
The Winter Dance Party is a live, authentic re-creation of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper?s final tour. Each live concert performance includes over two hours of unbridled, high voltage entertainment featuring all their hit songs of the 50?s era: That?ll Be The Day, Peggy Sue, Oh, Boy, Rave on, La Bamba, Chantilly Lace, and many, many more.
In January of 1959 Buddy Holly, Dion and the Belmonts, Ritchie Valens, and the Big Bopper set out on a twenty-four day tour of the mid-western United States. Making the closely booked appearances by bus this tour was torture for the its performers. Several degrees below zero, and a bus with a broken heating system, caused many to receive frostbite. This infamous tour is known as "The Winter Dance Party."
