in Live,News

Wollongong’s WIN Entertainment Centre played host to one of the largest touring events to play Australia in recent years, Solid Gold Live.

The Solid Gold Live show brought 10 of Australia’s biggest acts spaced across the last 40 years together under one roof for a concentrated dose of the history of Australian music in one three hour lesson.

Sean Kelly performed his hits from Models, Steve Kilbey delivered The Church and original line-ups for The Chantoozies, Moving Pictures, Wa Wa Nee and Pseudo Echo and Wa Wa Nee along with Richard Clapton performing his three biggest hits and Todd Hunter keeping the flame of Dragon burning gave Wollongong a night of songs that collectively added up to more hits than a Stones show.
