    Dreamboats and petticoatsThe lovely people at The Gaiety Theatre have given me two tickets for one lucky reader to Dreamboats and Petticoats on August 30th in The Gaiety Theatre Dublin.

    The competition will run until Friday August 26th at 3pm and judges decision is final. All you have to do is leave a comment below telling me what your favourite song is from the late 50s/early sixties and go on like my Facebook page.

    The musical tells the story of two musicians trying to win a National Song Competition but it seems the ladies make the pair get a little sidetracked. It features songs from Roy Orbison, The Shadows, Eddie Cochran, Billy Fury, Chuck Berry and many more, including Let’s Dance, To Know Him Is To Love Him, Shaking All Over, Bobby’s Girl, Little Town Flirt , Only Sixteen, Sleepwalk, Runaround Sue, Happy Birthday Sweet 16, What A Wonderful World, Let’s Twist Again, Let It Be Me and many more hits from music’s golden era!

    Bon Chance!
