The Hon. Kate Jones, MP Minister for Tourism, Major Events and Small Business
Welcome to Cooly Rocks On, another great Gold Coast experience on Queensland’s vibrant events calendar. Queensland celebrates the best live events in the best destinations and Cooly Rocks On is an iconic experience for visitors. Regional events just like this play an important role in growing tourism, supporting regional jobs, as well as generating a sense of community pride. The Palaszczuk Government, through Tourism and Events Queensland is proud to support events like this in an effort to showcase Queensland’s destinations. I would like to congratulate the event organisers, volunteers, and local community for delivering this year’s event – your commitment is instrumental in ensuring its success.
As Mayor of the City of Gold Coast, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the Cooly Rocks On festival for 2015! This year, over 100,000 people are expected to take a trip down memory lane to attend this 1950s and 1960s themed nostalgia festival. This festival is one of the Gold Coast’s fastest growing events, spanning across two fantastic weeks. Whether it’s the retro markets, rock ‘n’ roll entertainment, vintage food or classic cars, Cooly Rocks On has something to suit everyone. So grab the family and swing on down to Cooly Rocks On – it’s sure to be the festival’s best year yet!
Peter Doggett CEO Connecting Southern Gold Coast
Tom Tate e City of Gold Coast th of r yo Ma
A special welcome to the Southern Gold Coast – hub of festivals and events! Cooly Rocks On is a wonderful experience – it’s Australia’s largest nostalgia festival of the 50’s and 60’s, offering a mix of rock-n-roll, rockabilly and swing, and dancing. With over 1,300 hot rod, custom built and classic cars on display, there is a mix to suit all interests. Please explore our region – the iconic beaches, our adjacent Hinterland, the many delightful local cafes and our variety of restaurants. Above all, happy days and enjoy the Festival!
A very warm welcome to everyone participating in Cooly Rocks On in our beautiful Tweed Shire and Gold Coast districts. Cooly Rocks On is a wonderful example of cross border collaboration between Tweed Shire and Gold Coast City councils. It’s also a great opportunity to explore our stunning Tweed Coast, charming rural villages, world heritage parks, and Tweed Regional Gallery, one of Australia’s leading regional galleries and home to the world-class Margaret Olley Art Centre. There’s a wealth of information about all our attractions at the Visitor Centre at Jack Evans Boat Harbour, so do drop in.

Rob Smith General Manager, Twin Towns Services Club

SI CRANSTOUN
To book for Si Cranstoun, Billy Washington’s DRIFTERS and all Cooly Rocks On shows, go to www.coolyrockson.com
performing live Thursday 4, Saturday 6 & Monday 8 June in the Cooly Rocks On marquee. In 2012, Cooly Rocks On introduced London rockabilly sensation Si Cranstoun to Australia. In 2013 he returned, and Cooly Rocks On fans welcomed him with open arms. In 2015, this uber cool UK underground rocker is back, bringing his trademark high octane dance style and a scintillating voice that resonates the golden era of ‘50s rock’n’roll. Si is young, fresh, and he does rockabilly in the same vein as legends like Jackie Wilson. He has built a formidable reputation throughout Europe and America as one of the most exciting entertainers on the rockabilly circuit in decades. His age and energy bring a whole new dimension to rock’n’roll and to Cooly Rocks On as we know it. Word on the streets is ‘Book early or you will miss out!’

The more Chad continued to build, the more people began to take notice of his obvious skill and attention to detail. Over the years, Adams Hot Rod Shop has received numerous national awards and Cooly Rocks On welcomes him downunder as a special guest at this year’s festival. Dion Willcox owns Queensland hot rod shop Kustom Shop and is a regular visitor to Chad’s
shop in Calhoun. Together, they have produced some monumental machines. The two recently collaborated on a 1932 Ford Roadster which has been snatching up medals left, right and centre. This informal get-together is a must for car enthusiasts.

Hokey Pokey time! When you’re out and about at Cooly Rocks On, keep your ear out for some old-fashioned fun from years gone by. Hokey pokey, also known as the ‘hand jive’, was an integral part of dance history on the Southern Gold Coast, initiated by Doug Roughton, the man responsible for Claude Carnell’s ‘It's Hot in Brisbane but it's Cool in Gatta’ song. Doug was the iconic host throughout the ‘50s for the hundreds of tourists who flocked to Greenmount Beach to congregate and dance on the beaches to tunes from Glenn Miller, Bing Crosby, Louis Armstrong and Tommy Dorsey. Doug was the ultimate ‘ice-breaker’ and introduced many locals and holiday-makers 24 | Cooly Rocks On 2015
to their spouses, single-handedly building Coolangatta’s reputation as the Romance Capital of Australia. Thanks to sponsor, Ahrens Accounting and Business Consultants at Tweed, the hokey pokey will be popping up around town when you least expect it in the ultimate dance tribute to Doug, who passed away in 2012 at the age of 90. Look out for Baskin & Robbins who will be giving away Hokey Pokey ice-cream. We can’t tell you where or when because that would spoil the fun.
Start practising your hand jive.

ROCK THE COOLY
THEN ROLL THROUGH THE TWEED
When you’re done rocking the ‘Cooly’ keep on rolling down the open road to explore the natural beauty of the Tweed and all it has to offer. Discover a timeless rhythm as you wind through the Tweed Valley, nestled in the ancient remains of the largest volcanic caldera in the southern hemisphere. Or follow the tune of the Tweed River as it draws you into the sights and sounds of a World Heritage national park. Along the way drop into local galleries, shift gears over lunch in a rustic pub or steer into the roadside shops and sample exotic fruits or a batch of home baked scones. It won’t take long before you’re picking up that country hospitality vibe. Of course, if you’re looking for something more breezy, just keep hugging the coastal road and enjoy one of the world’s most spectacular ocean vistas along the Tweed Coast. If you’re coming to “Cooly” to rock make plans to keep on rolling by checking out the sights, sounds, tastes and attractions of the Tweed.

And you’d be barking mad to miss it! Poodles, schnoodles, foodles, labradoodles and cavoodles will hit he dogwalk for the Poodle Oodle Parade as they take the stage to perform tricks for the Cooly Rocks on fans. The event isn’t without its controversy. In previous years a number of pooch imposters posing as poodles entered the parade leaving the poodle owners with a bone to pick. To avoid pouting pugs and disgruntled dachshunds, judges have included an open category for ‘Rock’n’Roll dogs’ to welcome all breeds of our pedigree chums. Many of the regular canine contestants have become natural paw-formers, enjoying the attention of the crowd. Now it’s time for the young pups to teach these old dogs some new tricks. Prizes will be awarded in a number of categories including ‘Waggiest Tail’, ‘Owner and Pooch Lookalike’ and ‘Best Rock’n’Roll Dog’. 38 | Cooly Rocks On 2015

FIVE big years and goin
When the curtain closed on Wintersun at Coolangatta and Tweed in June 2010, it marked the end of an era for the much-loved festival, which commenced in 1978. As news broke that Wintersun was heading south, the public response to its departure was overwhelming. More than 250 local business people, traders, members of the Chambers of Commerce and Connecting Southern Gold Coast attended the first public meeting to determine whether a replacement festival could be created in the wake of Wintersun. The group unanimously pledged their support to ensure the massive influx of people into town, and tens of millions of tourism dollars, continued to roll into the local economy.
At the end of it all, hundreds of people indicated they loved the name ‘Cooly Rocks On’, and the rest is history. Since day one, the Festival Management Committee has been genuinely appreciative and excited by the enthusiasm and support expressed by those who have made Cooly Rocks On such a special event – its fans. People from around Australia and overseas, many of whom make an annual pilgrimage to the twin towns, continue to dance, celebrate the great music and fashions of the era, share their love of classic cars, and have some good, old-fashioned fun.
Cooly would rock on regardless, and it did! Cooly Rocks On became an interim name for the new festival until a new name could be determined.
Without the support of Connecting Southern Gold Coast, major sponsors from Queensland and New South Wales, local businesses, accommodation houses and traders, the festival would not be what it is today.
A competition was held to name the festival. Over 2,300 rockers, dancers, car enthusiasts and nostalgia fans entered, adding some creative new names to the mix.
Five years down the track, Cooly Rocks On has truly earned its stripes and the Committee hopes you continue to be a part of this fantastic event for many years to come.
