It’s been 52 years since The Rolling Stones sizzled at Kooyong Tennis Centre during a matinee performance on their infamous ‘Exile On Main Street’ World Tour in 1973.
To honour this landmark Melbourne concert The Corner Hotel will host a one-off celebration of the so-called ‘Temperature Rising’ Stone’s Kooyong show from 12.30pm on Sunday 27 July.
A track-for-track live tribute will be performed by specifically created local all-star act THE MONKEY MEN, featuring Tim Rogers (You Am I) on lead vocals, Andre Warhurst (Rare Birds), Davey Lane (You Am I) & Stephen Hadley (Tex Perkins) on guitars, Matthew Cotter (Even) on drums, Bruce Haymes (former Renee Geyer) on keys, Jack Howard (ex-Hunters & Collectors) & Ben Marsland on horns and Eliza & Talei Wolfgramm on backing vocals.
The Tamworth Tornado Ezra Lee is the special support. Max Crawdaddy will DJ and James ‘The Hound Dog’ Young will MC.
“There’s a reason why we been doing this show annually since 2013, because people froth it.”
James Young offers, “All I can say is check out the Set List and see you at The Corner for this historic event…
