We loved him, we laughed with him in the 70s sitcom SHA NA NA and we're still singing his hit songs from Grease, 'At The Hop' and 'Born To Hand Jive' ... and he's still partying hard!!
The unstoppable "Bowzer" (aka Jon Bauman) has raised a lot of eyebrows in the entertainment industry and now he's raising some Kiwi sweat with his two-hour knock-out show, touring Auckland to Invercargill, October-November.
Bowzer's Rock n' Roll Party is a classic American show, featuring a fully international cast with Rocky & The Rollers from America opening the show, followed by Bowzer & The Stingrays.
