Bill Haley, Jr. & The Comets Set for Suncoast Showroom, 5/19

Recreating the music, feel and excitement of the birth of rock 'n' roll, Bill Haley, Jr. & The Comets will perform at the Suncoast Showroom May 19 and 20.

Reviving the look and sound made famous by his father -- Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame member Bill Haley -- Bill Haley, Jr. recaptures the heyday and carries on the tradition his father started in the 1950s.
