Australia’s best big band drummer, John Morrison and renowned jazz singer Jacki Cooper bring their humour and swinging sounds to Bond University’s 2012 Live at Bond free music series finale.
See the swing dancers from Gotta Swing, a vintage surfboard display from Surf World Gold Coast, local historical images from Gold Coast City Council’s Local Studies Library, and some classic cars!
