Jan. 29, 1965: The Stones appear at Australian TV show Big Beat ‘65, with Roy Orbison as host, performing 4 songs: Walking The Dog/ Heart Of Stone/ Little Red Rooster/ Around And Around
From Wikipedia: The Rolling Stones’ 1965 Far East Tour was the first concert tour of Oceania by the band. The tour commenced on 22 January and concluded on 16 February 1965.
This series of concerts was a package tour with Roy Orbison, The Newbeats, and Ray Columbus & the Invaders, and was promoted by Harry M. Miller. In Australia, there were different local support acts in each city.
Parts of the Sydney leg of the tour were filmed by Movietone News and screened in cinemas. Footage in Stones Roll Down Under included their arrival at Sydney Airport, part of the airport press conference and part of the performance of “Not Fade Away” from their first Sydney show.
