  • Pne to Commemorate the 50Th Anniversary of Elvis Presley's
    2901 East Hastings Street, Vancouver, B.C. Canada V5K 5J1 Telephone: 604 253-2311 Fax: 604 251-7753 www.pne.ca FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NEWS RELEASE August 9, 2007 PNE TO COMMEMORATE THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF ELVIS PRESLEY’S APPEARANCE AT THE PNE VANCOUVER, B.C. - It’s a little known fact that the King of Rock and Roll only played three shows ever outside of the United States. That three-city tour happened in 1957 and Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver were swept away with Elvis-mania as a result. Newspapers ran front-page stories about the King in Canada, and about the corruption of teenage girls and “astronomical ticket prices” (tickets to the Vancouver show were $3.75). And, on August 31st, 1957, the city of Vancouver came to a standstill as 26,000 fans packed Empire Stadium to see Elvis Presley perform live. To commemorate this historic concert the PNE is proud to present an all-star tribute show featuring local entertainment industry icon Red Robinson, who hosted the 1957 Vancouver show and today remains a close friend of Elvis’ Graceland organization, regularly appearing and emceeing events at the Memphis shrine. Red, along with local music industry legend Bruce Allen, an Elvis memorabilia collector and known expert on the King, will host an evening of tribute to Elvis. A very special guest of the evening will be Joe Esposito, Elvis’ longtime friend, business manager, and confidant. Joe, who has always been one of the best-known "Memphis Mafia" members, first met Elvis in 1959, while both men were in the army.

  • The Geographic Dimensions of Buddy Holly's Meteoric Career
    Romig: "Not Fade Away" “Not Fade Away”: The Geographic Dimensions of Buddy Holly’s Meteoric Career Kevin Romig 8 Produced by The Berkeley Electronic Press, 2011 1 Buddy Holly and radio host, Red Robinson, October 1957. Courtesy Red Robinson. Journal of Texas Music History, Vol. 11 [2011], Iss. 1, Art. 3 The career of native Texan Buddy Holly is often described as “meteoric.” Within 18 months of his frst hit,“That’ll Be the Day,” which charted on the Billboard Top 40 list in 1957, Holly released seven other songs that made the Billboard Top 40.1 He and his band toured extensively throughout the United States, Canada, Australia, and Great Britain, while many contemporaries, such as Elvis Presley, did not tour much, if at all, outside of the 9 United States. Holly quickly established himself as a rock and roll pioneer before his untimely death in an airplane crash on February 3, 1959, while on tour in the American Midwest.2 Holly was only 22 years old when he perished on the ill-fated fight along with fellow pop stars Ritchie Valens and J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson.3 Holly, his band members, and his manager/recording engineer, Norman Petty, had worked tirelessly during the mid- to late 1950s writing and recording new material. Holly’s innovative and driven approach to producing catchy tunes placed him frmly within the upper echelon of rock and roll artists at a time when the market was crowded with aspiring musicians. Te bespectacled and somewhat awkward-looking Holly was perhaps an unlikely candidate to become a teen idol, especially considering that he was following in the footsteps of such stars as Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, and Jerry Lee Lewis.
