Hollywood 1735 Vine Street Hollywood, CA 90028 Phone: 310-325-9997 ABOUT THE NEW MUSIC AWARDS: The New Music Awards known as "New Music's Biggest Night" brings the radio and music industry together for one night. Celebrating artists and bands as well record labels, and radio stations and its programmers. The New Music Awards is proud to be the first and only award show not weighted down with the politics and corruption of the corporate world, but an award show showing the true talent which exists in the music industry today. ABOUT AVALON: In 1964, The Beatles had their first West Coast performance. Born as the Hollywood Playhouse, the building opened as one of Los Angeles' first and most lavish legitimate theatres on January 24, 1927 with a production of "Alias The Deacon," starring 1920s matinee idol Burton Churchill. Many theatrical productions followed, including the West Coast premiere of Ibsen's "An Enemy Of The People." The advent of radio brought many CBS Radio Network programs to its stage, including the infamous Fanny Brice with her "Baby Snooks" show and Lucille Ball's "My Favorite Husband." With the dawning of the '40s came a new name and spirit. Now called the El Capitan Theatre, the building opened with "Ken Murray's Blackouts," a live variety/burlesque show which played 3,844 performances--a record that has remained unbroken since 1949. In 1963, the building was again renamed, dubbed The Jerry Lewis Theatre to house the comedian's weekly ABC-TV variety series. When the program failed, ABC raised a more classic title onto the marquee, The Hollywood Palace, and launched its hit "Hollywood Palace" series with a kaleidoscope of show business greats- -from Judy Garland to Louis Armstrong. Through seven successful years three things remained constant: season premieres hosted by Bing Crosby, a weekly all-star line-up unrivaled by any television presentation before or since, and ratings that made Nielsen history. The Hollywood Palace also continued to feature music concerts, among them The Beatles' noted performance (over the years, each ex-Beatle would also take the stage as a solo artist). !" Though the "Hollywood Palace" series was canceled in 1970, the name and the theatre lived on as an ABC studio where variety shows were produced featuring Fred Astaire, Jimmy Durante and Pearl Bailey. Subsequently, Merv Griffin would settle in with his popular talk show. Rebuilt as a multimedia facility, The Palace became the consummate concert venue and nightclub in town. As a five-night-a-week mega dance club featuring the largest light and sound system in Los Angeles, The Palace was the West Coast version of New York's infamous Studio 54. Prince, Madonna, The Rolling Stones and others regularly came to party at The Palace.

Reviews Keith Loria, on theatermania.com, called the show “a tender glimpse into the Hineses’ rise to fame and a touching tribute to a brother.” Benjamin Tomchik wrote in Broadway World, that the show “seems determined not only to love the audience, but to entertain them, and it succeeds at doing just that! While Tappin' Thru Life does have some flaws, it's hard to find anyone who isn't won over by Hines showmanship, humor, timing and above all else, talent.” In The Washington Post, Nelson Pressley wrote, “’Tappin’ is basically a breezy, personable concert. The show doesn’t flinch from hard-core nostalgia; the heart-on-his-sleeve Hines is too sentimental for that. It’s frankly schmaltzy, and it’s barely written — it zips through selected moments of Hines’s life, creating a mood more than telling a story. it’s a pleasure to be in the company of a shameless, ebullient vaudeville heart.” Maurice Hines Is .

  • King Sister Yvonne Burch Dies at 89
    King Sister Yvonne Burch dies at 89 (AP) – 4 hours ago SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Yvonne King Burch, who gained early fame as one of the singing King Sisters during the big band era before launching her entire extended musical clan into show business as the King Family, has died. She was 89. Burch died in a Santa Barbara hospital Sunday, where she was taken for injuries she suffered in a fall last week, said her daughter, Tina Cole. Burch was the matriarch of the King Family, a popular and enduring show business dynasty. She spent three decades singing and recording with the King Sisters, one of the most popular vocal groups of the 1930s and 1940s. A Grammy nomination for their Capitol Records album "Imagination" capped the group's career in 1959. In 1963, Burch conceived and produced a benefit concert with her sisters and three dozen relatives including brothers, husbands, wives, aunts, uncles and children that marked the debut of the King Family. The King Family appeared on "The Hollywood Palace" before headlining their own TV special. Strong fan response led to two variety series and 17 specials during the 1960s and 1970s. The family appeared on "The Ed Sullivan Show" and performed with entertainment legends, including Bing Crosby and Dean Martin. Besides landing a national concert tour, the clan recorded five albums for Warner Brothers. The family showcased its multigenerational talent with performances by the King Cousins and the King Kiddies. The King Sisters performed and toured with big bands led by Horace Heidt and Artie Shaw before starting their own orchestra with Luise King's husband, Alvino Rey.

A chance meeting between 2 old friends at Dartford railway station marked the beginning of 50 years of rock and roll. In the early 1950s, Keith Richards and Mick Jagger were childhood friends and classmates at Wentworth Primary School in Kent until their families moved apart.[8] In 1960, the pair met again on their way to college at Dartford railway station. The Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters records that Jagger carried revealed a mutual interest. They began forming a band with Dick Taylor and Brian Jones from Blues Incorporated. This band also contained two other future members of the Rolling Stones: Ian Stewart and Charlie Watts.[11] So how did the name come about? Well according to Richards, Jones christened the band during a phone call to Jazz News.
