Stockton Goes to the Beach Presents Ronnie Spector of the Ronettes

Stockton Goes to the Beach Presents Ronnie Spector of the Ronettes Coming to the Cape May Convention Center July 29 For Immediate Release Wednesday, June 26, 2013 Contact: Suzé DiPietro Interim Director, Stockton PAC Galloway Township, NJ 08205 [email protected] (609) 652-4927 Galloway Township, NJ – The 12th annual Stockton Goes to the Beach Summer Concert Series continues at the Cape May Convention Center in Cape May, NJ for the summer of 2013, with Ronnie Spector and her revolutionary performing style lighting up the stage on Monday, July 29 at 8 p.m. Spector’s sensuality, dress, attitude and sound have served as an inspiration for a generation of rock ‘n’ roll women. Tickets are priced at $35 and may be ordered online at www.capemaycity.com or by calling 1-855-708-9699 or by going to the Cape May Convention Center. Beginning in 1963, Ronnie Spector - as lead singer of the ultimate girl group, The Ronettes - recorded a long string of classic pop hits: powerful, poignant teen anthems such as the Grammy Award-winning “Walking in the Rain,” “Do I Love You,” “Baby I Love You,” “The Best Part of Breaking Up,” “I Can Hear Music,” and the international Number One smash, “Be My Baby.” Only a few artists in history have been capable of defining an entire era in pop music. Ronnie Spector is one of those artists: the embodiment of the heart, soul, and passion of female rock and roll in the 1960s. And to this day, no one has ever surpassed Ronnie's powerful Colpix label.

INTRODUCTION A newspaper article dated January 29th predicted that a new technological discovery, "[i]f introduced into this or any other country [would bring] an end to copyrights."'2 Was this new discovery some super-descrambler, an untraceable peer-to-peer system? No, it was "a new and extraordinary discovery made in Prussia by which printed works of any kind [could] be copied with perfect accuracy, and copies multiplied with no further expense than the cost of paper and press-work.",3 The January 29th in question was that of-1842! This incident demonstrates that when one contemplates contemporary technology/copyright issues, indeed "everything old is new again", and that perhaps there are lessons to be learned from days long gone.
