Rockin out in Fairfield

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

I really dread the fact that music I listened to as a kid is now considered ”oldies music”.  But it is still cool to see how music from Buddy Holly provided a foundation for the rock and roll era that followed.  Seriously… he was an inspiration to the Beatles and Bob Dylan.  We’re talking songs like ”Peggy Sue” and ”That’ll be the Day”; straight forward, timeless music.  So I’m really excited about the Winter Dance Party Tour coming to the Sondheim Center in Fairfield.  In talking with others who have seen the show, this is a high energy show full of Buddy’s best hits.  I hear that John Mueller, the guy who plays Buddy, is phenomenal.  Even Buddy’s family members say that this guy has Buddy’s voice and mannerisms down pat.  This is gonna be one feel good event!  So you bet I’ve got my tickets and hope to see you there on Jan. 24th rockin’ out in the aisles!
