On February 7, 1964, Pan Am Yankee Clipper flight 101 from
London Heathrow lands at New York’s Kennedy Airport—
and “Beatlemania” arrives.

It was the first visit to the United States by the Beatles, a
British rock-and-roll quartet that had just scored its first No.
1 U.S. hit six days before with “I Want to Hold Your Hand.”
At Kennedy, the “Fab Four”—dressed in mod suits and
sporting their trademark pudding bowl haircuts—were
greeted by 3,000 screaming fans who caused a near riot
when the boys stepped off their plane and onto American
soil.

Renowned entertainer Tony Orlando (79) is set to bid farewell to
the stage with a series of unforgettable North American concerts.

In an announcement made today, the legendary artist revealed
the details of his "Farewell Concerts" tour, promising fans an
emotional and memorable journey through his remarkable career.

The tour will kick off with a three-night extravaganza at the South
Point Casino in Las Vegas, NV, from January 19th to the 21st.

Following the opening shows, Orlando will continue to captivate audiences in various cities, including Niagara Falls, ON, Des
Plaines and St.Charles, IL, Atlantic City, NJ, and Uncasville, CT.

One of the most poignant moments of the tour will undoubtedly
be Tony Orlando’s final performance in Las Vegas, where he has headlined for an impressive 51 years on the iconic Strip.

Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977)

Singer and actor, Elvis Presley, known as the "King of Rock
and Roll", is regarded as one of the most significant cultural  
figures of the 20th century.

Rod Stewart raised the asking price of his Beverly Hills
mansion to $80 million more than six months after listing
the three-acre Los Angeles estate with tennis courts.

“White Christmas,” written by the formidable composer and
lyricist Irving Berlin, receives its world premiere on December
25, 1941 on Bing Crosby’s weekly NBC radio program, The
Kraft Music Hall. It went on to become one of the most
commercially successful singles of all time.
