Canadian coming to learn about 1959 music tour
Sevan Garabedian will travel to Coshocton to research a famous rock‘ n’ roll tour from 1959 that was called the Winter Dance Party Tour. It became infamous for the plane crash that killed some of its headliners on Feb. 3, 1959.
Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J. P.“ The Big Bopper” were killed in a plane crash after their show at the Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa. It became known as“ The Day the Music Died,” coined famously in Don McLean’ s song“ American Pie.”
The tour continued without missing even one show as Jimmy Clanton and Frankie Avalon joined in the spirit of“ the show must go on” and as a tribute to their fallen friends and musicians. The tour played the Coshocton Armory on Feb. 12, 1959.
“ I have had the pleasure of interviewing many of the teenagers that were there that night, many of whom took pictures, have autographs, et cetera,” Garabedian said.
He plans on visiting the armory during his stop in Coshocton on Sunday and Monday, June 8-9.

Words of Wisdom Real estate agent’ s
paperwork requirements:
There are laws that require real agents to present certain paperwork to new clients prior to showing or listing properties. The most important thing I want you to learn is that the state of Ohio requires the real estate agent to give you a copy of ANYTHING you sign. Get your copies!!
Before showing new buyer clients any houses agents should be presenting their company’ s Consumer Guide and Buyer Broker Representation Agreements. These forms will explain how the agent will represent the client and how the client will pay the agents. Once you sign these, please, please be sure to get your copy!
