Nothing happened today so......
March 28, 1957
In his performance at the International Theater in Chicago, Elvis wears a $2500 gold lame suit that the Colonel has had made up by Nudie Cohen, a Brooklyn emigre famous for the extravagance of the sequined suits he designs for country music stars like Hank Snow and Ferlin Huskey. The show grosses $32,000 from a crowd of 12,000.
Wow, that is the first post I have done where words needed 3 accent marks! LOL!
I always wondered why they were called "Nudie" suits! You always learn on The Click!
