		Frankie Avalon Holiday Show - Wed Dec 4 - If you can’t remember a time when Frankie Avalon wasn’t a part of your life, you aren’t alone. This talented performer can look back on a career that spans three generations of music, television and motion pictures which he feels is due primarily to the loyalty and trust of his audience. Frankie’s years as a teenage Idol have been succeeded by maturity and professionalism. He is currently one of the busiest nightclub performers in the country, playing the nations finest supper clubs and headlining at top Las Vegas hotels. Frankie has a long string of Gold Record Million-Seller singles and albums. In 1959 alone Frankie had six solid hits that were in the Top 40 and his music became one of the defining sounds of the pre-Beatles rock and roll. With smashing hits as Venus, one of the biggest hits of the era, De De Dinah, Bobby Socks to Stockings, Gingerbread, and Just Ask Your Heart, Frankie quickly became a motion picture star, appearing in more than 30 movies. Frankie will be warming our hearts and spirit this holiday season with his holiday show. The performance is filled with his hits and the holiday music we all love to hear.
